About this course

Miami Lakes Golf Club is a daily-fee facility located in the planned community of Miami Lakes in northwestern Miami-Dade County. The course was designed by Bill Watts and Kipp Schulties, both Florida-based architects who have worked extensively on municipal and accessible golf projects throughout the state. The layout reflects the flat South Florida terrain typical of the region, with water hazards and native vegetation playing significant roles in the design strategy. The course occupies land within a residential area developed in the 1960s by the Graham family, whose planned community concept integrated recreational amenities with housing. Miami Lakes Golf Club serves both local residents and visiting golfers seeking an affordable option in the greater Miami area. The routing navigates around lakes and wetlands that are characteristic of the Everglades periphery, requiring accurate shot placement on approach shots and around the greens. As a public-access course in a major metropolitan area, Miami Lakes Golf Club provides year-round play in South Florida's subtropical climate. The facility caters to a diverse membership and daily-fee clientele, offering a straightforward test of golf without the exclusivity or premium pricing of private clubs in the region. The course represents the type of accessible golf infrastructure that has allowed South Florida to maintain a broad base of recreational players despite the area's rapid urbanization over recent decades.

Getting there

Miami Lakes Golf Club lies just beyond the northern edge of metropolitan Miami, a straightforward twenty-minute drive from Miami International Airport along the Palmetto Expressway as the urban sprawl gradually softens into residential canals and manicured greenspace. Those arriving by private aircraft often touch down at Opa-locka Executive Airport, a historic facility mere minutes to the east. The final approach trades elevated highway for tree-lined boulevards and quiet waterways, delivering you to a surprisingly serene enclave where the hum of the city fades beneath the rustle of palms and the stillness of South Florida's inland lakes.
