Las Lagunas at Las Lagunas Country Club

Las Lagunas Country Club occupies a distinctive site in Santo Domingo, the capital of the Dominican Republic, where Pete Dye and Edwin Jack Corrie collaborated on a design that reflects Dye's characteristic approach to tropical and Caribbean golf. The course sits on relatively flat terrain, and the architects incorporated water features throughout the routing—a common strategy in the region both for drainage and strategic interest. The layout makes use of the natural vegetation and introduces the kind of bold bunkering and target-style challenges that define Dye's work from this era.

The course serves as the centerpiece of a private residential community in the National District, catering primarily to local members and expatriates. Santo Domingo's position as the oldest continuously inhabited European settlement in the Americas gives the club a setting rich in history, though the course itself is a modern creation. The climate allows for year-round play, and the maintenance standards reflect the expectations of a private club in a major metropolitan area.

Las Lagunas represents one of the more established golf facilities in the Dominican Republic, a country better known internationally for its resort courses along the northern and eastern coasts. The design emphasizes accuracy over distance, with water hazards and strategic bunkering requiring thoughtful course management. The club maintains a relatively low profile compared to the island's resort destinations, focusing instead on providing a consistent home course for its membership.
