The land was a large family farm owned by the Green Family. The historic property in Falls of the Rough, Kentucky was converted into Layafette in the spring of 1997. Jody used the terrain and wooded areas well. Many of the holes have gradual slopes up and down hills and wooded areas come into play on almost every hole. I am sure the ponds, streams and marshy areas around the course are littered with golf balls.
Water comes into play in various forms on over half the holes.
Most of the holes are also protected by a bunker or two. Maxed out, the course can play to 6900 yards, but with four sets of tee boxes the course can be fair for everyone. One signature that can be seen from Kinney's design is that most holes have some sort of dogleg or curve to them. The clubhouse and facilities match the atmosphere well and are pine and cedar log structures. The clubhouse has a fully stocked proshop and snack bar along with TV and deck with a nice view overlooking the 11th green.
