CONCIERGE SECRETS

AMW Faves List

Favorite Par 3 – #3 – short but picturesque with water guarding the green.  Club selection is key!
Favorite Par 4 – #13 – views of the mountains and dogleg to the left, this is a stunning hole.
Favorite Par 5 – #10 – from a narrow chute that takes you through the trees to a slight bend to the right.
Favorite Hole Design – #9 – over a small creek from the tee up to the clubhouse – a great par 4 to end the nine.
Easiest Hole – #15 – straight as an arrow for most of the hole with just one bunker to miss.
Hardest Hole – #7 – a beast of a par 5; narrow and fairly long and not much personality but tough as nails.
Favorite Extra Sighting – moose and other wildlife – if you are lucky a lynx and bear!
Favorite Après Golf – hiking and kayaking, fly-fishing and bird-watching.
Where to Stay – Alyeska Resort (Anchorage), Hotel Captain Hook (large hotel in Anchorage), Wild Birch Hotel (Anchorgae), RV camping on site if you desire!
Where to Eat – The Albatross (clubhouse), Settlers Bay Lodge, Seven Glaciers (Alyeska Resort – Anchorage), Crows Nest (Hotel Captain Hook – Anchorage), Pearl (Anchorage).
