Tot Hill Farm Golf Club
After an extensive 9-month renovation in 2023, Tot Hill Farm Golf Club is evolving into a bucket list golf destination experience as architect Mike Strantz intended. Phase 1 priorities were to resurface all 18 greens with Prizm Zoysia, convert the 150+ year old farmhouse to the clubhouse, clean up items that affected grass growth on several tee boxes and greens, level and sod teeing areas, repair cart path damage, and repair several bridges. The end result has put Tot Hill Farm back on the map as a must play golf experience when visiting the area. Golfers are raving about the updates.
From the moment Strantz set foot on this property he knew this place was extra special. With his creativity at a fever pitch, a canvas that featured mountainous terrain with tons of movement, and his favorite horse by his side, Strantz left the town of Asheboro, NC a golf course that is anything but.
Mike’s intent on providing visually stunning and challenging designs came from his hero of golf course architecture, Dr. Alistair MacKenzie. From MacKenzie’s book The Spirit of St. Andrews, he noted, ‘It frequently happens the best holes give rise to the most bitter controversy. It is largely a question of the spirit in which the problem is approached, depending on the player. Whether he looks at it from the ‘card and pencil’ point of view and condemns anything that disturbs his steady series of 3’s or 4’s, or whether he approaches it in the ‘spirit of adventure.’ Tot Hill Farm is 100% adventure, yet as Strantz stated, is extremely playable for all skill levels.
Enjoy the day surrounded by breathtaking beauty. Soak up the precious time with your friends, and don’t look at the day from the ‘card and pencil’ point of view. Go. Make memories instead. The Unforgettable Starts Here.
