Every hole tells a story, and the Back 9 is entering its next chapter. Here’s a look at where we started, and where the Master Plan is taking us.

As winter approaches, the team has been working tirelessly to advance as much Master Plan progress as possible before Thanksgiving.

It has been an intense stretch, with our Director of Agronomy, Sam, and his team putting in long days and seven-day workweeks to maintain momentum and keep the project on schedule. Their commitment and effort during this final push are greatly appreciated as we prepare the course for the winter months.

We’ve had a busy few weeks at DGC!

✅ All fairways are now seeded (ahead of our Sept. 15 deadline!)
✅ Greens 1–9, 10, 11, 13 & 18 are already sodded — with the rest on track to finish by next week, meeting our Oct. 1 goal.

💧 Irrigation has been installed in the chipping & short game areas, with more improvements coming to the driving range in the weeks ahead.

Week 9 of the master plan — the fairways are seeded and the course is taking shape. Bunkers aren’t just hazards; they’re part of the strategy, shaping sight lines and creating deception from the tee. Exciting to see it all come to life!

The transformation keeps moving forward: turf is laid, edges are refined, and the cycle continues to the back nine.

Greens are going down! ⛳️ Sodding is underway on the North Course, and we’re excited to see the vision taking shape.

Six weeks in, cruising through summer with big progress so far, plenty more to come.

Five weeks in… and the transformation is unreal. You’ve got to see it to believe it.

This is the place to be!
