The Miccosukee Golf & Country Club, located at 6401 Kendale Lakes Dr, is a public course. Formerly known as Miami National Golf Club, this facility has three individual nine hole courses that are played in three eighteen hole combinations. All the fairways are narrow due to an extremely thick cut of rough; however, there is only a scattering of trees that can affect your shots. Furthermore, numerous sand bunkers on the course may cause problems for the average player, and water hazards come into play at every corner on all three courses. The terrain is fairly flat, but there is some slight mounding that can occasionally leave you with an uneven lie. The large greens are undulating, and fast. Many scenic views of the countryside can be seen throughout these courses.

Of course, in South Florida there are dozens more courses in every community from Key West to Homestead to Ft. Lauderdale and Broward County all the way up to fabled West Palm Beach County. Listed below are a just a few of the courses located within ten miles of our hotel.  Visit the link at the bottom of this page for a good reference to most of the Sunshine State’s golf courses.
