Demanding for pros yet fun for all players, Bardmoor epitomizes Florida golf at its finest. Pristinely manicured, the course features TifEagle greens that rival tour status. State-of-the-art practice facilities, an award-winning golf shop, and outstanding service complete your experience. PGA Tour winner Gary Koch completed renovations in 2001 and his mastery is still paying dividends. In fact, in our opinion Bardmoor has never looked better. The club is located southwest of Tampa in the town of Largo (near St. Petersburg).

As the centerpiece of a gated community, The Bayou Club is a classic Tom Fazio design. Fazio's genius is most evident on the back-to-back par 5's on the front side and back-to-back par 3's on the back. You'll surely be wowed by the entire layout, but the killer 216-yard 16th hole is something extra special. With 419 Bermuda fairways and Tifdwarf greens, you'll also be wowed by course conditions. If that's not enough, the 32,000-sq-ft clubhouse will certainly put you over the top with full-service dining, fitness facilities, swimming and much more!

The Copperhead Course at Innisbrook is considered one of the best resort courses in the country (as rated by Golf Digest) and is host to The Transitions Championship, a PGA Tour event. The par-71 course plays over 7,350 yards from the back tournament tees and is a very stern test of golf with terrific greens. The course is best characterized by its tree-lined fairways and rolling natural setting. It's actually more reminiscent of a Carolina layout than its location on Florida's West Coast. Play where the pros play.

"Copperhead is the best course we play on TOUR." — Paul Azinger, 2008 US Ryder Cup Captain

One of Innisbrook's four championship courses, the Island Course, was the first to open for play in December of 1970, and still offers Innisbrook's most diverse golfing challenge. Just slightly shorter in length than the famed Copperhead, the Island unfolds into 18 truly unique holes. The varying terrain, coupled with a variety of tee placements, can challenge both the professional player as well as the weekend golfer. The Island's first six holes are dominated by lateral water hazards and fairly level terrain which require pin point accuracy on both tee shots and approaches. The middle six holes feature rolling hills dominated by cypress and pine trees. The final six boast a mixture of holes designed to reward the bold yet penalize the errant golf shot. Finally, the layout winds down to an 18th hole that will test the nerves of even the most steady. What a golf course!

This beautiful 18-hole layout has tight fairways and well-bunkered greens, placing a costly premium on accuracy from tee to green. Wildlife abounds here, as it does on all of Innisbrook's courses, and includes several families of Red-Tail Hawks on the back nine, many Ospreys on the lakes around holes 3 through 7, and several alligators!

Innisbrook's South Course features many a great selection of holes. Among its many challenges is the 210-yard, par-3 9th hole, featuring a very difficult-to-hit island green. The 6,620-yard course offers abundant water and other hazards of differing forms including well-bunkered greens and waste areas reminiscent of Pinehurst.

Thirty minutes northwest of Tampa in Palm Harbor, you'll find one of the area's undiscovered gems. Bordered by stands of trees, this tight layout has no parallel fairways, making it an unusual design. With water on 16 holes, shotmaking and correct club selection are essential. Lansbrook has recently replaced the greens with smooth running Tifdwarf Bermuda and the course is maintained in absolutely perfect condition. For Masters' fans, hole #11 is reminiscent of #16 at Augusta National.
