Venetian Bay Course
New Smyrna, FL, USA
Venetian Bay Golf Club, nestled inland near New Smyrna Beach, offers a modern golfing experience distinct from its coastal surroundings. Carved from former flatlands, the course prioritizes playability for its membership more so than punishing wayward shots. Its generous fairways and strategic bunkering are more welcoming than daunting, a far cry from some of Florida's more penal layouts. Architects Arthur Hills and Steve Forrest designed the course in the early 2000s, prioritizing a player-friendly design. Undulating greens present the most formidable challenge, demanding a precise touch. Water comes into play on several holes, adding a scenic element without overwhelming the golfer. While not a regular stop on any professional tours, Venetian Bay maintains a strong local following. Members enjoy a relaxed atmosphere, with the course serving as a community hub.
