Shingle Creek Golf Club, a remarkable new Orlando golf course, takes its name from the creek, which traverses the property. Early pioneers who first settled Central Florida in the 1800s were drawn by the splendor of this pristine creek.

They used the creek for fishing, trapping and logging cypress trees, which were floated to a nearby mill then eventually made into shingles for their homes, thus the name Shingle Creek. Today we have discovered that Shingle Creek is indeed, the natural headwaters of the Florida Everglades, which is located
approximately 140 miles south of our property. Harman's design objective for Shingle Creek Golf Club was to make the course play fair while keeping it a unique and extraordinary test of golf. Assisting this effort are five sets of tees, which enables players to select their own degree of difficulty.
