The
Fazio Course at Barefoot Resort is routed through a spectacular
piece of property in the heart of Barefoot Resort. Like many
European courses, the course does not return to the clubhouse
after nine holes. It is not a British linksland course, but
rather a classic Lowcountry course, filled with live oaks,
pines, sand, natural areas and native grasses.
Located between the Dye Course and the Love Course, the Fazio
course has been strategically designed, incorporating extensive
tree cover and many lakes into the landscaping.
Waste areas and formal bunkers have been handcrafted and placed
for visual and strategic effect, while natural elevation changes
add a sense of drama and excitement the to golfing round. Water
features can be seen on 15 holes, yet many lakes are in
out-of-play areas to ensure playability.
Tee and fairways consist of GN-1, which is a hybrid
turf developed by Greg Norman Turf. The approach areas consist
of Tif - sport Bermuda grass. The greens surfaces are an A-1
Bentgrass and the rough areas are 419 Bermuda grass.
The Fazio Course is a Par 71, approximately 6,834 yards long.
The course will have four sets of tees to give players of all
skill levels the opportunity to play a course of championship
caliber and still have the right balance of fun and challenge.
