Golf enthusiasts, get ready for some thrilling updates! The Crown Colony Golf Club has announced a massive $12 million master plan aimed at transforming its golf course and related amenities. This major renovation is set to kick off in 2026, right after the club welcomes the 2025 U.S. Senior Open and the qualifying rounds of the U.S. Open.
The much-anticipated renovation will be designed by acclaimed architect Bill Bergin from Bergin Golf Designs. With a keen eye for aesthetics and function, Bergin aims to take the course to the next level while ensuring it remains enjoyable for all skill levels.
Among the slate of improvements, every aspect of the course will receive a facelift. This includes upgrading the irrigation and drainage systems across all 18 holes, which will help maintain optimal playing conditions year-round. But don’t worry—while the existing course routing will stay intact, there will be exciting redesigns of various elements such as the bunkers, greens, and tees.
Say goodbye to your usual grass types, as the course will transition to Platinum Paspalum grass throughout, providing better durability and playability for all golfers. Plus, there will be new or relocated tee boxes, allowing players to enjoy a versatile range that stretches from 4,300 to nearly 7,000 yards.
In keeping with Bergin’s vision, the course will blend a balanced mix of challenge and enjoyment, providing ample space for “less-than-perfect” golf shots. The bunkers will also get a makeover—look forward to visually appealing modified grass-face designs that not only enhance aesthetics but also contribute to the strategy of the game.
Every one of the 18 greens will be reworked, introducing new locations, shapes, and sizes, along with enhanced chipping areas to keep your short game sharp. A specific highlight will be the redesign of the 10th hole, which will improve visibility and offer exciting risk-reward options for the bold golfer.
As for the infamous 18th hole, expect even more thrill as the fairway will be moved closer to a large lake and the clubhouse, creating a picturesque finish to your round, while also expanding the practice area. And let’s not forget the addition of a fabulous new 4,000-square-foot events pavilion and bar, perfect for post-round celebrations!
The Crown Colony Golf Club boasts a low membership cap of only 260 golf members, ensuring exclusivity in a competitive golfing environment, thus enhancing the overall experience for members. This club has a rich history of hosting esteemed events, such as the 2022 LPGA Drive On Championship and the 2023 Florida Open, so it’s no surprise that the enhancements are part of a long-term improvement strategy.
Tree trimming will also be conducted throughout the course to encourage better ventilation and sunlight exposure, crucial for grass growth. In addition, new combo tees will allow players to adjust their positions, thus enhancing the overall playability of the course.
While these renovations are significant, the aim is to retain the unique characteristics and feel of the course that members have come to love. Many members are already buzzing with excitement about the reopening of the renovated course, which is scheduled for later in the year. Get ready, golfers—big changes are on the horizon at the Crown Colony Golf Club!
