Cascata Golf Club;- Has generous fairways with some of Bangkok's best greens
This Golf Course relative newcomer to Bangkok's, endless supply of top-quality golf courses. Opened in 2006, the original A and B Courses at the Club, have many open fairways, creating a links-style experience. The Course is kept in excellent condition and is an exciting challenge with generous fairways and some of the best greens in the area.
The A and B Courses are scattered with trees, but the feel will always be open and expansive fairways, with limited protection from the wind, which can sometimes be a factor. The longer A-course has ever-present water hazards, opening with a short, tight dog-leg par-4, followed by a testing, water-protected par-3.
As golfers progress around the course on the flat and open terrain, with significant bunkering and the abundance of water become less of a problem, particularly as you become accustomed to the good-width fairways and the large and lightning-fast greens. With the A-course behind you, there are chances to relax a bit more on the slightly easier-going B-course. The C and D Courses opened in 2010 and 2014 respectively and are the more challenging of the four courses at the Club. The combined combination stretches to over 7,400 yards from the tees and is a test for even the better Golfers. Both C and D courses feature severely undulated fairways with most greens elevated, which can make a simple two-putts daunting task.
The Clubhouse is Spanish in style. Don’t let the appearance fool you, as the restaurant is 100% Thai as is the superb food prepared by the local chef.
Overall impression of the Club, it is fun to play, and is well suited for Bangkok bound golfers who are looking for an easy to play golf course in natural park-like surroundings. Compulsory golf buggies add to the overall cost. All golfers will enjoy their round at Cascata Golf Club.
