OUR HISTORY
Olde Homeplace was constructed in 1992, and opened June 4, 1993 under the
name of Homestead Golf Club.
In 1998, due to a trademark infringement, we changed the course's name to
Olde Homeplace Golf Club.
In 2000, after the purchase of 20 additional acres, the course underwent some
significant changes. What was then holes #10 and #18 were converted into a driving
range and practice area, what is now holes #5 and #6 were built, and the remaining
16 holes were renumbered. The result is the layout we have today.
OUR BUILDERS
Olde Homeplace was built by Don Charles. During his forty year career, Don partnered
with top-name golf course architects like Ellis Maples and Arnold Palmer to build some
of the country's best courses. Don built nearly seventy golf courses during his career.
Our course was designed by Don's son Mark. Mark went to work for his dad's golf course
construction company in the mid 1980's, and then went on to design the last seven courses
that Don built.
OUR MANAGEMENT
Since Olde Homeplace opened in 1993 the course has been managed and maintained by
the Charles family. Mark Charles is the General Manager. Toby Tilley (Don Charles'
nephew) is the Course Superintendant.
OUR GOAL
At Olde Homeplace we strive to give our customers the Best Golf Course we can,
at the Best Price, while striving to Treat Everyone Nice.
