Enjoy the Best of Central Florida Golf
Golfers of all abilities should have no problem finding course options to suit their game. Many of the game’s top designers, including Donald Ross, Bill Coore, Ben Crenshaw, and Tom Doak have left an indelible mark on the region, by providing a wide variety of course design styles, including spectacular resort layouts, undulating links-style courses and tree-lined parkland tracks.
Golfer’s will not only appreciate the area’s distinctive course designs, but also marvel at Central Florida’s natural beauty throughout their round. When compared to other flatland areas in Florida, Polk County’s topography makes the area unique. Boasting some of the highest points on peninsular Florida, courses throughout the region utilize the natural elevation changes and land contours, to provide a experience more akin to courses located in the northern states.
Courses are defined by natural wetlands, marshes and many of the area’s lakes, while centuries old oaks, native palms and pine forests frame the fairways. Wildlife is plentiful and you may find that deer, bald eagles, foxes, osprey and sandhill cranes provide the perfect visual distractions during your round.
