Good Morning! Today we officially announce the winning selections in the 2011 GolfCourseHome Dream 18 list of great residential golf holes. Our fifth annual collection, this year’s Dream 18 features master-planned golf communities located in eight states from Pennsylvania and Florida to Utah and Arizona.
The selection pool consisted of the more than 4,500 golf holes from the 250-plus championship golf courses represented on the GolfCourseHome®Network.
If it were possible to assemble all the holes of the Dream 18 on one site, the shotmaking challenges and visual delights of that layout would create a greatest-hits experience for the avid player. We look forward to hearing from someone who has actually accomplished the feat–maybe you?
See below for this year’s list with links to each community featured, plus today’s deals, travel specials and more!
