About Lakewood National Golf Club

Lakewood National Golf Club sits within a residential community in Lakewood Ranch, Florida, where residents hold membership to the club's 36 holes of golf. The courses were designed by Arnold Palmer, drawing on agrarian landscapes, naturally rolling terrain and strategic design ideas from the Golden Age of golf architecture.

Beyond golf, the property includes a large clubhouse, a fitness center, lighted clay tennis courts, a beach-entry lagoon pool with casual poolside dining, and a full-service spa. On-site golf, fitness and racquet sports professionals work with members on instruction and training.
