Far from the heavily manicured, artificial layouts of traditional country clubs, this 9-hole countryside loop is designed to tread lightly upon the earth. The course seamlessly weaves through the native land. Drawing inspiration from St Andrews and Pinehurst, it offers golfers a sanctuary where the lullaby of rustling grass and the symphony of chirping birds provide the perfect backdrop for every swing.<\/p>\n<p>Built with the same commitment to sustainability that drives our Farm Station Projects, the greens are nourished purely and organically, without harsh chemical interventions. Whether you are unwinding after a corporate retreat at <a href=\"https:\/\/mtnstep.com\/New\/swiss-grove\/\">Swiss Grove<\/a> or enjoying a quiet morning before exploring the ranch, the course offers a pure, unhurried round. Here, every sunrise tee-time brings the promise of a new beginning, allowing players to experience the intricate dance of the game while standing on soil that has been carefully and thoughtfully preserved.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Hole by Hole Flyover<\/h2>\n<div class=\"wp-block-spacer\" style=\"height: 30px;\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hole 1<\/h3>\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide are-vertically-aligned-center\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center\" style=\"flex-basis: 75%;\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video src=\"https:\/\/mtnstep.com\/New\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Hole-1.mp4\" controls=\"controls\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\"><\/video><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center\" style=\"flex-basis: 25%;\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image hole-map-figure\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mtnstep.com\/New\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Hole-1.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mtnstep.com\/New\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Hole-1.jpg\" alt=\"Hole 1 Map\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center hole-snippet\"><strong>78 Yards<\/strong><br \/>A gentle opener to ease you into the round.
