Deep Creek Golf Club

Overview: Mark McCumber’s Deep Creek Golf Club offers an 18-hole Punta Gorda layout surrounded by native Florida wildlife, waterways, and natural vegetation. The daily-play course is par 70 and is listed at about 6,045 yards from its longest tees.

History: The course opened in 1985 and has continued as a semi-private club that welcomes public daily play. Its original McCumber design remains the central story, with bunkers and meandering waterways making management more important than the par-70 number suggests.

Did You Know? Deep Creek is only a short distance from I-75, yet the official description emphasizes native landscape and wildlife. That contrast is part of the course’s local character.
