Horizon Hills Golf & Country Club, nestled in the heart of Nusajaya, Johor, offers a captivating golfing experience on its 6,271-meter par-72 championship course. Designed by the acclaimed Ross Watson, this course seamlessly integrates the natural landscape with strategic design, providing a challenging yet rewarding round for golfers of all skill levels. The course gained recognition by hosting the Asian Tour's Iskandar Johor Open shortly after its opening in 2008.
The course is renowned for its 'risk-reward' layout, featuring significant elevation changes and striking bunkers with full sand faces. Water features, including waterfalls, lakes, and ponds, add both beauty and challenge to the game. Notably, the 500-meter second hole is a strategic par-5 that tests players with a creek bisecting the fairway, demanding careful shot planning.
The final holes at Horizon Hills provide a memorable finish. The 17th, a 135-meter par-3, challenges with its large, undulating green and winds that can affect play. The 18th hole, a par-5, offers multiple strategic options, with water hazards and bunkers influencing club selection and shot execution.
Beyond the course, Horizon Hills boasts excellent facilities, including an Olympic-sized swimming pool, gym, tennis courts, and dining options, ensuring a complete and enjoyable visit for all golfers.
