The gorgeous 18-hole, Seth Raynor-designed, Mountain Lake Golf Course provides stunning views that will take any player's breath away. The pristine layout also displays the influence of several other well-known course architects, namely Charles Banks, Gil Hanse, William Diddel, and Tyler Rae.
While repetition in modern architecture is sometimes chastised, the par 72 golf course was designed precisely. The Mountain Lake Golf Course measures 6,685-yards and remains a shining example of course design, even after all the years since its completion. With a reputation for being one of the top golf courses in Florida, having ranked as highly as 10th in the US rankings, this is routing that any players will enjoy today.
There are several signature holes on the Mountain Lake routing sure to challenge even the skilled golfer. Hole three is a par four featuring bunkers on the left side of the fairway at 220-yards, so players have to be extra careful when hitting off the tee. The fifth is a short par three with a large and inviting pond guarding the front of the green.
Aside from golf, members and their guests can stay active on the tennis and croquet courts at the club. The two tennis professionals at Mountain Lake Tennis offer individual and group instruction for all levels. At the same time, the two beautiful, well-maintained grass lawns are perfect for playing croquet.
In addition to the excellent Mountain Lake Golf Course, the club offers a swimming pool to relax in along with a range of practice facilities such as the driving range with chipping stations and putting greens that are perfect for players looking to improve their game. The golf school academy will teach amateurs to swing like the pros, and the club can provide rental clubs as well as carts.
