Miakka Golf Club's Championship Course is a new ultra-exclusive private 18-hole layout in Myakka City, co-designed by Fry/Straka Global Golf Design and PGA Tour player Paul Azinger, with groundbreaking in 2024 and opening anticipated in late 2025/early 2026 on 1,100 acres along the Myakka River. Inspired by Australian Sandbelt classics like Royal Melbourne and Kingston Heath, the course features wide fairways with minimal rough, vertical-edged bunkers casting dramatic shadows, waste areas filled with native plants for texture and color, sand-capped surfaces (4-inch depth with proprietary blend), and Zoysia grasses on tees, fairways, and greens for firm, fast, sustainable conditions year-round. It stretches approximately 7,700 yards as a par 72 across rolling terrain (rare for Florida), weaving through wetlands, mature oaks, and natural meadows with risk-reward opportunities and shot-making variety. Extensive underdrains, sodding, and a dedicated sod farm ensure pristine play, complemented by a 360-degree range, performance center, and eco-focus. Members of this curated club (capped membership) enjoy an unparalleled, modern yet timeless golf experience in a rustically elegant Florida Cracker-style setting with cabins and interim facilities.
