Golf Courses in Central Florida
You can smell the fresh cut grass and hear the clinking of irons as your
friends unsheathe the most feared club in the bag. You take a deep breath
and imagine crushing the long ball down the center of the fairway. Grabbing your
driver, you follow the footprints in the dewy grass up to the tee box. Repeating
"no shanks, no shanks," you tee up your golf ball and launch a drive through the
sweet Florida air onto the plush fairway 250 yards out. Now that's golfing.
You only have seventeen drives left on one of the premiere golf courses
in central Florida. With a unique Floridian layout and a dash of European panache,
this golf course promises more than a few challenging golf shots. With its difficulty
and distinctiveness, Eagle Creek Golf Club has been the home to a variety of amateur
and professional events, including the Florida Open.
Commenting on this central Florida golf course is the Florida
Open director, Rick Whitfield, "Eagle Creek is an unusual layout compared
to the typical Florida Course. It has great bunkering, it has some
elevation change and there are several great risk-reward holes that
should add excitement to the Florida Open. Ron Garl, [Eagle Creek's designer]
did a terrific job with Eagle Creek, and we are excited to come to a course we
think will make for a great tournament."
This is a tremendous honor for one of the top golf courses in central
Florida, with accolades such as 4 ½ stars from Golf Digest,
"Top Ten New Courses Since 2000" by Travel & Leisure magazine, Best
18th Hole in Florida by Florida Golf Central magazine, and others.
Even if your next seventeen drives don't turn out as well as your
first, at least you have something to build on. Eagle Creek has
an Orlando golf school, the
Graves Golf Academy offering golf lessons where you can fine
tune your game.
But that can wait until tomorrow. After your round share a meal and
drinks with friends at the Belfry, recognized as one of the best "19th Holes" in central Florida by Orlando magazine. The Belfry offers up a picturesque view of Eagle Creek's challenging, water-flanked par 5, 18th hole.
Join us for a day of golfing challenge and excitement at our exquisite central Florida golf course, Eagle Creek Golf Club. |
