Casa de Campo Golf
|
Casa de Campo's Peter Dye-designed golf courses are among the best in the world. The "Teeth of the Dog" has seven holes right on the ocean. It consistently ranks in Golf Magazine's "Top100 Courses in the world" and is considered the finest course in the Caribbean. The "Links" is a challenging inland course; and the new "Dye Fore" perched atop the bluffs of the Chavón River, is a masterpiece destined to rival the "Teeth of the Dog." Tee times are available
from 7:20 am to 5:30 pm. |

| Pete Dye Golf Creation | After five years under construction, Pete Dye's newest creation at Casa de Campo opens for play to great anticipation. Pete - with wife Alice at his side, created Dye Fore 500-feet above the Chavón River. Dye Fore has spectacular views of the Caribbean Sea, the mountains, the Chavón River below and the Altos de Chavón artists' village. Visually, the course is intimidating and the par 3's are incredible. Although very playable from the forward tees, this course will stand the test of time as it measures over 7,800 yards from the back tee's. The Dye Fore golf course provides golfers spectacular views of the quaint artisan village of Altos de Chavón, This new course, will be the first planted from its inception -- with two new strains of grass that thrive on salt water. | |
