ISLAND DUNES COUNTRY CLUB
🇺🇸 Jensen Beach, FL, USA
Designed by Joe Lee

Island Dunes Country Club sits along Florida's Treasure Coast in Jensen Beach, a region characterized by flat, sandy terrain and proximity to the Indian River Lagoon system. Joe Lee designed the course during his prolific period of Florida golf architecture, when he was creating layouts throughout the state that emphasized playability while working within the constraints of the peninsula's minimal elevation change. Lee's approach typically involved strategic bunkering, water features drawn from the natural drainage patterns, and generous fairways suited to the year-round play that defines Florida golf.
The routing at Island Dunes reflects the coastal lowland setting, with holes playing through corridors of native vegetation and past water hazards that serve both aesthetic and drainage purposes. Lee's design philosophy favored courses that accommodated a range of skill levels while still presenting thoughtful challenges in approach play and around the greens. The layout incorporates the kind of risk-reward opportunities common to his work, where players can choose aggressive lines or safer routes depending on conditions and confidence.
Island Dunes functions as a private country club serving the Jensen Beach community, offering the social and recreational amenities typical of Florida residential clubs. The course provides a home venue for members seeking consistent conditions in the subtropical climate, where Bermuda grass thrives and play continues throughout the calendar year. The club represents one of many Joe Lee designs that have shaped the character of Florida golf over several decades.
