Wakefield Development Company’s 12 Oaks, the Triangle’s newest master-planned community featuring a Nicklaus Design 18-hole championship golf course, is proud to announce its signature golf course has been named to Golfweek Magazine’s highly regarded “Best New Courses” list. The “Best New Courses” list features the top 50 new layouts in the United States as selected by the magazine’s rankers. The 7,219-yard Nicklaus Design golf course covers a varied terrain, from narrow valleys and ridges to shallow valleys accented with streams and wooded areas. Although each hole captures the stunning natural beauty of Holly Springs, the course’s signature hole is the longest hole on the front nine, Hole 4. At 438 yards, this par 4 plays some 30-feet uphill and features hazards along its left side. The Green is small with a severe slope, inviting golfers at any skill level to a good challenge.
