MAJOR INVESTMENT AT THE GOLF AND KICK-OFF TO THE 2023 SEASON
Mansonville, April 24, 2023 – Destination Owl’s Head invests more than $500 000 in golf infrastructures to make the customer experience even mor exceptional.
“These investments will allow us to maintain our position as a leader in the golf industry and to offer our customers a unique and global experience,” said Katrine Scott, Director of Sales and Marketing.
Improvements and works
More than $500,000 will be invested this year at Owl’s Head Golf Course to ensure a great season. Development and repair work is underway on the course and at the Club Haus. As of mid-May, visitors will be able to take full advantage of these new improvements.
The terrace of the Club Haus is getting an upgrade: the addition of a pergola and a glass guard will allow you to enjoy a breathtaking view of the course as well as incredible sunsets on the mountains. The addition of a wood floor will enhance the overall look and feel of the terrace.
On the course, the trails on holes 1, 2, 9, 10, and 18 will be paved with recycled asphalt. The work on the trails will be spread out over 3 years. In addition, Destination Owl’s Head will proceed with the rehabilitation of the guards as well as some work on the bridge structure. This work is part of a desire to offer a more pleasant experience on the trails.
Late last season, extensive work was done to automate the irrigation system. These modifications will optimize the performance of the system to limit water use while maximizing course conditions.
The sanitary pavilion on the course will be upgraded during the season.
Finally, with the reception of 12 new carts last fall, a total of 65 carts will now be offered.
