The Oaks Club

Welcome to The Oaks Club

The Oaks Club is a gracious private golf community in Osprey, just south of Sarasota along Little Sarasota Bay. Shaded by grand live oaks and native hammocks, it’s known as one of the area’s most established member-owned clubs. Two 18-hole championship courses, the Eagle and the Heron, wind through wetlands, oak hammocks and a series of lakes fed by South Creek, so every round feels set in nature. The Eagle Course, originally designed by Willard Byrd, was thoughtfully renovated in 2015. A full practice facility, caddie service and a classic clubhouse round out a golf experience members return to for generations. Homes range from custom estates along the fairways to bayside residences with water views and boating access, all set along quiet, tree-lined streets.

Life at The Oaks moves at an easy coastal rhythm. Mornings might start with a round on the Eagle or a walk beneath the oak canopy. Afternoons can be spent on the courts, at the pool, or out on Little Sarasota Bay, and evenings bring dinner and gatherings at the club with friends and neighbors. Just beyond the gates, the area’s natural beauty is close at hand, with Historic Spanish Point, Oscar Scherer State Park and the beaches of Casey Key and Nokomis only minutes away. The shops and dining of Sarasota and Venice are an easy drive north or south.
