DeBary
DeBary Country Club is located three miles off the Interstate Highway (I-4) near Deltona, and equidistant between Orlando and Daytona Beach.
This handsomely crafted and attractive course is routed through a residential development, while retaining a pleasantly natural feel for much of the layout.
The housing, which lines both sides of many holes, is kept discreetly tucked-away behind plenty of tall pines, oaks and smaller bushes. Water is only in play at the close of each nine-hole loop, with the 9th and 18th arriving back at the clubhouse, their respective greens flanked by a small, fountain-adorned lake.
With water not too much in evidence, and an absence of penal rough, large and expansive bunkering provides the principal hazard. Added to this are one or two tightish drives to be made, although generally the rolling, tree-lined fairways are spacious enough from the tee. Many attractive holes occupy pleasantly undulating terrain, with tall pines providing an impressive backdrop to several holes.
Defended by imposingly large bunkers, the greens are often small, round and full of subtle breaks and borrows. With its attractive collection of well-bunkered par-3 holes, DeBary sets up to provide a fair and enjoyable golfing challenge.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.

The city of DeBary sits to the east of the Lower Wekiva River Preserve State Park, where the Wekiva River flows into Florida's largest river, the St Johns. This vast Wekiva River wetland area, with its many blackwater streams, is home to black bears, river otters, alligators, wood storks and sandhill cranes. The State Park is open to the public.
Sony Open in Hawaii: played at Waialae Country Club near Honolulu, the Sony Open takes over the spotlight from The Sentry as the PGA Tour’s calendar-year opening event (Jan 15-18). The Sentry (not being played in 2026) was formerly known as the Tournament of Champions, with a field typically restricted to golfers who won a PGA Tour event in the previous calendar year.
Dubai Desert Classic: the DP World Tour’s first Rolex Series event of 2026, is contested for the 37th time (Jan 22-25). First won by Englishman Mark James in 1989, it now boasts a four-time winner, Rory McIlroy. Played on the Emirates Golf Club’s Majlis course, this once desert-surrounded course is the long-time flagship for Golf in Dubai.
Our visit last month included two rounds at Golf de Chantilly, one of France’s most prestigious clubs.
It offers two superb layouts: Le Vineuil, a five-star championship course with a rich history, and Longères, an excellent four-star course that provides a strong and enjoyable test.
The wider Paris region offers plenty more. Courses such as Fontainebleau, Golf de Saint-Germain, and several other top-rated layouts make this area one of Europe’s most rewarding golf destinations, offering a mix of woodland, heathland, and parkland designs.
The Dutch: "It's no' just a game", as they say in Scotland, and that's certainly true at The Dutch. With 5-star services throughout, a lavishly comfortable Loch Lomond-inspired clubhouse, and a superbly designed and presented golf course, one could not ask for more from this top-end private club.
Join us at The Dutch from August 21–24 for the Festival of Golf, featuring the HotelPlanner Tour. Experience four days of top-tier sport, live music, incredible food, and unexpected surprises.
