Dye Fore would be my first choice of the 3 at Casa de Campo . The links are ok, just not a great layout for the site.
30 minutes away to the west you could also play Metro C.C., from what I hear this is a super track....

play the new course at La Estancia. It's a new PB Dye course. Other than La Estancia and Dye Fore, I wouldn't bother with the others.

Thanks...

How far is the new Jack Nicholas course? The house we are staying at has a driver that will take us around so if somewhat close we might try it out.

The Jack Nicholas course is Punta Espada in Cap Cana.

Recently rated #2 in the Caribbean by Forbes, absolutely stunning and around US$300 per round.

You'd need to take a helicopter. Now if you tell the Cap Cana people you want to play golf and see the place, they were picking up people in Casa and flying them over to Cap Cana. They did it for owners in Casa but I don't see why they wouldn't do it for others.
