The Golf Club at Chaparral Pines is an award-winning, 18-hole, par 72 golf course that has been honored by Golf Digest as one of the top 10 new private golf courses in the U.S. The course was designed by former U.S. Open and PGA Champion David Graham and noted course architect Gary Panks.

Recently ranked in the top 20 of Golfweeks’ “100 Best Modern Golf Courses in the U.S.”, The Rim’s 18-hole, par 71 golf course represents one of the finest collaborations of the renowned Tom Weiskopf and Jay Morrish design team.
