About this course

The Links at Greenfield Plantation occupies a property in Bradenton, along Florida's Gulf Coast south of Tampa Bay. Designed by Chip Powell, the course sits within a residential community that takes its name from the area's agricultural history. The layout reflects the relatively flat topography common to this part of Florida's west coast, where elevation changes are modest and water management becomes a central design consideration. Powell's routing incorporates the natural wetlands and preserve areas that characterize the region's landscape. Water features appear throughout the course, both as strategic elements and as necessary components of the site's drainage system. The design balances playability for a range of skill levels with enough challenge to engage accomplished players, a typical approach for courses serving both member and resort play in Florida's competitive golf market. The course operates within a gated community setting, where golf serves as the primary amenity for residents and their guests. Bradenton's location provides access to the broader Sarasota-Bradenton area, a region with considerable golf density and year-round playing conditions. The climate allows for continuous maintenance of the bermudagrass playing surfaces typical of Florida courses, though summer heat and afternoon thunderstorms are seasonal factors. The facility includes practice areas and clubhouse amenities standard for residential golf communities in the state.

Getting there

The Links at Greenfield Plantation is most readily accessed via Tampa International Airport (TPA), approximately 90 minutes north, or the closer Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) near Fort Myers, roughly 60 minutes south - both offering straightforward rental transitions into the gentle, palm-studded landscape of central Florida's Gulf Coast corridor. For those arriving by private aviation, Sarasota-Bradenton International (SRQ) sits just 20 minutes away and welcomes jets with the discretion befitting an exclusive arrival. The drive into Bradenton traces a quiet path through the region's characteristic flatlands, where Spanish moss-draped oaks gradually give way to the manicured grounds of the plantation itself, a serene transition that announces your arrival at one of Florida's most distinguished private links long before the clubhouse comes into view.
