About this course

Lake Nona Golf & Country Club is defined not just by its meticulously manicured fairways, but by the legacy it has cultivated as a haven for some of the game's most accomplished players. Located in the heart of Orlando, the Tom Fazio design epitomizes modern golf architecture, sculpted across rolling Floridian terrain dotted with shimmering lakes and mature oak hammocks. It favors powerful ball-strikers comfortable shaping their shots into strategically placed landing areas, and demands both length and accuracy. Fazio's thoughtful routing blends seamlessly with the natural environment, creating a visually stunning and strategically challenging layout. While not a regular stop for major professional tournaments, Lake Nona has been a frequent host of elite amateur competitions and high-profile member-guest events, solidifying its reputation as a competitive proving ground. The exclusivity of Lake Nona extends beyond the course. The membership includes major champions, business leaders and other influencers, creating a unique atmosphere of camaraderie and shared passion for the game. Stories abound of impromptu matches and friendly wagers among members whose names resonate far beyond the club's gates, further cementing its prestige within golfing circles.

Getting there

Lake Nona Golf & Country Club sits within easy reach of Orlando International Airport (MCO), one of Florida's busiest hubs, positioned just twenty minutes south of the terminal via the Beachline Expressway and local roads that thread through the planned community's manicured landscape. For those arriving by private aircraft, Orlando Executive Airport (ORL) offers a more intimate gateway, situated mere minutes from the club's entrance and favored by members seeking discretion and convenience. The drive from MCO unfolds through the gradual transformation of greater Orlando's commercial sprawl into the carefully curated neighborhoods of Lake Nona, where tree-lined boulevards and resort-style amenities signal arrival at one of Florida's most meticulously designed golf communities. Lake Nona Golf & Country Club emerges as the centerpiece of this master-planned sanctuary, its championship layout and clubhouse facilities representing the culmination of a journey that balances accessibility with the quiet exclusivity of a private, gated enclave.
