Experience this remarkable Orlando golf course, which takes its name from the pristine creek, which traverses the property. Early Central Florida settlers, circa 1800, were drawn to the area by the abundance of game, fishing, ancient cypress trees, and of course, the beautiful creek.
The ancient creek that the course at Shingle Creek Golf club takes its name from is part of the natural headwaters of the Florida Everglades. The creek winds through the golf course, adding beauty and an interesting element of challenge. Stately oaks and pines are scattered throughout and accented by tropical landscaping. The course features wide, undulating fairways lined with trees and fast greens. The interconnected waterways present on the course form water hazards that come into play on nearly every hole. Along with strategically placed bunkers throughout, especially around the fairways.
