 | Twenty-seven-hole Dye Fore joined Teeth of the Dog in 2002. Its three nines – Chavon, Marina and Lagos– are distinct. Chavon features 5 cliff side holes dropping 300 feet, Marina plays down the Chavon rivers and offers panoramic views of the Caribbean Sea and the Marina at Casa de Campo. |
| The Chavón River cuts a deep path through the landscape as it tumbles down from the Dominican mountains to the coast and the Dye Fore course sits high above the flowing waters with many of the holes on the back nine routed along the top edge on one side of the valley, offering spectacular views down to the Marina and the Caribbean Sea beyond. |  |
 | The quartet of par threes here are all incredible short holes – though not too short from the back markers as each of them measure more than 200 yards from tee to green – with the 220-yard 15th probably the pick of the bunch as it demands a heroic carry over native vegetation to a sand-protected green. |
Another nine holes – Dye Fore Lakes – were added to the course in 2011 and these fairways now connect with Dye Fore Chavon, the original north nine of Dye Fore, and the Marina Nine, the original south nine.
