Tom Doak
This public layout, directly across the street from Royal
Melbourne, inherited some holes from the original Royal Melbourne layout and
gained some new ones when Dr. Alister MacKenzie was in the neighborhood. Some beautiful
(but dilapidated) greenside bunkering was built by Mick Morcom, but there is no
fairway bunkering whatsoever—the course also lacks the native grasses and plants
between the holes that make its neighbors so beautiful. The uphill par-4 14th is
the best hole on the property. Rating: 3 (March 1993)
