La Gorce Country Club

Just a few miles from the shores of Biscayne Bay, La Gorce Country Club has an interesting history that dates back to 1927. During World War II the nearby Bayshore Golf Club was being used as a training area and Army personnel would come and play at La Gorce. In 1969, Robert Trent Jones redesigned some of the holes. Although he reduced the amount of bunkers that were on the golf course, he added three water hazards where the course previously had none. The course features lush tropical landscaping and immaculate conditions. Australian pines and royal palms frame many of the holes. In addition to the golf course, La Gorce offers more than golf too with six tennis courts, four of which are lighted, a pool, croquet, and a fitness center.
