What's New

Mountain Lake's historic Seth Raynor-designed golf course wrapped up the construction phase of its multi-million-dollar restoration on September 17, 2026 and remains slated to reopen in early November 2026; as of November 2, 2026 no public reopening announcement had been made, so interested buyers should confirm with the club before planning a round. Guided by Raynor's original sketches, the project rebuilt all 18 greens with TifEagle Bermuda, recreated the original punchbowl green at the 3rd hole, returned the 6th green to its original spot, and replaced the 9th green's pond with a dramatic beach bunker. The enclave also drew statewide attention in mid-2026 when Florida's governor was reported to have placed an offer on a home here; the governor declined to confirm the report, and as of November 2026 there is no confirmed record of a completed sale.
