About this course

South at Innisbrook Resort and Golf Club, carved into the Florida landscape near Palm Harbor, presents a captivating challenge far removed from typical resort play. Built in the early 1970s, it doesn't boast Golden Age pedigree, nor does it cling to modern championship length, but its strength lies in its strategic design and subtle complexities. The course meanders through gently rolling terrain, a pleasing departure from the often-flat Florida stereotype. Its parkland setting is defined by towering pines and strategic water hazards. South demands intelligent shot placement, rewarding thoughtful players who can manage its doglegs and well-guarded greens. While not a brute off the tee, wayward drives are severely penalized by thick rough and strategically placed bunkers. The layout subtly favors a strategic player. The club's appeal extends beyond the course itself. Innisbrook has a relaxed, social vibe. The club fosters a welcoming atmosphere for those seeking camaraderie on and off the course. The Grill Room is the place for a bite after play.

Getting there

Most arrivals to Innisbrook Resort and Golf Club route through Tampa International Airport, a comfortable thirty-minute drive northwest along the Gulf Coast corridor. The journey transitions quickly from interstate efficiency to the quieter, oak-canopied roads of northern Pinellas County, where the landscape softens into rolling terrain unusual for coastal Florida. Private aviation guests often favor St. Petersburg-Clearwater International or Tampa Executive, both offering discreet access within twenty minutes of the resort gates. The final approach winds through native palmetto and pine, delivering guests to a sprawling 900-acre sanctuary that feels worlds removed from the beaches just miles to the west.
