Cynthiana Country Club is a nine-hole course in Cynthiana, Kentucky, and the only golf and swimming pool facility in Harrison County. The layout runs across rolling hills with open views, taking in two large lakes along with a mix of wooded ground and neighboring homes.
Five sets of tees keep the overall yardage manageable, while small target areas add a measure of difficulty, making the course playable for a range of skill levels.
Instruction is available from PGA-accredited teaching professional Hank Whalen, who has studied the game since high school and taught professionally for eight years. His lessons emphasize a simple, enjoyable approach and are adapted to each player, from beginners to low handicappers.
