The recent restoration work on the front 9 by Gil Hanse has brought back the historic green sizes and introduced much more dynamic putting surfaces and pin positions. The back 9 is as strong a routing as you will ever find anywhere…

I absolutely loved this place. Every city needs a public course like The Park — one that gets everything right from start to finish. From the practice area to the food and beverage setup to the course itself, it’s dialed in and built for golfers who just love the game.

From start to finish I found Red to be the least polarizing of the 3 on property. With the short grass everywhere, the runoffs are much less obvious from a distance compared to the bold features of Blue and the scale of Black.

This course is overshadowed because of the sheer volume of great clubs in the immediate area but I think it’s among the best. Conditioning is superb and it’s very quiet and secluded for a South Fl course.

How we rank
This ranking uses each golfer’s layout rating, on a 0.5–5 scale. Layout is the layout score golfers give when they log a round. Every golfer counts once per course: repeat rounds are averaged first, then the course score is the average across golfers. A course needs layout ratings from at least 5 different golfers. Ties go to the course with more golfers, then the higher Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. State pages include courses across Florida. Rankings refresh about hourly.
