About This Course

The Sandhill Course references the sandy upland terrain that characterizes much of central Florida’s interior, a geological feature that influences how the land drains and how fairways play after rain. The executive layout is short-format and prioritizes accurate iron play over driving distance, fitting the casual but active golf culture at The Villages in Lady Lake. The course may incorporate the slightly firmer, faster-draining conditions of sandhill terrain.

Located in Lady Lake, the Sandhill Course is one of dozens of executive layouts available to residents of The Villages throughout the development. The trail’s sandhill-themed courses sit in contrast to the water-oriented layouts, offering drier, more open playing conditions. Residents can access all trail courses with a community membership, and the Sandhill layout provides an alternative to courses set near lakes or wetlands.

In the United States, genuine links-style courses are rare because the right combination of coastal land and sandy soil is hard to find. The most celebrated example is Bandon Dunes Golf Resort on the Oregon coast, where multiple courses including the Sheep Ranch sit on rugged bluffs above the Pacific. On the East Coast, Kiawah Island Golf Resort Ocean Course in South Carolina plays along the Atlantic with wide-open sight lines and relentless wind. Whistling...
