About Continental Country Club

With options like white, gold, and hybrid white/gold tees, it caters to a variety of skill levels, allowing players to choose their challenge.

What to Expect
The course is suitable for a wide range of abilities, but mid to high handicappers may find the layout particularly accommodating. Pay attention to the Bermuda fairways; they're forgiving on your missed hits, but be ready for some tricky lies on the bent grass greens, especially if you’re not used to them. Some holes may require a bit of strategy, so don't just grip it and rip it — think about where you want to place your next shot to avoid trouble. The overall course conditions are usually kept in great shape, but during the summer months, be prepared for some humidity that can affect your energy levels.
