Streamsong Resort (Blue course)

5-star: Fabulous – courses don’t get much better than this.

Est. 2012

Streamsong Resort (Blue course):for many years in the early-2000s, new high-end golf course developments were something of a rarity. Streamsong bucked the trend, launching a stunning suite of world-class designs. First up in 2012 was the Red course, created by Bill Coore & Ben Crenshaw, and Tom Doak's Blue course. The resort has since added the Black course (by Gil Hanse) and Bone Valley course (by David McLay-Kidd). There's also Coore-Crenshaw's excellently crafted 19-hole short course on which to hone your skills.

The Tom Doak designed Blue course is reputedly the easier-going of the two original Streamsong layouts. However, the Blue makes up for its wider fairways and less water in play, with one or two blind tee shots, and large exuberantly undulating greens.

The Red and Blue courses are on a roughly equal footing regarding the amount of undulation and elevation change, and both have an abundance of voracious bunkers and sandy waste areas. On occasions both courses leave the towering dunes, taking you through grassy plains and a more savanna-like environment.

Pick of the holes: the par-3 7th is most people's favourite hole on the Blue, and the most photographed on the property. Himalayan dunes surround the back and sides of the green, while water must be crossed 'twixt tee and green. This delightful one-shotter is played in a picturesquely secluded area between the sand dunes.

Stay&Play at Streamsong: luxury onsite accommodation is available in the Lodge and Clubhouse (see Where2Stay section below).

Did you know?

The Streamsong Resort was developed by the long-time owners of the land, The Mosaic Company, the largest U.S. producer of potash and phosphate fertiliser. The golf courses are built on the site of a former Mosaic phosphate strip mine.

The course names at Streamsong (particularly for the Red and Blue layouts) were apparently chosen based on the colour of the ink used by the designers when drawing the respective course routings on the same map.

Blue course:
Florida's 9th best course (Golf Digest, 2025/26).
USA's 166th best course, and 26th best public access course (Golf Digest, 2025/26).
