Bass River Golf Course

Dunedin Golf Club sits in the small Gulf Coast city of Dunedin, Florida, roughly 25 miles northwest of Tampa, on a rolling parkland layout that Donald Ross designed in 1926, a course he reportedly called his masterpiece. The routing gained national stature quickly: it served as PGA National Golf Club beginning in 1945 and hosted the inaugural PGA Merchandise Show in 1954, establishing Dunedin as an early center of the American golf industry. The course is now owned and operated by the City of Dunedin. In 2025, architect Kris Spence completed a $6 million restoration returning the layout to Ross's original design intent. The restored course plays to a par 72 at approximately 6,500 yards. Public access, mid-range pricing ($$), and placement on the Florida Historic Golf Trail make it a documented stop for golfers tracing the state's architectural heritage.
