Recognized by Links Magazine as “One of the Best Places to Live in Florida,” Willoughby Golf Club has gained national acclaim with avid golfers and casual players alike. Located in Stuart along Florida’s Treasure Coast, this private golf club prides itself on its golf experience, first-class amenities, exceptional service, and a fun-filled lifestyle. Now, as one of the few golf clubs in the area to have non-resident Memberships available, many are intrigued by what’s behind the gates of this Stuart, Florida Golf Club. Let’s take a closer look.

18 Holes of Scenic Championship Golf
When designing the golf course for Willoughby, legendary golfer Arthur Hills desired to integrate the gorgeous natural beauty that makes this golf club distinctive. The result was a scenic design that engages both the body and the mind. Towering trees, tropical palms, and natural wetlands honor the site’s distinctive character, while four sets of tees playing between 5,014 and 6,701 yards ensure players of all skill levels are suitably challenged. Traditionally challenging obstacles of lakes are combined with 55 strategically placed bunkers, keeping even the most avid player on their toes.

PGA-Level Instruction to Hone Your Skills
From single-digit handicappers to junior proteges, Willoughby’s impressive golf practice facilities help Members of all ages and skill levels perfect their game. A pro-level driving range, two practice putting greens, and a chipping practice area provide a variety of practice areas. Led by PGA Professional Gerry Knebels, a full team of certified golf teaching professionals holds lessons, clinics, and an endless lineup of events for Members to improve their skills. Members can then take their game to the next level by engaging in fan-favorite tournaments, including the Willoughby Cup, Couples Classic, Husband-and-Wife Championship, Member-Guest Days, and more.

Resort-Style Fun Beyond the Greens
Championship golf, however, is not the only amenity Members at Willoughby Golf Club enjoy. The recently renovated 25,000-square-foot Clubhouse is the social centerpiece of the community, with ample opportunities to socialize with friends or relax and enjoy a life well lived. The Clubhouse includes three distinct dining venues, a resort-style pool, a state-of-the-art fitness center, and numerous social settings. Willoughby’s racquet program is also top-notch, with five Har-Tru tennis courts and pickleball courts all lighted, allowing for tournaments, exhibitions, and lessons to happen day or night. A monthly event calendar ensures Members never get bored, with themed dinners, live entertainment, wine tastings, and more creating a lively and close-knit community.

Designed for those who live in the local Treasure Coast area, non-resident Golf Members allow full-family privileges to the golf course and practice range, paying cart or trail fees only.
