What sets Renaissance apart is the rare convergence of classic golf, golf traditions and a golf course designed for today’s modern technology. The golf course at Renaissance takes much of its design inspiration from the great Scottish links of the 19th century and landmark American layouts of the 1920s. Some holes are inspired by British design classics while others evoke the aura of great “traditional” American golf architecture. All will combine to write another chapter in the “retro” design movement. As Ron Whitten, Architectural Editor for Golf Digest has written, “Brian Silva is the leader of the retro design movement.”

The course blends a unique mixture of golf holes ranging from wide open links-style holes with large waste bunkers and fescue-lined rolling fairways to classic New England style tree-lined parkland holes. Alternate routes of play are the order of the day throughout the course. Generously wide fairways punctuated by random bunkering and putting surfaces raised above their surrounds call for a variety of approach shots while close cut chipping areas at the greenside require still more shot invention on the part of those whose approaches have strayed.

The golf course at Renaissance Golf Club is a brilliant blend of the best “natural” elements inherent in the site with the playing characteristics that make the game’s classic layouts so timeless and enjoyable.
