What began as a par-3, was transformed by William Powell into an inviting par-4 opening hole. A lateral stream runs three-quarters the length of the hole. The green can be challenging dependent upon the position of the pin. Since the course is not long, it is intended to be more challenging, highlighted by undulating greens. A crimson maple was planted on the hole and on Hole 18, the handiwork of family friend Hugh Chronister. Though the maple has since passed on No. 18, the intent was to mark the beginning and end of a journey, while honoring the memory of Marcella Powell, wife of William, and matriarch of the Powell family.
