The Glades is a par 72, 6420 metre championship course that spans 65 hectares of land.

The course layout was designed by champion golfer and Australian sporting icon and legend Greg Norman, and is typical of his trademark aggressive layouts.

The Glades boasts superb agronomy that is unique to the area. In particular the greens consist of a new type of "Creeping bent grass" that offers a true putting surface and is the preference of professionals and amateurs alike.

This grass will ensure a superior putting surface for the entire year.

A feature on the course is the trademark Greg Norman bunkering - in total there are 98 bunkers over 18 holes.

In his design, Greg not only had a vision to create a challenging golf course, but he also retained 9 hectares of wetland area to create a natural wildlife sanctuary within the course.
