About this course

Island, one of four championship courses at Innisbrook Resort in Palm Harbor, Florida, might be considered the quiet sibling among a family of accomplished layouts. Designed in the early 1970s, Island displays a Modern architectural style playing a deceptively challenging game. Carved from the Florida landscape, Island presents a contrast to the more celebrated Copperhead course. The terrain is relatively flat, but the course is far from docile. Water hazards come into play on nearly every hole, demanding strategic thinking and accurate shot placement. Tight fairways and strategically placed bunkers punish errant drives, while subtle undulations on the greens test even the most seasoned putters. Island favors players who can control their ball flight and navigate the course's many challenges with precision. While Island hasn't hosted the same high-profile tournaments as Copperhead, it has consistently provided a stern test for professionals and amateurs alike. It remains a popular course for those seeking a challenging yet rewarding round.

Getting there

Innisbrook Resort and Golf Club is most easily reached via Tampa International Airport (TPA), roughly forty-five minutes south along Florida's Gulf Coast corridor, or via the smaller St. Petersburg-Clearwater International Airport (PIE), a mere twenty minutes away for those prioritizing convenience over scale. Private aviation clients will find direct access through Tampa Executive Airport (TPA-XE) or the nearby Clearwater Air Park, both offering seamless ground transfers to the resort's sprawling 900-acre grounds in Palm Harbor. The drive itself traces the gentle transition from urban Tampa through the quiet residential enclaves of Pinellas County, the landscape gradually opening onto the lush, manicured grounds where live oaks and native palmettos frame the resort's championship courses and Spanish colonial-style clubhouses.
