REVIEWS
While Porto Cima offers a complete
package of
private club luxury amenities, the golf course remains the prized
feature for members. Porto Cima holds rank as the only 18-hole Jack
Nicklaus-Signature course in Missouri, and the Nicklaus reputation does
not disappoint. Golf
Digest recognized Porto Cima as one of the finest
courses in the country and many players have referred to the course as
the four finest finishing holes in golf.
Nicklaus personally supervised design and construction on all 18 holes
of the par 72, 7,118-yard championship course. Seven holes are played
over or along water from the lake, making fantastic use of Porto
Cima’s lakeside location.
"On a scale of one to ten, this is as close to a ten - if there ever
was a ten..." — Jack Nicklaus
“Anything with a Jack Nicklaus signature on it usually
assures
quality and excellence. The Club at Porto Cima at the Lake of the
Ozarks is no exception.” — Todd Hejna, St. Louis
Post-Dispatch
“The Club at Porto Cima was chosen for its
excellent club
facility, staff and championship golf course. It will provide an
excellent test as the signature Nicklaus design requires great skill
throughout the layout with four very tough closing holes. The abundance
of water on the course and risk reward holes will test our best women
golfers in Missouri and should truly determine the best champion this
year in an exciting finish.” — Karen Johnson,
history and
publicity director for the Missouri Women’s Golf Association,
on
why Porto Cima was chosen to host the 2006 MWGA Amateur Championship
“The best thing is the golf course. It is a great course to
play
at.” — Members Susan and Fred Kjar of St. Louis
