In our newly renovated 45,000 square foot clubhouse, we present casual dining in the Thirsty Pelican Bar & Grill Room or you may enjoy the Terrace overlooking expansive views of Spring Creek and the finishing hole of Gator 18. These are perfect havens to wind down and enjoy lunch after a round of golf or to visit with friends in the evening over cocktails and dinner, at sunset the view is breathtaking.

For enjoying a quiet dinner with family and friends or dancing on select evenings, special events, romantic memories and holidays, we offer a beautiful setting in our newly redecorated Main Dining Rooms. Our executive Chef offers a wide variety of culinary treats featuring his signature seafood dishes and other outstanding delectable delights. Our members enjoy having two Private Dining Rooms available to host weddings, corporate events, private wine dinners or social parties.
