Forest City Golf Resort, Classic Course Description:
(challenging course with flowerbeds and elevated greens throughout)

Forest City Golf Resort, Classic Course opened in 2019 located 25 minutes from the Johor city center. The course is also reachable in less than 1 hour from Singapore and set among a large complex of four reclaimed islands in the straits between Singapore and Malaysia.

The Classic Course is the second course of the Forest City Golf Resort (FCGR). The FCGR itself is part and parcel of a billion-dollar real estate project set on a 30-square-kilometer plot of land that overlooks the straits between Southern Malaysia and Singapore.

The Classic 18-hole golf course features a three-dimensional garden landscape integrated with a golf terrain design concept. While flowers are not unusual at many tropical courses, the abundance here creates an iconic Johor golf course.

The original Legacy Course has wide fairways, flanked by waste sand areas, which makes for wayward shots easy to get back into play. The Classic Course, on the other hand, has narrow fairways and water hazards with many flower beds that make for more difficult ball spotting. Greens are elevated and severely unulated. Catchment areas abound and being on the correct side of the pin leads to a good score. Overall, while not as impressive of design, the challenge is certainly there. 

Golf carts are allowed on fairways to help disabled golfers, speed up play, and enhance the course playability. Female caddies are standard, which is a big plus in Malaysia.

The massive 5-star Forest City Golf Hotel located in the middle of the property serves as the clubhouse. A grass turf driving range is available to golfers before and after their rounds.  The 21-bay full-length driving range has an open thatched roof structure and fronted by a large short-game and chipping- and putting practice area.  Facilities and service and the on-site golf resort match the 5-star standard.

    • Four friends, 6 rounds of golf in Kuala Lumpur and Johor Bahru. Arrangements by GolfAsian were great and all courses were different but good quality. All transfer drivers were helpful and punctual but our favourite was "Johnson" in KL. Minor criticisms - water was not supplied and our first 9 at Kota Permai was marred by major fairway renovation. All in all we had a fun time and we will be back.

    • This is our second golf holiday organised by Golfasian. First was a trip to Thailand and our latest Vietnam. We can not fault the services provided by Golfasian, from the first email enquiry to the itinerary provide. Watches could be set for the pick ups and all drivers were very friendly, standards of hotels were excellent. All courses we played in both Thailand and Vietnam were excellent and some quite challenging. We would highly recommend using Golfasian and we will definitely be using them again. Thank you for making such a stress free holiday from start to finish

    • Our Danang golf tour has just finished. We played the 4 great courses there, and played them twice. Our group was 10 pax, from being met at the airport and being delivered to our hotel, and then for our 8 days of golf, everything was perfect. I would like to specially thank Miss Huong who did so much to help us before and during our tour, and also our driver/tour guide Lucky who is not only a lovely man, but was funny, full of knowledge which he was happy to share with us, and he is a great and safe driver. Well done to the Golf Asian team. We would not hesitate to recommend them for a golf tour in Asia. Don’t try to do it yourself, use Golf Asian..5 stars..😀
