Southern Dunes Golf & Country Club sits on the sandy ridges of central Florida near Haines City. The course was designed by Ted McAnlis and opened in 1993. It features a series of large waste bunkers that run along many fairways and frame the edges of several greens. Multiple elevation changes, some as steep as 30 feet, create blind approach shots and force players to judge landing areas carefully. The irrigation system uses reclaimed water and maintains bent-grass greens that are rebuilt every ten years. A drainage network of French drains and retention ponds handles the region’s heavy summer rainfall. The clubhouse, finished in 1995, includes a 6,000-square-foot practice center with two covered hitting bays and a video analysis room. Maintenance records show that greens are verticut every 14 days during peak season and aerated twice a year. Cart paths are concrete and follow the natural contours to reduce runoff into adjacent wetlands.
