The Club at Eaglebrooke to undergo greens renovation in April 2025

The Club at Eaglebrooke in Lakeland, Florida, will renovate its golf course in April 2025.

The course was originally designed by Ron Garl in 1996. Next year’s project will be the first substantial renovation to Eaglebrooke’s greens since the course opened for play. Work is expected to take six months and will be overseen by Florida-based contractor Mondragon Golf. All 18 greens will be rebuilt to their original dimensions and be resurfaced with TifEagle bermuda.

Two bridges on hole thirteen will be rebuilt, and the large bulkhead on the seventeenth will be renovated. There will also be some work completed on bunkers, tees, irrigation and drainage while the course is closed.

“The upcoming renovation will boost our goal of becoming the best semi-private facility in the Lakeland area,” said Ryan Roberts, general manager at The Club at Eaglebrooke. “When the course reopens next fall, non-member/public play will be more restricted. Therefore, if you are interested in joining The Club at Eaglebrooke, now is the best time – before initiation fees increase.”
