Description:
On 30th of March 2012 we play the Golf Spectacle Jarabacoa in Jarabacoa.
Jarabacoa Golf Course.
It's been REALLY wet up here for a few weeks, and between the weather and our tours, we haven't had a chance to burn any worms on the links (and couldn't make it for the Charity golf event at Playa Dorado ). But this morning, even though overcast, looked promising, so Alida and I headed out to Campo de Golf in Jarabacoa, our local course.
This is a fine little course, 9 holes with displaced tee boxes, making 18. I'm told it's the only "mountain" course in all of the Antilles, literally carved out of some rugged hills. It's a modest course as far as amenities go, but fairly inexpensive to play, and big bang-for-the-buck in fun. It's also a very unforgiving course, with some brutal bunkers, narrow fairways and steeply elevated greens. Some of the low-handicap local members I play with don't even have a driver in their bag.
Carts are available, but I love walking 9 holes more than riding 18. Great exercise and a beautiful environment.
I took some pics of the holes, except one-it started to rain on the way to the 7th tee, and I forgot. Mea Culpa.
Directions: drive toward Jarabacoa from the autopista, and prior to getting to Jarabacoa turn left @ the signs for Salto Jimenoa and Campa de Golf, turn left again at the Salto and Campo signs, and go about ½ mile. The entrance is on your left.
You come through entrance and see the "Clubhouse" on the left (it's really more of an open bar/snack shop with banos).
