Hole 1
Par 4
From the start, Crossings grabs your attention, named for the trees that line the first tee. The opener is a stout, dog-leg left par 4. The second shot plays uphill to a green defended by a bunker left, another bunker long, and a steep hillside right. The first gives you the chance to hit a great shot early and a glimpse of what lies ahead.
Hole 2
Par 4
The second is a shorter par 4 that forces golfers to make a decision off the tee: swing away or play strategically. The fairway narrows in the landing area, and no matter the yardage, approach shots must be precise to find the surface here. A pot bunker sits short left of the green, while a vast shared bunker with #15 guards the right side.
Hole 3
Par 4
The par 4 third offers more choices off the tee. A drive short of the fairway bunker sets up the ideal angle, while the right side shortens the hole for the second shot. Left of this green provides a chance to get up and down.
Hole 4
Par 5
Sweeping left through marsh, velvet grass, and bunkers, the par 5 fourth hole finishes over a creek to an elevated green. Finding the surface here requires precision from any distance.
Hole 5
Par 5
The fifth, another par 5, takes golfers from open rolling dunes to a green situated in a lush valley, with plenty of room off the tee and downslope in the landing zone. This longer par 5 can be a two-shot hole. When calculating a lay-up, make sure to stay short of the hazard to set up an approach. The fifth also features an alternate green for those playing the north nine routing.
Hole 6
Par 3
Making the transition to coastal forest, Hole 6 at Crossings takes you into the trees with a long par 3 that plays downhill to an ample green flanked by deep bunkers. With a long iron or wood, finding the surface at 6 is always a satisfying feeling.
Hole 7
Par 4
Carved through the trees, the seventh is a stunner. A mid-length par 4, this golf hole is visually exciting from the start, framed by forest with significant elevation change and movement in the fairway. Two perfectly placed bunkers narrow the landing area. The approach shot plays uphill to a green with trouble right and room short and left.
Hole 8
Par 4
The eighth is another gem of a par 4, turning hard left around the ghost of an old madrone. The tee shot directs you right, but successfully cutting the corner allows you to shorten the hole dramatically. From the fairway, the golfer is faced with a narrow green set against a backdrop of trees. Bunkers left and short right wait to catch errant approach shots. The green feeds from back to front and right to left.
Hole 9
Par 3
Part of Crossings’ unique layout, the ninth hole fits nicely into the routing after a few long holes. This shorter par 3 offers a chance to set up a birdie putt. Avoid the front right bunker, and the green on 9 is generous, with a spine back center dividing the large surface into halves.
Hole 10
Par 4
The second nine at Crossings begins with a mid-length par 4. An uphill tee shot with a bunker in the middle must be avoided. Right shortens the hole, while the left side of the fairway offers a view of the pin and the best angle to approach the green. With bunkers all around, the surface at 10 is well defended.
Hole 11
Par 3
The 11th is a charming par 3 tucked between the trees. The large putting surface features a pronounced bank on the right side, kicking balls left toward the center of the green.
Hole 12
Par 5
The par 5 twelfth also carves its way through the trees, down into a valley and up again to a green backed by dense coastal forest. Navigate the blind second shot successfully, and this dogleg right can be a scoring opportunity.
Hole 13
Par 5
Another chance at a par 5, the 13th might be the most dramatic and demanding tee shot on the course. Framed by trees, the fairway dives down a steep slope in the landing area, then rises again on its way to the green. A deep bunker left and trees right guard the approach.
Hole 14
Par 3
The elevation change on the par 3 fourteenth is impressive and can make club selection from the tee tricky. Significantly downhill, with a forced carry over native marshland, this par 3 requires a solidly struck shot to find the surface. With a bunker and pond right, and marshland short and left, the fourteenth is a satisfying green to hit and provides the chance to gain momentum as you leave the trees.
Hole 15
Par 4
The 15th is a return to the open rolling farmland feel on the north side of the property. Bunkers and velvet grass define the look of this short par 4. Avoiding the sand off the tee sets up an approach that plays to a two-tiered green, well defended by bunkers on either side.
Hole 16
Par 4
The shortest par 4 on the course, 16 tempts you to play aggressively, but a driver may not be required to set up a short iron into the green. Precision is key as the slender green is set at an angle to the fairway.
Hole 17
The 17th is another stunner. Not long, but playing uphill, over a pond, to a wide green, the 17th has a little bit of everything. An exhilarating shot to hit to any pin location.
Hole 18
Par 5
Crossings wraps up with a truly unique par 5. Bending right around a lone fairway bunker, this potential two-shot hole gets more dramatic on the second shot, where a deep ravine cutting through the fairway must be crossed. From either side, the approach plays downhill to a green with bunkers and marsh on the left. Using the contours right of the green can help funnel a ball toward the surface, making 18 a potential scoring hole to end the round.
