If you are looking for a break from the winter doldrums, the February 2010 issue is for you. Our opening feature takes you to the hottest golf destination in the Americas, the Dominican Republic. Having recently spent nearly two weeks on island, see why we can safely proclaim that Casa de Campo is still the most complete and satisfying golf resort in the entire Caribbean. However, as you will see, your experience can be greatly influenced by your choice of lodging. We also share the secret to playing La Romana Country Club (Casa de Campo's little known private “members” course), plus the lowdown on the local entertainment scene.

Our second story focuses on one of the more surprising values we have uncovered recently – The Four Seasons Resort and Club Dallas at Las Colinas. Yes, value and Four Seasons are not normally uttered in the same sentence, but through the end of 2010, rooms at this recently renovated full-service resort (to the tune of $60 million) are available from $153 a night with a 3-night stay. The TPC course is the long-time home of the Byron Nelson Championship and Golf Odyssey subscribers can also play the private, Cottonwood Valley Course, normally restricted to Las Colinas members. Nearby we profile the Cowboys Golf Club, yes owned by those Cowboys!
