Highlands Falls Yacht Club

Okay, this has absolutely nothing to do with the golf course per say, but it is another example of how we utilize the course for member enjoyment and its just plain cool! The Highlands Falls Yacht Club has formed and will meet every Monday from 9 am to 10:30 am at the lake between #8 and #9. Anyone that wants to participate or that is interested in operating remote controlled boats is welcome and encouraged to come by. The group is growing and is already the LARGEST Yacht Club in Highlands!

Here are some pics from this weeks gathering.

Joe Lee was an amazing and modest man who showed little interest in promoting himself in his work. Instead, he built his career in golf architecture through word of mouth with hard work and dedication. Lee’s clients, his timeless designs, and the endless stream of satisfied golfers that play his courses each year are what brought fame and recognition to his craft. His courses are as much a work of art as architecture, featuring graceful landscapes and challenging holes while highlighting the natural beauty of the surrounding area. Over the course of a career spanning more than 50 years, Joe Lee designed and renovated over 200 golf courses. To this day Highlands Falls remains one of the most well preserved examples of his work.
