Wedgefield Golf Club

Wedgefield Golf Club sits in the eastern Orlando area, occupying gently rolling terrain characteristic of central Florida's interior landscape. Designed by Roy Albert Anderson and opened in the early 1970s, the course reflects the straightforward, playable design philosophy common to Florida golf of that era. Anderson, a regional architect active primarily in the Southeast, created a layout that works with the natural contours and vegetation of the property rather than imposing dramatic manufactured features. The routing moves through corridors of mature pines and oaks, with water hazards appearing on several holes as both strategic elements and natural drainage features. The course presents a traditional parkland character, with tree-lined fairways that reward accuracy off the tee while remaining accessible to mid-handicap players. Elevation changes, modest by Florida standards, add visual interest and occasional uneven lies that distinguish the layout from the state's flatter coastal designs. Wedgefield operates as a semi-private facility serving both members and daily-fee players in the greater Orlando region. The course has maintained its original routing and design intent through the decades, offering a contrast to the resort-style layouts that dominate the area's golf landscape. Its location east of the main tourist corridor places it in a more residential and local-oriented setting, where the pace of play and club atmosphere reflect traditional Florida golf culture rather than destination tourism.
