Course History

It was only a few decades ago that this lush land was home to the Supreme Sultan, a horse of history and literally a legend in his own time. It was over these hills and valleys of picturesque beauty that Supreme Sultan sired a record number of World Champion American Saddlebred horses. No place on earth can lay claim to this record.

Now, this same ground recalls the heritage of the Supreme Sultan just as an engraved stone marks each unique and challenging tee box, memorializing the name of one of these World Champions. From its very beginning, this land was destined for greatness, but few would have predicted the creation of a world-class golf course that would entice champions.

Sultan’s Run opened in 1992 but then embarked on an extensive remodeling project in 1996, taking the golf course to the pinnacle of public golf. Designer Tim Liddy, a disciple of world-renowned architect Pete Dye, took what the land already offered and enhanced it.

All 18 holes at Sultan’s Run Golf Club have been beautified in some shape or form, from entirely new bunkering and reconstructed greens to the complete rework of several holes. The end result is that Sultan’s Run has become a world-class golf facility that golfers talk about long after their round is done. Check out our list of major events.



Since 2009, our owners have invested in upgrading and enhancing the golf course, the clubhouse, the banquet center, our commercial kitchen, our lodging offering, and all other amenities. Come and see for yourself!!
