Dutchman’s Pipe Club in Palm Beach, Florida, is to undertake a two-hole bunker renovation on its Nicklaus Design course as well as make landscape, irrigation and drainage upgrades.
Formerly known as The President Country Club and The Banyan Clay Resort & Golf, Dutchman’s Pipe opened to members in 2024 following a multimillion-dollar renovation.
The scope of work for the upcoming project includes rebuilding revetted bunkers on the ninth and fifteenth to enhance playability, aesthetics and design character.

Landscape work will comprise plantings in out-of-play areas. The club is also making upgrades to its irrigation system and installing approximately 5,000 linear feet of drainage infrastructure on the club’s practice facility.
“Continuous improvement is central to our vision at Dutchman’s Pipe,” said Ryan Jowers, superintendent at Dutchman’s Pipe Club. “These enhancements reflect our commitment to preserving the privacy, conditioning and exclusivity that define the club while continuing to elevate the golf experience for our members.”
