The Golf Course
Dean Gardens' 18-hole, par 72 golf course begins on the west side of the home, plays around the Oriental gardens, and down near the grass tennis court and croquet lawn on the property's east side. The golf course, tucked away in the landscape as it is, lets people interact with nature while enjoying a game of golf. Areas of sculptural and architectural interest were created around the course to add special visual interest. Aquatic gardens were built and natural springs were turned into lagoons. At the highest point of the property you'll find a lagoon rather than a lawn area. More than a million tons of rocks-from boulders to small stones-were purchased and strategically placed around the estate.
