Lely Resort
Lely Resort Golf & Country Club is home to three well-rated and always popular golf courses. The Classics by Gary Player is Lely Resort's private, member-only course with its own separate clubhouse.
The Flamingo Island layout is one of the last courses designed by the legendary acrhitect Robert Trent Jones Sr. The Mustang by Lee Trevino is designed as a generally forgiving layout, although 12 lakes and extensive bunkering will need to be navigated around during your round.
These open parkland layouts should not disappoint, with many attractive features and several excellent holes to enjoy. Plenty of golfing challenge, well-crafted designs and usually good upkeep all contribute to the appeal of these courses. Well worth including on your play list if you are in the area.
