Inspired by California’s legendary Pebble Beach Golf Links and other great seaside courses of the world, Cobble Beach Golf Links is on its way to becoming a destination unto itself.

While some developers would be hard pressed to take a chance on building a master planned golf community three hours north of the GTA, founder Willis McLeese went the extra mile with a commitment to excellence every step of the way. We embraced that passion for the 574-acre property to produce a 1,000 residential unit project with a layout that twists, turns and plunges across a one-of-a-kind shoreline property. An interesting aspect of the project included working with archaeologists to preserve navigational heritage sites along the water’s edge.

We were quite fortunate that the owners agreed with our vision to route the golf course along the scenic water’s edge, which maximized the value of the residential land by having a dramatic golf course along the bluffs with views of the water from every hole. Small pot bunkers, closely mown chipping areas and hollows surrounding the greens provide the fast-running, bump-and-run characteristics typical of the great links courses that define the timeless Cobble Beach experience.
