Gibson Bay Golf Course

Richmond, KY

Golf Week Magazine Rated Gibson Bay the 16th best municipal golf course in America

Designed by Michael Hurdzan, Gibson Bay Golf Course can accommodate players of all skill levels. With up to five tee boxes on each hole, Gibson Bay can be long enough to challenge even the best golfers, while it can also be short enough to be fun for the novice golfers. All tees, greens, and fairways feature bent grass to provide the best possible playing conditions. Many of the greens are set into hillsides protected by bunkers and strategically placed mounding. bullet Gibson Bay is known as one of the best golf courses in the region and has received the following accolades:

• Golf Digest awarded Gibson Bay 4 1/2 stars, which is a rating only two other courses in the state have achieved
• Golf Week Magazine rated Gibson Bay the 16th best municipal golf course in America
• Golf Digest ranked Gibson Bay as one of the top-25 Super Values in North America
• Golf Digest named Gibson Bay an honorable mention for best public golf course in the United States

Gibson Bay is a long, open golf course which allows gusts of wind to be a factor in shot-making. A player will not find much trouble off the tee, but wayward tee shots will lead to side-hill lies and an awkward approach shot. Many of the greens are set into hill sides and protected by strategically placed bunkers and mounding.
