Grasslands Golf & Country Club occupies a former cattle ranch site in southeast Lakeland, where rolling terrain and natural wetlands shape the layout. The course incorporates stands of live oak and bald cypress that predate development, forcing several fairways to curve around preserved tree lines. Water enters play on nine holes, primarily in the form of elongated ponds and drainage canals that were part of the original ranch irrigation system. Greens are built to USGA specifications and vary in size according to the angle of approach; the larger putting surfaces sit on the flatter parcels once used for hay storage. Cart paths follow the historic ranch roads, keeping players away from low-lying areas that still flood after heavy summer rains. The practice facility includes a short-game area sodded with the same TifEagle grass found on the greens, allowing players to rehearse shots they will encounter on the course itself.
