Overview
A past member of our America's 100 Greatest list, Tullymore has exciting layout variety with five par-5s and five par-3s. The course winds through 800 acres of woods and wetlands and features the unique "muscle" bunkers and bowled greens that architect Jim Engh became known for when he was designing some of the most distinctive new golf courses in the late 1990s and 2000s. One of two courses at the resort, Tullymore has previously been ranked for 18 years on our 100 Greatest Public, debuting at No. 14 in 2003.

Review
“The greens at Tullymore are superb. 18 completely different greens unlike one another. Boomerang, double tiered, punchbowl, long and skinny etc... A bevy of pin positions can vastly change how challenging the course plays. Enough undulation and contouring to help challenge the better player while still being playable for the weekend golfer. Quite a bit of variety in hole length and design. Long par 3s with large greens, and shorter par 3s with small target greens. Good variety of dogleg right and left and a number of short par 4s which are fun to play as they require the golfer to think strategically how much risk/reward they're willing to accept. The course winds through nature and feels like the golfer is secluded. Although there is great shot variety from tee to green, around the greens most of the greens are surrounded by rough, which somewhat dictates the type of shot needed. While there are a few houses on the property, they do not distract from the overall feel of the golf course. This is a course that could be played everyday as each approach and tee shot can be played a variety of different ways. A good challenge for the better player while still being quite fair and playable to the average golfer. Greens roll true and fairways fast and firm."

“Course is in incredible condition. Greens and fairways and bunkers have an elite private course feel as they are manicure to perfection. All after hole gives you so many shot options and ways to attack a hole. Front nine really requires some shot making and shot thinking. Every hole is exciting and you can’t wait to see what comes next."

“Tullymore has a great combination of individual hole designs that combine for an overall complimentary layout. It uses the topography well and offers risk vs reward choices throughout the round. From the back tees, it will challenge good players."
