Sir James Country Club
Sir James Country Club course overview
Sir James Country Club is an 18-hole, par-72 course in Muak Lek District, Saraburi, within the wider Khao Yai golf region. Designed by Scottish architect John William Rogers, the current published back-tee layout measures 7,026 yards. The parkland course follows naturally undulating ground between forested hills, with streams, lakes, waterfalls, doglegs and uneven lies shaping the round. Some holes offer generous driving space, but accurate position remains important because water and elevation can complicate the next approach.

Best for: Mid-handicap golfers who enjoy natural elevation, scenic parkland golf and strategic approaches around water.
Also suitable for: Higher-handicap golfers, mixed-ability groups and resort guests who select an appropriate tee and use conservative targets.

Location & Getting There
What it is like to play Sir James Country Club
Sir James provides a varied parkland round where the ground movement affects almost every part of the game. Drives can finish on uphill, downhill or sidehill lies, while streams and lakes influence both the safest landing area and the preferred route into several greens. The fairways are reasonably playable in places, but thicker vegetation and mature trees wait beyond the main corridors. From an appropriate tee, the course remains enjoyable for mixed abilities while still rewarding golfers who manage elevation and water carefully.
The forested foothill setting in Muak Lek
Sir James Country Club lies in the foothills around Muak Lek, where forest-covered hills form the background to much of the routing. Flowering plants, mature trees, streams, lakes and landscaped rock features add variety when the holes move away from the steepest natural surroundings. The course previously operated as Forest Hills Country Club before adopting the Sir James name. Its quieter resort setting creates a clear countryside identity without turning this course page into a general guide to the wider Khao Yai region.

Sir James Country Club course design and strategy
John William Rogers designed Sir James around the existing slopes, watercourses and changes in elevation rather than forcing every hole onto level ground. Doglegs and water hazards frequently make the longest route from the tee less useful than a controlled shot to the correct side of the fairway. Uphill and downhill approaches change effective distance, while uneven lies make clean contact more important than maximum power. The strongest strategy is to favour balanced ground, identify the safe side of each water hazard and leave approach shots below the hole whenever possible.
How to play Sir James Country Club
Prioritise a balanced stance
Use the available fairway width to find stable ground, even when doing so leaves a slightly longer approach.
Adjust for elevation
Recalculate effective yardage on uphill and downhill shots instead of selecting a club from the measured distance alone.
Respect the water line
Confirm the safe carry and preferred miss with your caddie before attacking greens protected by streams, lakes or steep run-offs.
Course-defining holes at Sir James Country Club
Hole 3: The third is a long par five played from an elevated position toward a sloping fairway. The ground can move the ball toward the water, while a successful drive beyond the rise creates the possibility of attempting the green in two.
Hole 15: The signature fifteenth is a downhill par three played toward a green strongly influenced by surrounding water. The elevation makes the hole appear shorter, but wind and the limited safe landing area demand committed club selection.
Hole 18: The closing par four begins from an elevated tee and finishes with an approach played across water toward a raised green in front of the clubhouse and resort. It provides a demanding final test of distance control and approach accuracy.
