Description
A unique opportunity awaits individuals, families and corporations interested in experiencing a private country club whose centerpiece is one of St. Petersburg’s premier championship golf courses. The opportunity we describe will provide you with a personal tour and introduction to a championship course made famous by years of tournament memories.
St. Petersburg Country Club opened as Lakewood Country Club in 1924. Charles Hall was the developer of Lakewood Estates and Herbert Strong designed the golf course. The name was changed in May of 2000 to reflect that we are “The Club” of St. Petersburg and the only true private equity owned club in South Pinellas County.
The golf course has a wonderful layout that is fair for players of all handicaps and challenging to the best players. The absence of parallel fairways allows for fast play and the enjoyment of solitude. The length of the course from the championship tees is 6718 yards, 6228 yards from the white tees, 5593 gold tees and 5374 from the Ladies’ red tees.
The proximity to the Gulf and Tampa Bay guarantees a breeze with numerous direction changes. The strength of the course is in the middle with 6 consecutive par 4’s. Holes 10, 11, 12, and 13 are good tests of golf and after the par three 14th, the most challenging 4 par on the golf course is the 15th hole. Play those holes well and you are rewarded with the ability to score well on the par 5 – 16th, par 3 – 17th, and the par 5 – 18th. The best compliment of the layout is that there is not a bad hole on the course.
Our course is home to the New Year's Invitational - the longest running Invitational Tournament in the Southeast and one of the oldest in the Country.
Our PGA Head Golf Professional, Terry Decker was just named the WCC (West Central Chapter) PGA Golf Professional of the Year. Brittany Lincicome, our LPGA Touring Pro won the Ginn Open in 2007 and is the 2006 HSBC Women's World Match Play Champion.
St. Petersburg Country Club offers a variety of membership categories providing activities for the entire family. These categories include: Golf, Tennis, House and Corporate. However, as with most established clubs, opportunities are limited.
In addition to our regular membership categories, we are currently offering One Year Introductory Memberships - a fantastic way to check out the club as a member with a short term committment and reduced rates that are tiered by age so they are extremely attractive to the Young Professional as well as the Retired Individual.
As a member of beautiful St. Petersburg Country Club, you'll become part of our 80-year tradition that has been enjoyed for generations by people just like you.
