Teeth of the Dog® Restoration: A Legendary Rebirth in the Making

At Casa de Campo, excellence has never been a one-time achievement—it is a tradition we uphold, restore, and elevate. Teeth of the Dog is not just the best Caribbean golf course; it is a living legacy carved by Pete Dye and refined by decades of passion, precision, and purpose. Today, we are proud to share the remarkable progress of the Teeth of the Dog Restoration project—an ambitious effort to preserve the soul of this iconic course while elevating the playing experience to world-class standards.

In recent months, our dedicated restoration teams have achieved extraordinary feats across every hole, every fairway, and every detail of the course. Here’s a look at what has been accomplished:

• 127 bunkers have been completely renovated, each now featuring advanced drainage systems and new liners. To restore their pristine condition and playability, we used an impressive 4,655 cubic meters of sand.
• 70 teeing areas have been revitalized, using 679 cubic meters of sand to ensure optimal texture, alignment, and elevation across the course.
• 18 holes of new cart paths have been installed, improving the player experience and preserving the landscape. This critical infrastructure upgrade required 2,360 cubic meters of concrete.
• 14 fairways were sand-capped using 4,487 cubic meters of sand, enhancing drainage and turf quality for peak year-round conditions.
• 5 reinforced retaining walls have been constructed to fortify the course’s coastal edges and structural integrity, further protecting Dye’s original vision against the elements.

These enhancements are not mere maintenance—they are a reaffirmation of our commitment to offering the most breathtaking, challenging, and unforgettable golf in the Caribbean.

With final enhancements underway, anticipation is mounting for the grand reopening of Teeth of the Dog—one of the best golf courses in the Dominican Republic. Every upgrade brings us closer to welcoming back this legendary layout, where dramatic coastal views and championship-caliber greens await.

Whether you’re a seasoned fan or preparing for your first unforgettable round, Teeth of the Dog is poised to reclaim its place as a bucket-list experience. And while the legend sharpens its bite, golfers can still enjoy world-class play at Dye Fore and The Links—two exceptional courses that continue to challenge and inspire.

Stay tuned. The legend is ready to bite again.
