Known for its captivating design by Donald Ross, the club’s facelift restores its original vision and features. The revitalized course has already drawn in golfers and enhanced Dunedin’s reputation as a premier golfing destination. With its rich history and beautiful scenery, Dunedin Golf Club is set to offer an exciting experience for both locals and visitors alike.
Welcome to Dunedin, Florida, where golf enthusiasts have something to celebrate! The historic Dunedin Golf Club, nestled just north of Tampa, has just completed an impressive $6 million restoration project that promises to revive the original design vision of famed course architect Donald Ross.
The club, which first opened its doors as the Dunedin Isles Golf Club back on January 1, 1927, is considered one of Ross’s finest creations. In fact, Ross himself called it “his masterpiece.” With its stunning rolling hills, picturesque waterways, and natural hazards, it’s no wonder that this course has a rich history filled with golf greatness. Just think, the city of Dunedin took ownership of the course way back in 1939 and went on to assume full management responsibility in 2024.
In its early days, the course was renamed the PGA National Golf Club when the PGA of America moved its headquarters here in 1944. Over the years, the club garnered quite a reputation, hosting the Senior PGA Championships for 18 consecutive years and kicking off the inaugural PGA Merchandise Show in 1954. Can you imagine the legendary players who graced these fairways?
Fast forward to today, and we find ourselves celebrating a momentous milestone! The $6 million restoration led by architect Kris Spence was carefully designed to bring back the course’s unique features and charm. For decades, renovations had reduced the size of the greens by a staggering 35-50%, straying far from Ross’s original vision. But during the restoration, it was discovered that the original greens were preserved beneath layers of later modifications, allowing for a remarkable archaeological restoration.
Spence and his team went to work, uncovering those original greens and painstakingly restoring their contours and elevation changes. They revamped everything from the green complexes and bunkers to the fairways and tees, making sure to align closely with Ross’s original design. Golfers will now get to experience what the course was truly meant to be, filled with a variety of challenges and captivating features, just as Ross intended.
What’s even more exciting? Dunedin Golf Club has solidified its position as one of Florida’s top municipal courses, standing proudly next to Winter Park Golf Course and The Park at West Palm Beach. With green fees ranging from $85 to $130 for an 18-hole experience—depending on the season—there’s a little something for everyone, including discounts for local residents.
Since reopening, the course has seen a fantastic response from golfers, with a noticeable spike in daily play. This revitalization has not only rejuvenated the course but has also enhanced Dunedin’s visibility as a premier golfing destination. Visitors who may not have known about this charming community are now flocking to the area, eager to experience everything this historic course has to offer.
So, if you’re a golf lover, or just looking for a beautiful place to play a few holes, now is the perfect time to check out the all-new Dunedin Golf Club! With the spirit of its rich history and the fresh touch of modern restoration, you won’t just be playing a game; you’ll be stepping into a legacy. Grab your clubs and come on down to Dunedin. The greens await your presence!
