About This Golf Course

Stone Quarry pays tribute to the many iconic designs of Pete Dye, mentor to the Schmidt‑Curley team. The course showcases the wild‑ride features that define Dye’s architectural legacy: railroad‑tie sleepers, abrupt mounding, moguls, long sandy waste bunkers, and devilish, sometimes small greens that demand precision.

As the routing winds through ancient volcanic quarries, steep rock walls and timber supports frame fairways and greens with dramatic contrast. The landscape is rich with remnants of the past — coal cars, railroad tracks, and abandoned mining equipment — creating one of the most distinctive visual identities at Mission Hills Haikou.

Despite its rugged appearance, the course is “sporty” in nature, rewarding shot‑making over brute strength. Strategic angles, varied lies, and bold visual cues make Stone Quarry a refreshing alternative to today’s long, power‑focused championship layouts.
