The Preserve at Turnbull Bay features a Gary Wintz design situated along Florida's central Atlantic coast near New Smyrna Beach. Wintz, a regional architect with several Florida courses to his credit, routed this layout through native coastal terrain characterized by palmetto scrub, live oaks, and natural wetlands. The course takes its name from Turnbull Bay, part of the Intracoastal Waterway system that borders the property and influences both the setting and several holes along the routing. The design incorporates the low-lying topography typical of this stretch of Florida coastline, where elevation changes are minimal but natural water features and vegetation corridors create definition and strategic interest. Wintz's routing works with preserved natural areas, and the course emphasizes accuracy over distance in many situations, as native grasses and wetland margins frame fairways and approach shots. Wind from the nearby Atlantic can be a factor, particularly on holes with more open exposure. The Preserve operates as a semi-private facility, offering both member and public access. The club serves the New Smyrna Beach area, a coastal community known for its beaches and proximity to Daytona Beach to the north. The course provides a golf option that emphasizes the natural Florida landscape rather than heavily manufactured features, fitting the environmental character of this part of Volusia County's coastal zone.
