Hole 13, Par 4

This is one of our favourite holes, though it might confound players who see it the first time. While it goes away from the ocean, players who look back will see the water and the previous holes in all their glory. The key to this hole is the hill that is in front of the green, meaning you’ll be able to see only the top of the flag from the fairway. It felt like the most interesting thing to do was to create a saucer or bowl green behind the hill and create some Old World charm. If you’re short on your approach, you’ll watch the ball come back to you. But for those who make the shot, there will be a child-like anticipation in seeing the result. It is a different kind of hole from anything else on the course and is part of the package that makes Cabot Cliffs come together.
