Laurel Oak Country Club is a private, member-owned club located in Sarasota, Florida. Its outstanding facilities include two championship golf courses crafted by Gary Player. The West course was redesigned by Rees Jones, the famed "U.S. Open Doctor", in 2005. The club's other amenities include 12 Har Tru tennis courts, a full-size heated swimming pool and a beautiful 45,000 square foot clubhouse. The club is nestled on over 800 peaceful acres near downtown Sarasota with its renowned arts and cultural district, and within easy reach of the finest beaches in Florida. Siesta Key Beach was named "the Best Beach in America". The club is sited in a magnificent gated residential community of over 400 single family homes. However, because the club enjoys such a widespread excellent reputation, many of our members reside outside the community.
