You can leave Innisbrook and head N and get to World Woods, the Dunes, and Black Diamond Ranch in about an hour.

Next year we'll have another candidate for them to look at while they're around Tampa.  But for now, I would think Old Memorial would be the place to see.  I still haven't seen it, though.

With the tour at Bay Hill this week, I'd head an hour southwest to Mountain Lake.

I misread that and was thinking you were recommending Sugarloaf and Mountain Lake for an Innisbrook alternative.


For Orlando,  I would guess Sugarloaf is as good as there is.

The Mountain Lake kool-aid has never affected me.

Isleworth....if only for another chance to shoot some hoops in the men's lounge.

With the tour in Houston this week...

How far away is Wolf Point?

Another option:

Whispering Pines in Trinity, 80 miles north Redstone

Whispering Pines just opened for the season last week. I drive like a granny and can we there from Redstone in 90 minutes. In town I'd make the 30 minute trek to Champions.

Whispering Pines closes for part of the winter? I assumed all South Texas courses were open year-round.

It is a seasonal club - open in the spring and the fall.

How about Champions Golf Club?  Hosted a Ryder Cup and a U.S. Open.

This Week: Tough call but I've wanted to play Long Cove for a long time, so I'll go with LCC too.

In San Antonio I would have played Briggs Ranch or Boot Ranch. This week in New Orleans I'd either play Metarie (which is a fun Raynor) or go up and play Money Hill, also a blast to play. If you want to go east your only about 90 minutes from Fallen Oak.

I'd skip the golf and head to New Orleans CC for the bread pudding.

Bump....

I've only played CCC and Scioto (other then the Village) and I think the later would be my choice of the two.

The Golf Club is by far the best option available in town imo.
