The Lodge of Four Seasons introduces "The Cove Golf Course"
A new name for optimum game

LAKE OZARK (MO) - After nearly one year of extensive renovations, The Cove Golf Course re-opened to the public Friday, May 1, 2009.
 
The Cove, the Robert Trent Jones, Sr. Signature Course formerly known as Witch's Cove, located directly across from The Lodge of Four Seasons, closed in July 2008 for the renovations. In late 2008, Golf Magazine named Witch's Cove as one of Missouri's "top five" courses. This 18-hole, par 71 championship course challenges guests with its rolling greens, 65 bunkers and the signature No. 13 hole which is now hole No. 4.  
 
"In our efforts to constantly improve the golf experience of our guests who play golf, we have completed extensive work on the greens, tee boxes and fairways, and have re-routed some of the holes on Witch's Cove for optimum play," stated Mark Brown, president of The Lodge of Four Seasons, and eldest son of Peter Brown and Susan Koplar-Brown.
 
As with The Cove, the Brown family continues to invest money back into their properties and the community to attract visitors and groups to the Lake area. In Spring 2008, the family tore down the old clubhouse building and replaced it with a brand new clubhouse, complete with pro-shop, bar and grill, and a spacious patio overlooking the greens to accommodate guests and groups who stay and play The Cove.
 
"On behalf of my family, we appreciate the efforts of Todd Clark of CE Golf Design in his efforts towards rejuvenating and re-designing The Cove championship course, and are excited to publicly unveil the fantastic results," said Brown.  
 
The Cove Golf Course re-opened on Friday, May 1, with member play in the morning, and public access beginning at noon.
