This unique Tom Fazio signature course has been touted as one
of the most enjoyable and playable courses to come along in
years. Accordingly, in 1996 "Golf Digest" included Emerald
Dunes in the "Top 10 You Can Play" in Florida and "Golf
Magazine" included it in the "Top 100 You Can Play" in
America.
Emerald Dunes was designed to be challenging yet
fair by professionals who possess the same passion for the
game as you. One of its' most exciting and unique features is the Superdune , a peak from which pamoramic views command your attention. Three tees, three greens, and a cascading waterfall are all built into this magnificent centerpiece which serves as the landmark for this outstanding golf course.
With five tees on each hole, it appeals to
players of every ability and provides a variety of play on
every round and is consistently maintained in top playing
condition. You will also notice superior service and a staff which is extremely helpful.
As an added service to all guests, they now provide
"Prolink" on all of their golf carts. Prolink is one of the
most advanced computerized satellite controlled yardage and
course information systems available in the world. You'll
be amazed at how Prolink enhances the game of golf and
improves the average pace of play.
