Links at Hammock Dunes Club

The Links at Hammock Dunes Club occupies oceanfront property along Florida's northeast coast in Palm Coast, between St. Augustine and Daytona Beach. Tom Fazio designed this course in the early 1990s as part of a residential community that would eventually feature two distinct eighteen-hole layouts. The Links represents Fazio's interpretation of seaside golf in a setting where natural dunes, native vegetation, and Atlantic winds shape the playing experience. The routing takes advantage of the coastal topography, with several holes playing directly along the ocean and others moving through transitional dune landscapes inland.

Fazio's design incorporates the sandy soil and elevation changes uncommon in much of Florida golf. The course features wide fairways that narrow at strategic points, large undulating greens, and bunkering that reflects both aesthetic and strategic purposes. Holes along the ocean provide expansive views and expose players to coastal wind conditions that can significantly alter club selection and shot strategy. The inland holes move through corridors of vegetation and utilize the property's natural contours.

Hammock Dunes Club operates as a private equity club serving a residential membership. The club's second course, The Creek, was designed by Rees Jones and offers a contrasting experience through marshland and intracoastal settings. The Links has appeared on various regional and state rankings of Florida courses, recognized particularly for its oceanfront setting and the quality of conditions maintained for member play.
