Review Summary:

Beautiful landscape, interesting setup, good combination of long & short holes, dogleg left and right, semi island green. Second round would be even more fun as you get familiar to those risk and reward holes. Conditioning is good and well above average......

Introduction

This is the closest course to downtown. Just 25 minutes away. A cab costs around Rmb 60 per way.
The course was built by a local firm – Poly Company which mainly due with estate development. Recently , this company bought the Mingya Golf & Country Club in Nanchang.
It consisted of 36 holes, the older North Course plus the newly opened South course (Mar2008)

Club Facilities & Service

The clubhouse is not huge but adequate for 36 holes. Well decorated and stylish. When you step into the lobby, you’ll see the reception on the right. Restaurant and proshop on the left side. Down to the basement, there you see the changing room and starter. Locker is big and spacious. Food is ok and price is reasonable.

Course Design

ChongqingPoly-Design
I played the North course. It is hilly with much change of elevation. And most of the time, teeshot are downslope and uphill approach. Long carry is also required to clear water, raverns. Combinations of doglegs, semi island greens,short or long holes. 4 out of 5 Par 3 are long. No excessive water and bunker but alway appears when there is needed. The designer makes the fairway look tighter than it is. Infact, they are reasonable wide unless your ball goes really wild. Greens are big but not easy in reading lines.
The picture is the signature hole #7. Beautiful, isn’t it?

Beautiful landscape, interesting setup, good combination of long & short holes, dogleg left and right, semi island green. Second round would be even more fun as you get familiar to those risk and reward holes.
Conditioning is good and well above average.
Views could be better if there ain’t so many villas, construction and lamp posts.
I don’t have enough time to try the South course. From what I see, it is flatter and wetter compare with the North.

Nice course, challenging & funI would say, deserve for an Eagle 05 / 08

Surprisngly, there are only slightly more than a thousand local golfers in Chongqing, but there you found five golf clubs around (The sixth is coming shortly) No wonder it is so quiet even when I played on weekend. If you have a chance to visit Chongqing, make sure you try the local hotpot, it is fantastic. And, there are some historic sightseeing spot worth to hang around.
