OAKS NATIONAL GOLF CLUB
🇺🇸 Kissimmee, FL, USA
Designed by Gary Player, Karl Litten

Oaks National opened in 2003 as a Gary Player Signature Design, with Karl Litten serving as design associate. The course sits in Kissimmee, south of Orlando, where it occupies rolling terrain unusual for central Florida. The property features mature oak trees and natural elevation changes that give the layout a character distinct from the flatter, more manufactured courses common to the region.
The routing takes advantage of the land's movement, with fairways that rise and fall through corridors of oaks and native vegetation. Water comes into play on several holes, typical of Florida golf, but the design relies more on strategic bunkering and the natural contours to create interest. The greens feature Player's characteristic undulation, rewarding accurate approach shots and testing short game skills around the putting surfaces.
Oaks National operates as a semi-private facility, offering both member and daily fee play. The course has served the greater Orlando golf market as an upscale option that provides a different visual and playing experience from the resort courses that dominate the area. The combination of Player's design philosophy—emphasizing risk-reward options and multiple tee placements—and the property's natural assets produces a layout that appeals to a range of skill levels while maintaining challenge from the back tees.
