Lazy Swan Site Planning




One of the things that has been great about the Lazy Swan was developing the "village concept" for the facilities. It allowed me to create an intimate relationship between building architecture and the golf course. Separate buildings include the clubhouse / restaurant, pro shop, banquet hall, pilates studio, locker rooms, cart barn and snack shop. There are still a few more structures to go in, such as office space and retail shops. The owner is now looking into the development of a hotel on site. The golf business has been booming and the facilities, freshly opened, are booking events at a rapid pace. This is a different model from golf and housing, but one that is quite successful here, particularly considering the economy we are in right now. Golf is up at the course 150% over last season, and it appears the banquet hall will be equally successful in the 2011 season.
