Most Secluded Golf Course?


Recommended Posts

After reading this article "The 9 most secluded golf courses in the world" I was wondering if anyone else knew of a course that is more secluded than these.

 

My first thought of a course that is more secluded was Highland Links Golf Course in Nova Scotia, I don't know how that isn't on the list but that is beside the point. I was just curious of any other courses that you see as secluded.

Forest Dunes in Roscommon, Mi is pretty secluded. Right in the middle of a national forest. For the final 15-20 minutes of the drive in you may see 1 home.

I think you're getting "secluded" and "exclusive" mixed up. Shadow Creek is definitely not secluded...

You won't see a thing once your inside the gates of Shadow Creek.......it feels secluded as it gets ....

I'm not sure the author even knows what secluded means. Is it a golf course farthest away from civilization, is it a golf course farthest away from another golf course, or is is somehow Augusta National?
[/quote] Yea I'm sort of confused by their definition of secluded as well.

Check out Bigwin Island GC, Lake of Bays, Ontario

Got to take a boat to the course. Island was a very popular resort in the 40s-60s with celebrities.

Caye Chapel Golf Club in Belize has to get some consideration. Just an island in the middle of the Atlantic with a golf course...that's it.

wow, that has got to be the most secluded I have seen, too bad by the look of the aerial on google maps it looks like it is no longer operating.

Yeah, weird. First it's course not near civilization and then it's courses that don't have homes or office buildings overlooking it.

Not sure how Bear Dance is on there. You can see the course from I-25. Devils Thumb in Delta, CO is the most secluded course I've played in CO.

Wolf Creek in Mesquite and Bandon are in their own worlds.
