Origins

Tallwoods was conceived as the golf component of a substantial residential development on former cattle-farming land near Hallidays Point. American architect Michael Hurdzan was commissioned to route the course through the property's steep eucalyptus-covered terrain.

Design Philosophy

Hurdzan used the site's large elevation changes, native vegetation and existing landforms as defining characteristics. Several greens sit in natural amphitheatre-like settings and water influences multiple holes.

Development

The course was created as part of a larger residential community. Its original model was strongly tied to property ownership, but subsequent ownership and operating changes shifted Tallwoods toward broader public and social-golf access.

Today

Tallwoods operates as an 18-hole public-access course with five published tee distances, accommodation and clubhouse food and beverage facilities.
