Pete Dye’s signature golf course, the #1 course in the Caribbean, and the #39 ranked course in the world—Teeth of the Dog has a reputation that’s well deserved. Meticulously hand carved from the rugged rock and coral of the Dominican coastline, the hard-fought and challenging creation of Teeth of the Dog is an apt description for what playing a round can be like. #39 Ranked Golf Course in the World

Wonderful views with 6 holes on the ocean. Helpful caddies, and challenging, but not unfair. While there, take time to also play the Links course.
2. Dye Fore
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 52 reviews
Let’s talk numbers: 27 holes; 7,740 yards long; 7 cliff-side holes dropping 300 feet to the Chavón River below; and breathtaking 360 views. By our calculations Pete Dye’s masterpiece, Dye Fore, has a winning formula. Characterized by spectacular views of the Dominican mountains, the Chavón River, the Marina, and Altos de Chavón, this challenging cliff-side course is a delight for players of all levels. Now some more numbers for you: 12 and 15—two of the greatest par three holes in the world; 5 the amount of holes on the Lagos course with lakes in play; and 1 the number of strokes it takes to get started on the round of a lifetime.

If you play golf for the beauty of the course and it’s surroundings, this is the one. If you play for score, go somewhere else. Extra ordinary beauty, extra ordinary difficulty. Few players, fantastic course condition, good caddies. Windy days here could be hell but caught a great day. Pete Dye punishes golfers so be prepared to have the course beat you into the dirt. Perfectly maintained, flawless greens and fairways. Expensive but worth it. Memorable.
3. The Links
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 22 reviews
Reminiscent of traditional links courses typically found in the British Isles, these 18 holes wind through the interior of Casa de Campo and offer spectacular views of the Caribbean Sea and the Resort grounds. And even though The Links course might not be right beside the ocean, there’s still plenty of opportunity to go to the beach—no less than five holes feature water hazards. Rolling hills and ocean views offer an unique and fun golf experience. Another Pete Dye creation, The Links was completely overhauled in 2012 to make it every bit as challenging as the other courses at Casa de Campo.

If you find yourself in the La Ramana area, with your own clubs, you must try this course. Due to the current financial position of the resort, their may be no phone to the clubhouse. That's okay, just load up, and take a cab over. No tee time needed. You'll begin play almost immediately. The fairways are being well taken care of, and the greens are big and Beautiful. The course comes from the Dye family design house, so challenging goes without saying. Cost wise, it's much, much more reasonable than the closest competition. Well worth the trip. Caddie still required, and we had the same guy all three days we played there. His name was Freddy, and I highly recommend His services. Tell him Sammy Sosa sent you. LOL. Bueno Bola!
