Golf Courses

Innisbrook Golf Resort is world-renowned for its four championship courses, each with a distinct personality and challenge. All designed by legendary architect Lawrence Packard, the courses make Innisbrook one of the top golf resorts in Florida.

• Copperhead Course - Host of the PGA Tour's Valspar Championship, Copperhead is a demanding test with tree-lined fairways, elevation changes, and tricky greens. The course is ranked within the top 100 courses in Florida.

• Island Course - Known for its natural beauty, the Island Course wraps around Lake Innisbrook with water on several holes. Its tight fairways and championship pedigree make it a standout.

• South Course - A forgiving parkland-style layout with wide fairways and scenic views, the South Course is perfect for mixed groups.

• North Course - Nicknamed “Little Copperhead,” this shorter 9-hole course offers plenty of strategy and is ideal for a warm-up round.

Alongside the excellent courses, the resort boasts a driving range, a dedicated short game practice area, and multiple putting greens.

Travel tip: The best time for golf in Florida is between November and April, when the weather is cooler and drier. Summer months can be hot and humid, so early morning tee times are recommended.
