Description

Newly designed Lake Okahumpka re-opened with 18 holes June 2025.

Lake Okahumpka park's OG 9~hole (single tee/single pin) layout was upgraded to an 18~hole dual tee/dual pin layout, going from 9 holes with no options, to 18~holes with 72 options. Nearly all of the former tee and pin locations were integrated into the new design, but not necessarily in the same configuration. (Old #3 is gone)
The par 59 course now begins in the middle of the park, across from the covered picnic tables, so that players can visit their vehicles after the new front 8 loop for more water or discs.

The White tee to Red layout (short/short) was designed specifically for the Villages Chain Gang disc golf club. The other configurations are more about finesse than power. Most of the new 9 was cut through saw palmettos, oaks and a few magnolias. The front 8 loop is tightly wooded. The back 10 is more open & grassy, while remaining well shaded.

All paved surfaces and beyond are Out of Bounds, as well as over any fences. Minimal water in play.

Pros:
Each hole now has 4 playing options.
36 brand new tee pads and baskets.
Restrooms fairly close to hole #01.
Most fairways are well shaded.
Plenty of directional signs for easier navigation.
Good course flow.
A player can learn and grow their game on the same course, due to the 4 levels of play.
Short to short features numerous ACE~runs. (Perfect for older players and “51” club)
Shops and restaurants nearby.
All tee & pin positions are 'permanent'. So, the baskets do not get shuffled around.
4 different course records.


Cons:
Still very new. (Ribbon cutting was 06-15-25) Some fairways still have palmetto roots that can make for some tricky footing. Spotters are recommended on much of the front 8 loop, especially #07 & 08.
The course is 100% playable, but still requires OB & Caution signage, a rules sign and designating the color of each tee pad. (As of 06-27-25)
Roughly 20 parking spots near the paved trail into the woods toward #01 tee. But very little shade for the cars unless people park under the trees near the former hole #1. (Currently #11)
Long walk from #08 to #09 (due to a forced redesign)
Holes #07 & 08 have a few too many trees.
Some low areas can hold water in the rainy season.

Directions

From I-75; exit 329 (Wildwood). Go east on Hwy 44 for 6 miles to Lake Okahumpka Park on the right. 1st tee follow path behind signage near the bathrooms.
