Heritage Golf acquires two

SAN DIEGO, Calif. - Golf course owner-operator Heritage Golf Group added two courses, Washington National Golf Club in Auburn, Wash., and Trophy Lake Golf and Casting in Port Orchard, Wash., to its portfolio last month.

Heritage acquired both courses from Scottsdale, Ariz.-based OB Sports LLC. The additions, which are Heritage’s first foray into the Pacific Northwest, bring the company’s portfolio of courses to 10. The remaining eight courses are located in California, Georgia and Florida.

Bob Husband, president and CEO of Heritage, said the two courses were a perfect fit for his company’s operational philosophy.

“Both Washington National and Trophy Lake are premium golf properties, and we are extremely fortunate to be able to add them to our portfolio,” Husband said. “Our mission all along has been to associate the Heritage name with the finest golf properties in the country. We continue to fulfill our mission with the addition of Washington National and Trophy Lake to our family of clubs.”

Washington National is a John Fought-designed 18-hole daily-fee course with a University of Washington theme. Trophy Lake, designed by Fought and design partner Tom Lehman, is located near Olympic Range and Mount Ranier and offers both golf and fishing at its location. Both courses opened in 1999.
