There are 36 holes in total on a flat terrain, North & East Course and West & South Course. Fairways are relatively wide and trees separating the holes are few and small, so you don’t feel pressured on your drives and you might feel this is like an easy resort course. But some holes have strategically placed water hazards, making them demanding. Also, all par 3s are great with excellent layouts. The former nane is Preident Country Club.

An almost straight hole with the green swung to the left at the end of the fairway. The front and the right sides of the green border a lake. The green is very narrow in depth. When the pin is on the right, the green between water in the front and rough at the back is only 15 yards deep, and when the pin is on the left, bunkers at the back come into play.
 
6th　Par 3　177 yards
A very beautiful layout shooting over a lake. The green’ s front side faces water with bunkers on the both sides, which can intimidate even advanced players.

A short dogleg to the right with a lake on the right. The tee shot is over the lake. The contrast between the lake and various bunkers around the hole is pretty.

A par 3 over a lake. The front and right sides of the green border the lake and the green is very wide.

This par 3 also is over a lake. Bunkers guarding the green make the hole challenging.
 
18th　Par 4　441 yards
A long, slightly bending dogleg to the left with water on the left side of the fairway right up to the front of the green. This hole is positioned on the right side of a big lake with the West & South’s 18th hole on the left side, sharing the same green. The clubhouse looks beautiful seen from the hole.

It takes 1 hour by car from Central Bangkok. The course will be closed in November 2022 until the new owner appears.

The picture shows 10 people, 5 players and 5 caddies, on one green, which is rare in other countries but not in Thailand.
