The Club at Eaglebrooke in Lakeland, Florida – a Ron Garl design that opened in 1996 – will close for a six-month renovation in 2025 focused on rebuilding all 18 greens.
The semi-private facility has never had a large-scale renovation. Mondragon Golf, a Florida-based course construction company, will do the work that is scheduled to begin in April and wrap up in October.
The greens will be resurfaced with Tifeagle Bermuda grass. Other work will include rebuilding bridges and a large bulkhead. The agronomy team also plans to work on select drainage, irrigation, tee boxes and bunker improvements.
“The upcoming renovation will boost our goal of becoming the best semi-private facility in the Lakeland area,” Ryan Roberts, Eaglebrooke’s general manager, said in a media release announcing the renovation. “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.”
Eaglebrooke is managed by Indigo Sports, a Troon Company. The Arizona-based Troon is the largest golf and golf-related hospitality management company with more than 900 locations around the world, including responsibility for 575-plus 18-hole-equivalent courses.
