Designed by Arthur Hills and Mike Dasher, the 6800-yard layout honored by Golf Digest as one of the "Best Places to Play" is set among acres of natural wildlife with water or wetlands coming into play on 14 holes.

Gary Player Design renovated this course in 2005 to maintain Mr. Player's original concept of favoring strategy, club selection, and shot placement, and took great steps to incorporate new features that will reward rather than penalize players for the average shot. The course is routed through dense woodlands, lakes, and protected wetlands. Always kept in impeccable shape, this picturesque layout is considered one of the top and toughest courses in the area! Located over an hour northeast of Orl...
Every club in your bag is needed at The Grand Club's Pine Course, the longest of the four original courses at Palm Coast. Arnold Palmer and Ed Seay created a shotmaking challenge with tree-lined rolling fairways and well-trapped greens. In addition, there's water on 10 holes to add to the difficulty. Take your group back to the tips and the challenge will be all they can handle. The club, now managed by the Hampton Golf Group, underwent major renovations in 2006 and is always kept in premium con...
Bill Amick designed this semi-private course, which is nestled among towering pines, century-old oaks, and natural vegetation. Water comes into play on only two holes, but the layout is still one of the most picturesque and challenging in the area. A beautiful, spacious clubhouse completes this outstanding golf facility. Halifax Plantation is located 15 minutes north of Daytona in Ormond Beach....
The Conservatory Golf Course at Ginn Hammock Beach, a Tom Watson Signature design, offers 140 acres of dramatic elevations and undulating greens not commonly found in Florida. In fact, the Conservatory has the highest slope rating in Florida! With six tee boxes per hole, the Conservatory promises an exciting challenge for all levels of play, and when played from the back tees there is no longer course in the state. Highlighted by man-made waterfalls, babbling brooks and veneered field stone work...
Open since December 2000, the Ginn Hammock Beach Resort's Ocean Course by Jack Nicklaus is set amidst dunes and natural landscape and features more ocean play than any other course on the state's east coast. Six holes overlook the ocean, including the incredible 468-yard, par-4 finishing hole. Birdie here (and sometimes par) will always win you a skin! Lakes, dunes, forested terrain, and five different tee options add to the challenge. No matter what part of Florida you plan on visiting, make s...
This Lloyd Clifton design once played host to the LPGA Sprint Championship. The 7100-yard layout stretches through natural woodlands and is bordered by water on 10 holes. Indigo Lakes is centrally located off I-95 near Daytona International Speedway. For practice, the club has everything you need, including a 400-yard driving range, putting green, chipping green and practice bunker. Whether staying in Daytona Beach, Palm Coast (25-minute drive), or north Orlando (45-minute drive), Indigo Lakes i...
Located in Daytona Beach, LPGA International is an easy hour drive northeast of Orlando, located just off all major roads. The original course -- the Champions -- was chosen by Golf Magazine as one of the nation's "Top 10 Courses to Play." Home of the LPGA and former host of the LPGA Tour's Titleholder's Championship, this Rees Jones design is challenging, picturesque and certainly memorable. Featured are elevated tees and greens, dramatically rolling fairways that are bordered by large m...
Designed by Arthur Hills and opened in 1998, the Legends is the newer of the two courses at LPGA International and a great compliment to its sister course, The Champions. The spectacular layout offers beautiful magnolia and heavily pinetree-lined fairways. Distinctly different from the Champions, the Legends compliments the links-style of its sister course and requires different strategies on each hole. Water borders on just eight holes, where nature abounds and no homes can be found! A...
Open since December 2001, Victoria Hills preserves the natural flow of the environment in a unique Florida golf setting. The Ron Garl design features many characteristics reminiscent of the Pine Barrens course at World Woods including sandy waste bunkers; generous fairways framed by mature oak and pine hammocks; the sandy shores of pristine lakes (water on just 4 holes); and elevated tough-to-hit greens. Also featured is their new Carolina-style Victorian clubhouse and tavern for those who wish...
There's never been a course like this. For the first time in history, Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus have teamed together and built The King & The Bear at World Golf Village. The two golf legends have collaborated on a truly remarkable course of unparalleled beauty, challenge, and design. The course features loblolly pines and open meadows on the front nine while the natural beauty of 200-year-old live oaks with vast, shady canopies perfectly complement the back. Simply awesome!

The World Golf Village is considered the most ambitious golf project in the history of the game. The first course, The Slammer and The Squire, was designed by architect Bobby Weed and named for golf legends Sam Snead and Gene Sarazen. Golfers of all levels are provided a challenge, yet five sets of tees allow the player to choose a length to meet his or her ability. If the ambiance of the World Golf Village is not enough, the service-oriented approach of the course will impress all visitors....
