Lexington Oaks Golf Club


About this course
Lexington Oaks Golf Club sits in Wesley Chapel, a growing community in the Tampa Bay area of west-central Florida. Designed by Gordon G. Lewis and opened in the late 1980s, the course reflects the residential golf development style common to Florida during that era, with housing integrated into the layout and water features playing a significant role in both aesthetics and strategy. The routing takes advantage of the region's naturally flat terrain, enhanced by earth-moving that created elevation changes around greens and tees. Water comes into play on a majority of holes, typical for Florida courses where lakes and retention ponds serve both design and drainage purposes. The layout incorporates mature oaks and pines that frame fairways and provide definition, with the native vegetation contributing to the course's character as it has matured over the decades. Lewis, a Florida-based architect active primarily in the southeastern United States, designed numerous courses throughout the region during the 1980s and 1990s. His work at Lexington Oaks features the strategic elements common to his portfolio: generous landing areas balanced by well-positioned hazards, and greens that reward accurate approach play. The course serves both its membership and outside play, functioning as a neighborhood amenity within the Wesley Chapel community while remaining accessible to the broader Tampa area golf market.

Getting there
Lexington Oaks Golf Club sits in the rolling terrain north of Tampa, most easily reached via Tampa International Airport (TPA), roughly forty-five minutes south by car through the gentle sprawl of central Florida's horse country and residential enclaves. Private aviation traffic typically diverts to nearby executive facilities such as Peter O. Knight Airport (TPF) or Plant City Airport (PLC), each offering a more intimate arrival corridor into Pasco County's quieter precincts. The drive north from Tampa traces a gradual ascent through increasingly verdant landscape, where the flatness of the coastal plain gives way to subtle elevation and mature oak canopies that signal entry into Wesley Chapel's established golf community - a transition that culminates at Lexington Oaks' gated entrance, where manicured fairways and the club's signature architectural character emerge from beneath the native Florida canopy.
