The renovation master plan created by Hills & Forrest International Golf Course Architects in 2003, and implemented in 2004-05 was very extensive. The overall course length was increased nearly 360 yards, from 6,390 to 6,749. Dozens of tees and putting surfaces were repositioned to accommodate this length thus creating new playing strategies. Every bunker on the course was rebuilt in a vintage, flat-bottomed, grass-faced style. A number of new bunkers were added to enhance the strategic tableau. Scores of trees were removed or trimmed back, creating wider playing corridors and allowing the sunlight/air movement necessary to nurture the layout's new bentgrass fairways and greens.

All 18 holes were affected by this work, but the first hole is a microcosm of the project. The par 4 hole was lengthened from 364 yards to 408. Many trees along the tight, bowling alley of a fairway were cleared thus creating a generous corridor accented by strategic fairway bunkering. A dramatic new green site was repositioned by moving it up and back onto a natural shelf, guarded on the front left by a gaping bunker.
