The Villages - Executive Golf Trail (Amberwood)

The Villages - Executive Golf Trail (Amberwood) is a 9-hole par-28 course in The Villages, Florida, built in 2003 to reflect the character of old-growth central Florida. Majestic oaks line the fairways, and yardage ranges from 1,163 to 1,710 yards depending on tee selection. The course plays longer than a typical executive layout on several holes, where long irons or fairway woods may be needed to reach greens in regulation. The sixth hole is a par 4 running alongside a wetland nature preserve, with a fairway bunker on the left and a demanding second shot required to get on in two. The closing three holes each require a tee shot that carries over water, and the sloped greens demand accurate putting to protect your scorecard coming home. Amberwood is a consistent favorite among Villages residents.
