Continental Country Club

Overview: Continental Country Club is an oak-lined golf community in Wildwood, between Leesburg and Wildwood. The course is presented as a championship 18-hole layout in a natural Florida setting, with mature trees shaping the parkland character.

History: Continental opened in 1972 and was the first golf course designed by Ron Garl, according to the club’s official history. It grew alongside an adult retirement community and remains a semi-private facility that also welcomes public play.

Did You Know? Continental’s identity is tied to its location beneath a canopy of large oaks. The club’s own description treats those trees as part of the course’s defining landscape, rather than simply background planting around the fairways.
