ROTONDA GOLF & COUNTRY CLUB
🇺🇸 Rotonda West, FL, USA
Designed by John LaFoy

The Links at Rotonda Golf & Country Club is one of five courses within the Rotonda West development on Florida's Gulf Coast, designed by John LaFoy and opened in the 1970s as part of a planned residential community. LaFoy, who worked extensively in Florida during this era, created a layout that reflects the flat, subtropical terrain characteristic of Charlotte County, with water features and native vegetation shaping the playing corridors.
The course occupies land typical of southwest Florida's coastal plain, where elevation changes are minimal and strategic interest derives from water hazards, bunker placement, and the prevailing winds that blow in from the Gulf of Mexico. The routing incorporates the region's natural wetlands and preserves, with several holes playing along or across water that serves both as hazard and habitat for local wildlife including wading birds and alligators.
As part of the broader Rotonda development, the course serves a residential community built around a distinctive circular street pattern. The Links shares the golf-oriented character of Rotonda West with its neighboring courses, each offering a different design approach within the same environmental context. The layout provides a straightforward test suited to the daily play of members and residents, with conditions that vary seasonally based on Florida's wet and dry periods.
