Looking for the formula for residential golf in Ohio at Stone Ridge Golf Club

A recent round of golf played made me consider what made for quality residential golf, and it seems like I haven’t been the only one thinking on it. Adam Lawrence of Golf Course Architecture just dropped a feature in last month’s issue, speaking with golf course architects on how to best bring golf courses and housing together.

Said recent round was on a course designed by none other than Arthur Hills, which exuded healthy habits in building a real estate development course.
