Laurel Oak Real Estate

The definite highlight of this club has to be the 2, 18 hole golf championship courses that were thoughtfully designed for challenge by Gary Player. Just recently the West Course underwent a complete reconstruction using new Rees Jones design elements but all are interwoven into the fabric of the residential community. The residences in the Laurel Oak community line the wetlands, nature preserves, and the course fairways. Because of its lush and scenic beauty and consistent attention to preserving the fragile balance of nature, the community and the courses have been certified as an Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary.

Laurel Oak’s East Course was opened in 1990, is a par of 72, and measures close to 6,875 yards from the furthermost tees. The course is Bermuda grass surfaced, has a slope rating of 143 with an overall course rating of 73.7.

The West Course, also a par 72, measures out at 6,934 yards from its outermost tees. This course was brilliantly envisioned by Gary Player, but a total Rees Jones redesign that included Bermuda grass surfacing, was completed in 2006. The end result is championship play on not 1, but 2 stellar courses designed with concern for the natural beauty and conservation of wildlife habitats Laurel Oak Country Club is known for.
