The Player Course

World-renowned player and golf course designer Gary Player opened the second course at Lyman Orchards. "The Player Course" is sprinkled with deciduous trees and classic white pines. The routing of this course takes players through the Apple Orchards and offers ample elevation changes throughout the design.

This course can be played up to 6,600 yards and offers a stellar mix of par 3’s that average 210 yards from the tips. The Player Course rewards well-positioned drives and accurate iron play with 34 bunkers protecting relatively small greens.
