Orchid Island Golf Club

Orchid Island, a cozy luxury development with home lots and villas stretched along a span of Atlantic Ocean beaches on a barrier island north of Vero Beach, features a 1990 Arnold Palmer design that winds through the community. This is Palmer at his most PGA Tour-level exacting, setting up hole after hole that dogleg around ponds and rock-wall lined lagoons, with 12 greens requiring full carries over water or small putting surfaces positioned directly against the lakes with no room to miss including the 18th with a version of the approach at the 18th at Bay Hill, ranked six spots ahead at No. 36. Orchid Island, which shares a property line with Windsor Club, underwent a greens and bunker renovation in 2023.
