Designed by Jack Nicklaus


Porto Cima's opulent clubhouse, presiding high above the Lake of the Ozarks, serves as a visual reminder that this is a playground carved for those who demand, and appreciate, exclusivity. The course, while not steeped in generations of championship lore, provides a stern test with enough forgiveness to be enjoyed by a range of skill levels.
Crafted in the modern era, Porto Cima presents a resort-style layout that utilizes the rolling Ozark terrain. Expect generous fairways that still place a premium on approaches into well-protected, undulating greens. The course favors players who can work the ball right-to-left, although errant shots can be penalized by thick rough and strategically placed water hazards.
While Porto Cima hasn’t hosted major championships, it remains a popular destination for regional amateur events and boasts a fiercely loyal membership. The convivial atmosphere is cultivated, in part, by the club's commitment to creating a social hub that extends far beyond the 18th green.
One notable tradition at Porto Cima is the annual "Shootout," a member-guest tournament known for its spirited competition and lavish after-parties, reinforcing the club's reputation as a place where serious golf is balanced by a dedication to unadulterated enjoyment. This mirrors the lifestyle, where you'll be met with fine-dining, lake activities, and pure luxury for your enjoyment.
