Southern Dunes is consistently ranked among the nation's best. Since 1993, this award-winning facility has captured the hearts of golfers throughout the world. Designed by Steve Smyers, Southern Dunes is a distinctive course that features a dramatic hillside layout, rolling terrain, steep elevation changes and large, fast, undulating greens -- presenting golfers with a challenge unique to Central Florida. The design encourages golfers to use their imagination as the use of the slopes and contours can help maneuver the ball around the massive, high-lipped bunkers. This spectacular design and the newly renovated Dwarf Greens is further enhanced by the high grasses and ornamentals that form the borders for holes that tumble with the terrain. The challenging conditions and impeccable playing surfaces make Southern Dunes a must play when visiting Central Florida. Southern Dunes also features clubhouse amenities, including a full selection of breakfast and lunch menu items, banquet facilities, golf shop and a PGA professional staff for golf instruction.

Course Details

Five sets of tees welcome golfers of all skill levels to enjoy risk/reward opportunities through extensive mounding and strategically placed bunkers. The par-3 holes play down hill giving golfers beautiful views of greens and present holes that truly have distinction. There are five par-4 holes that stretch more than 420 yards from the back tees and three that play less than 380 yards long. The shorter ones make golfers play smart off the tee and with the approach, while the longer ones call for some muscle to get the ball on the putting greens in regulation. The par-5's allow for some mistakes from the tee box, however, these holes offer tough risk reward opportunities for the player trying to get the ball on the putting surface in just two shots.
