Style of Play
The Reserve has a classic resort feel — shorter but somewhat challenging, clear targets, and greens designed to reward solid approach shots. Water and bunkering are used to create interest and strategy rather than extreme difficulty, so golfers can choose when to be aggressive and when to play conservatively. It’s a course where good swings are rewarded, but wayward shots are often still recoverable.
Golf Shop & Check-In
Check-in for The Reserve and Crane’s Bend is handled at the golf shop located in the Marketplace area of the resort. This shop serves as the main point for:
- Tee time check-in for both courses
- Range access and practice information
- Purchase of golf balls, apparel, and accessories
- Assistance with rental sets and course details
For guests staying on property, the Marketplace location makes it easy to combine golf with other resort activities and amenities.
Driving Range & Practice Facilities
The Reserve is supported by a full driving range and practice area, available for:
- Pre-round warm-up
- Dedicated practice sessions
- Short-game and putting work
The range is open during the day and fully lighted for night-time use, giving golfers the option to practice after the sun goes down or tune up their game before an evening round.

Rental Clubs
The Reserve offers multiple rental-club options so guests can travel light but still play with quality equipment:

Both options provide a complete set of clubs suited for the course, making it simple for occasional golfers, families, and fly-in guests to get on the tee without bringing their own gear.
