The Orchards Executive Golf Course

Built in 1979 and designed by Mel Anderson, The Orchards is a nine-hole executive course that originally served as an auxiliary layout to Alvamar Country Club, now The Jayhawk Club. In the latter half of 2018, the course underwent a comprehensive renovation aimed at improving the greens and enlarging the tee boxes to add length.

Measuring 1,943 yards, the course plays shorter than most but asks for accuracy. Narrow, tree-lined fairways thread past creeks and thick rough, and approaches finish at small, tucked greens that can be difficult to read, making for a test suited to a range of skill levels.
