Starting March 20, the course will officially open to all club members as well as guests of Camp Creek® Inn through its “Member for a Stay” experience.
“The opening of new amenities has been a welcomed and regular occurrence at Watersound Club properties over the past several years,” said Patrick Murphy, Senior Vice President of Hospitality with St. Joe. “The opening of The Third, however, represents a monumental milestone in the ongoing Watersound Club evolution and an intentional response to growing demand from our membership. More members plus more demand for golf equals the need for more capacity.”
Now with three courses totaling 54 holes of championship golf available to club members, Watersound Club amenities continue to expand with the increasing membership base. The Third is the latest of recent expansion projects driven by a demand for more amenity options and by significant membership growth. Other club member benefits have been added in recent years, including the Watersound Camp Creek amenities, featuring a state-of-the-art wellness center, tennis and pickleball courts, a sprawling pool complex and three dining venues, as well as Watersound Club Sporting Preserve, a 15-station sporting clays course.
Love Golf Design, led by World Golf Hall of Fame member Davis Love III and his brother, Mark Love, designed The Third to provide a contrast to the Watersound Club Shark’s Tooth and Camp Creek golf courses with Scot Sherman as the lead architect on the project.
Describing the course, Love Golf Design Founder and President Mark Love, noted, “Players should be able to find a set of tees that matches their game. The greens are large and have a good deal of movement in them. We can set up the course to challenge highly skilled players in a major event, but on a daily basis, it provides a nice mix of easy, medium and difficult pins to keep things interesting, yet not too difficult for the average golfer.”
An example of The St. Joe Company’s diversified approach to development, The Third is also surrounded by tens of thousands of acres which are currently being master planned for future residential communities.
