CAPE GIRARDEAU, MISSOURI – Dalhousie Golf Club, a stunning Nicklaus Design in Cape Girardeau, was ranked as the “#1 Course in Missouri” in Golf Digest’s “Best in State” Ranking for 2007/2008. The ranking, which was published in the May 2007 issue of Golf Digest, featured the rankings of the top courses in each state. The courses recognized on this prestigious list were ranked by Golf Digest panelists who evaluate courses based on numerous criteria such as shot values, design variety, and conditioning to name a few.
Dalhousie Golf Club is no stranger to Golf Digest accolades. Upon opening in 2002, Dalhousie was recognized by Golf Digest as one of the “Best New Private Clubs” in the country.
“Our vision with Dalhousie was to create a truly special private club experience that would be regarded as one of the top clubs in the region,” stated golf course owner and managing member Cord Dombrowski. “This new accolade truly confirms that our vision has become a reality and we are honored to be ranked #1 in Missouri – a state that is home to a number of truly exceptional clubs.”
Dalhousie Golf Club is a private club that offers a unique “no dues” National Membership program that makes Dalhousie an intriguing option for those golfers who may already be affiliated with a country club or for those living outside of Cape Girardeau county looking to become a “National Member” of Dalhousie. Members at Dalhousie Golf Club enjoy the spectacular 7,242 yard, par 72 layout and will celebrate the summer opening of a new 20,853 square foot clubhouse, aptly named the Dalhousie Manor. Inspired by the classical Scottish-style manor houses of old, Dalhousie Manor will feature old world charm blended with contemporary compliments and amenities. Members of Dalhousie also have access to on-site member cottages and “Dalhousie at Water’s Edge”. “Dalhousie at Water’s Edge” provides members with additional overnight accommodations, private access to ten acres of well-stocked fishing ponds, indoor and outdoor pavilions for wedding receptions, meetings and other special events. All of which provide welcoming amenities for visiting members and their guests.
Dombrowski states: “From its inception, our goal has been to create a golf course for Middle America that celebrates the great traditions of the game, while taking advantage of the remarkable advances of modern technology. We've tried to make Dalhousie embody the aesthetics and strategic components that great designers like George Thomas and A W Tillinghast brought to the game, while incorporating the concepts of the modern era of golf course design. Under the direction of Gary Nicklaus and the staff of Nicklaus Design, I feel we have blended the past with the future in terms of a classic golf course in the 21st century."
