Lakeside Golf Course
About
Editor's Note: Course closed for business in 2025.
Located less than an hour from Tampa and Orlando, LakeSide Golf & Country Club in Inverness has a unique and scenic setting with four holes that play around an abandoned phosphate mine. The challenging layout will test you with long par 5s and a slew of doglegs. Unlike some of the flatter, marshier golf courses you'll find throughout Florida, this layout has rolling, wide open fairways and large, undulating greens. Be prepared for more than 50 strategically placed bunkers lurking along the greens in addition to well placed smatterings of tall oaks and pines. The rough can also be very punishing if you're errant. There are some challenging holes but it's not overly daunting; beginners and casual golfers will still enjoy the golf course. There is also a driving range available at LakeSide Golf & Country Club.

Craters
How can a company that is building more condos have no money to put into a golf course. Alot of tees were temporary but I saw nothing being down to the permanent ones . craters in the fairway ,rough and cart paths make for a. bone jarring ride. Weeds all over even on the greens. Maintenance sheds and bathrooms look run down and unsafe but I played in 3 hours and the carts were newer.
Course conditions
Greens are in poor shape on the back 9. Temporary tee boxes on par 3 holes are terrible. A fair ir two have large areas with no grass. Still playable, but definitely degraded over the last month.
