The Club at Eaglebrooke
About
Eaglebrooke, located in Lakeland -- halfway between Orlando and Tampa, is considered one of the premier golf courses in Florida. Its classic links-style design with over 100 feet of elevation change is unique in this part of the state. Natural lakes, abundant with wildlife, can come into play on eleven of the holes creating both spectacular scenery and challenging golf shots. To increase the challenge, there are six sets of tees on each hole. The "seniors" tees were customed designed for the course by architect Ron Garl. Garl requested Senior Golf Magazine to survey seniors for optimal playing preferences and then included these requests in the course design. The atmosphere is first class and the course features bag pick-up at your car. Eaglebrooke was the first course in the US to use Greg Norman's GN 1 grass, the fastest growing and greenest grass available.

GREAT LAYOUT AND CONDITION
WONDERFUL COURSE...HOWEVER, IF ITS TO BE IN THE BIG LEAGUES HAVE YOUR CART ATTENDANTS BE A LITTLE MORE ATTENTIVE.. RUSHED TO CLEAN MY CLUBS TO GET A TIP BUT NEVER OFFERED TO PUT CLUBS IN MY CAR TRUNK.. WOULD HAVE BEEN A NICE TOUCH SINCE WE ARE SENIOR CITIZENS AND THE CLUBS ARE HEAVY . MAY HAVE GOTTEN AN EVEN BIGGER TIP.
Best Course in Lakeland
I moved down to Lakeland a little less than two months ago and I have played many courses in Lakeland, and this course is by far the best one in town! We have had a lot of rain lately, so on the back nine it was cart path only. Very challenging for every skill level, even the best golfers. It will give you a very good test, but you will be rewarded if you hit the right shot! If you haven't played here, make sure you do soon before the prices sky rocket this winter!
Hi "u1436280" Thank you so much for the excellent review! The course is extremely challenging for all skill levels so we are so glad you enjoyed it. Don't forget to book your tee time with us this holiday weekend!
Loved the layout
Ron Garl did his usual--design a course which fits in extremely well with the topography. It was challenging, but yet fun to play. The staff were very friendly.
Hi "Garymusselman" Thank you for the excellent review. We are so glad that you enjoyed your round and the course today. We will definitely pass along the kind remarks regarding the golf staff, please come back and visit us again in the near future.
Slow Play
Was told by starter that the group in front of us should be on the 3rd hole already but we caught them on the 2nd tee box. Slowed our round of golf by 45 minutes at least.
HI "u000007385404" Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We apologize about the group in front on you as we also press for proper golf etiquette.
Hidden gem!
For this time of year it was very impressive to see a course in this good of shape. The greens are great and the fairways are perfect. The only thing that I could find wrong was the fairway bunkers. Which to me I could care less. This is a great course for the price and the range is 5 star!
HI "silkystick10" Thank you so much for the excellent review. We value your feedback in regards to the course conditions and driving range. We hope to see you again in the near future!
Always in good condition
Eaglebrooke is the best public/semi-private course in the Lakeland area. It is always in good condition with excellent greens. The course has a mix of some relatively easy and some very difficult holes.
The eighteenth is a highlight of the course and is a very challenging finishing hole.
The course is highly recommended.
Hi "chrisjohns" Thank you so much for the excellent review. We are so glad you enjoyed your day with us. Don't forget to book your holiday tee time with us this weekend!
New favorite place
This is a open to the public golf course with the amenities of a private club. Great value for the money, the layout is nice and challenging, the greens are in great shape.
Hi "JuNNiT' Thank you so much for the excellent review! We value your feedback in regards to the course conditions. Don't forget to book your labor day tee time with us this weekend!
Great Course
This course has alway been in great condition. I could not see a flaw from t to Green Great greens rolled well.
Hi u000001680761
Thank you so much for the excellent review! We are so glad that you enjoyed your time with us today!
Eaglebrooke very bad experience
I'm very surprised to say, I felt Very uncomfortable golfing at Eaglebrooke on 7/9/16. . My tee time was 1:50 pm with temp near 95. High humidity.
I showed up 1:25 minutes early. I was told with attitude I was early, duh (like who cares since no one was golfing at that time) ! I was told I would not be allowed to use the driving range or chipping area till 1hour before, because I bought the tee time on-line? I would Not be allowed to tee off till exactly my tee time. So I sat till my partner showed up. We practiced and waited, and told that next time the driving range would be $10 hour. And we must wait till exactly 1:50pm. The group ahead of us tee'd off at 1pm, No body was there. 15 min before we could tee off we were told we'd have to wait some more for a 2-some that just arrived. WHAT I need to wait more? I said NO I'm off at exactly 1:50pm. Then I was told I'm being uncooperative.
I never plan to play again there and I live on the 9th hole. Too many courses to play that want me. I felt like a bother and not welcome. Is management making these decisions? I hope not ! Please brush up your workers customer skills as this is the backbone of any successful company.
There is a big disconnect between customer service and common sense here............ Get it together Eagelbrooke your not a cheap course to play and the red carpet should be put out for ALL.of your customers.
Hi “WayneDeer”
We apologize about your recent experience at the club today. As part of our partnership agreement with GolfNow we only allow a few pre-paid tee times per day. One of these pre-paid times are the 1:50PM tee time that you purchased on this particular day. Due to our agreement we are unable to change the time or the price of these times. Because these pre-paid times are already discounted significantly we could not allow you to tee off earlier at the more expensive times of the day. As for your experience at the driving range, we have club rules set in place for all public play so that we do not disrupt any privileges that our members have at the club. We allow all public play an hour before their tee time, complimentary access to the range and putting and chipping areas. We do allow the public to purchase extra range access at a fee of $10 an hour for unlimited range balls per hour. In your response you mention that there was a twosome allowed to tee off in front of your 1:50 PM tee times, these groups were members who pay the club an annual membership fee and reserved the 1:35 PM tee time. We hope that you will see by the other reviews listed on Golfadvisor and our 97.4% recommendation rate that we treat all customers equally. We hope that you will give us another chance to exceed your expectations on your next round with us.
Great Course!
Only got in 15 because of Thunderstorms. Looking forward to going back!
michaelp58,
We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your round with us, we are sorry that you were caught in the thunderstorm but look forward to your next round with us soon! Come say 'hi" to us in the pro shop!!
all the very best,
Eaglebrooke GC management
This course is well maintained
Both the fairways and greens are in great shape. Most fairways are very wide to give even the average golfer a fair chance to par the hole but still long enough to test the better golfers
svillademoros -
WOW, we are truly BLOWN AWAY by the awesome review of us! Thank you for playing and providing your feedback of your last round here! We hope that you can come back again very soon!!
Take care,
Eaglebrooke GC Management
Beautiful Course
The course was cart path only because of heavy rains recently was very playable. Fairways were lush and the rough was deep. Holes are very appealing to the eye and the course has water hazards in play on many holes. The greens have a few rough spots but are acceptable. This is a nice course, and I enjoyed the round.
ss51,
thank you for choosing to play with us and for taking the time to provide your feedback! as our golfers opinion means the most to us, we were pleased to read just how much you enjoyed your time here! we hope that you can come back again very soon for another great day of golf here at Eaglebrooke!
See you soon,
Eaglebrooke GC Management
Gem
The only issue was the greens. They were plugged about two weeks ago. They are coming back in nicely-still little bumpy putting with sand. I give it another week or two. However, it was still a great day out on the course. Fairways and other areas are spot on! Staff always friendly.
u953580705,
We are so sorry to hear that our greens were not in top condition during your round. We appreciate your feedback and are happy to hear you had an otherwise enjoyable experience!
Best,
Eaglebrooke Management
Notification on green condition
Had a great day at the course but the greens had just been air rated and heavy sanded. We know this has to be done but we should of been informed before we booked and certainly not charged top dollar.
bodmintel,
We apologize for the miscommunication. Thank you for your review, we appreciate your feedback.
Best,
Eaglebrooke Management
Top Notch!!!
Great facility with top notch service and by far the best course in the area!!!! Cannot wait to play this course again.

Worth The Drive
I took a group of 7 golfers out from the Tampa area. This was the first time playing this course for all of us. To a man everyone said they would make the drive again. The value and the course, range balls, with cart you can't beat. The course was in excellent shape and the people were very nice
Nice course
Very nice course, set up is great. Only thing I grump about is that the driving range runs along hole 1. Need to stay left, but still wish range balls were not on the fairway.
Outstanding Facility
I play golf all over the Tampa Bay area and other than TPC of Tampa Bay, I don't believe I have rated any other facility "Excellent." Eaglebrooke is an outstanding club, great course layout in excellent condition, but also with fantastic practice facilities as well. Green were fast and in great shape. Can't say enough good things. Take the drive to Lakeland and play The Club at Eaglebrooke.
Beautiful GolfClub and range
Great coarse great practice area. Friendly staff
Striker#1
My buddies and I had a great time playing this course on 4/09/16. We could not have chosen a better golf venue for our golf outing. The employees at the club house and the starter box were extremely pleasant and friendly. Overall it was an excellent experience for all of us. We highly recommend this golf course to anyone!
Hi "Benito4995318" Thank you so much for the excellent review. We are so pleased you enjoyed your outing with us. Please come back and visit us again soon.
HI "georgemhostal " Thank you so much for the great feedback. We will definitely talk to our staff and see if we can work on this. We appreciate you letting us know and hope to see you again in the near future.
