This is my second visit to Guilin (the 1st was in 06, playing Twinpeak & Merryland), it was such an enjoyable trip that I decided to bring my family along this time due to Merryland's facilities & it's theme park (for my kid...and me to play) in addition of doing some sightseeing & of course, check out the newly built Course C (completed in 08). For those with small kids & elderly, great news, the resort can provide you with a service staff to look after your young children and elderly during your round or take them to the theme park so that you can play with an ease of mind.

As mentioned, the hotel has a lot of facilities and is of good standard. Lobby 、room, foot massage & sauna、nightclub and even a department store, all under one roof....great!

The golf club house is a short drive away and is relatively small but still nicely decorated with basic stuff as such a decent lobby, proshop, driving range, restaurant & locker. During my stay, both the club & hotel's service were very good.

Very similar to Course A & B, the fairways of C are fairly wide and forgiving fairways but not as rolling making the stance a touch easier and but C has a bit more elevations changes & a couple of big dogleg holes which are more fun to play. The greens are bit more tricky with more slopes and tiers, bunkers are equipped with really soft sand, any high shots ended up in the bunkers will most likely be buried so avoid them at all cost. The distance from the white tee (it has 2...from 2,996 or 3,267 yards, if you want to have more challenge, the back tee (blue) is 3,527 yards).

I personally like the # 19 & # 27, both are dogleg holes, very pretty & great fun to play.

Check out the 2 story Midway house, amazing!

My last round was in Summer but this time is Xmas and cold, all the burmuda on the fairways all went dormant but the teebox & greens are Tif Eagle and is able to make its beautiful deep emerald green, a great contrast and very pleasing to the eyes.

Played 3 rounds with 3 different caddies, all were pretty good.

I like the club last time and this time did not disappoint, will recommend to any golfers to play here with or without family, Guilin is a great place to do sightseeing, and Merryland is a very nice & enjoyable golf course to play . Ace ! 12/09
