It is a traditional par 72 course with four par 3 holes and four par 5 holes. Tifton 419 Bermuda grass has been used for the fairways, Rye grass for the semi-rough, and Penn Cross for the greens. The course occupies half of the wetlands available in Vale de Parra, with the other section designated a wild bird and wildlife Nature Reserve.
