Southwood Golf Club in Tallahassee, Florida, is a thoughtfully designed Semi-Private course known for its scenic layout, playability, and community-centered atmosphere. Built by the St. Joe Company in 2002. The 277 acre, 18 hole par 72 course was designed by PGA Tour legend Fred Couples and the renowned golf architect Gene Bates. The course features rolling fairways lined with mature pines, strategically placed bunkers, and water hazards that come into play on several signature holes, offering a balanced challenge for golfers of all skill levels. The greens are well-maintained with subtle undulations that reward precision without overwhelming casual players. We are proud partners with our local First Tee Chapter and are excited to host them year round for programming and events. Soon, First Tee will be a neighbor with their own indoor programming facilicty and event space on the property!
Beyond the course itself, Southwood is integrated into a vibrant residential community, featuring over 2500 homes and over 1000 acres of parks and green spaces giving it a welcoming and relaxed feel. The clubhouse offers a comfortable gathering space with dining options making it a popular spot for both golfers and locals. With its combination of natural beauty, accessible design, and consistent conditions, Southwood Golf Club stands out as one of Tallahassee’s premier public golf destinations. Currently we are an upscale semi-private daily fee course with over 500 dues paying members
We are privately owned by Chuck and Katy Urban since January 1, 2026.
