Estate History in the Making Designed by Karl Litten, The Estate course presents an enjoyable combination of challenging and docile holes. The course sets up for any level of player, as it is one of the shorter courses at PGA National Resort. Where you’ll be tested is in the formidable placement of fairway bunkers and water penalty areas. Generous fairways at this course often make stray tee shots more manageable, and the large, inviting greens help keep the course fun for the high handicapper. Forced carries to many of the greens over either penalty areas or bunkers create a test that makes each round more enjoyable than the last. With an open feeling created by the property-wide housing setbacks, the course seems almost like a core golf course. The PGA National Estate course is located five miles west of the main resort.
