Lakes Course

Naples is one of Florida's most golf-saturated communities, with more courses per capita than almost anywhere else in the state, and the Lakes Course drops you into that culture on the southwest Gulf Coast. The name signals what you'd expect from this part of Collier County: water in play throughout, demanding accurate ball-striking over and around the lakes and ponds that define so many layouts in this flat, low-lying terrain. Florida golf at this latitude trades elevation change for strategic complexity — here, that means tight lines off the tee and approach shots where the margin for error shrinks fast when the wind comes off the Gulf.
