The Dunes Golf Club at Seville

Overview: The Dunes Golf Club at Seville was a historic 18-hole course in Weeki Wachee, Florida, not the similarly named Sanibel club. Golfify records a Mark McCumber design, a 1988 opening and a 7,139-yard par-72 back-tee scorecard. Sports Illustrated reports that the course closed in 2013, so this profile describes a former course rather than an active tee-time destination.

History: The Seville course was built on a site associated with former bombardier training and later struggled with maintenance and revenue. Sports Illustrated’s 2020 account records the closure in 2013. The closing date is important because some directory pages still present the course as open.

Did You Know? The course’s sandy character was not simply a branding choice. The reported wartime land use left large sand pits and dunes across the property, which were played as waste areas.
