About Sea Trail Golf Resort - The Rees Jones Golf Course

Sea Trail Golf Resort's Rees Jones Course in Sunset Beach, North Carolina is the most architecturally distinctive of the three Sea Trail layouts, designed by the renowned Rees Jones — known as the 'Open Doctor' for his frequent work preparing courses for US Opens. The 18-hole layout features Jones' signature premium bunkering, strategic use of coastal wetlands, and greens that are more undulating and demanding than the resort's other layouts. The Rees Jones Course rewards players who think strategically about approach angles and club selection, making it the preferred choice for experienced golfers visiting the Sea Trail complex. Coastal breezes off the nearby Atlantic add a variable element that reinforces Jones' design intent of rewarding course management over raw power.

History

Rees Jones, celebrated for his US Open course preparations at Bethpage Black, Torrey Pines, and The Country Club, designed the Sea Trail Rees Jones Course as part of the resort's three-phase development in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The course opened as the flagship layout of the Sea Trail complex and has maintained its status as the most sophisticated of the three courses. Jones' coastal Carolina work here preceded his broader reputation as the US Open Doctor.
