Origins Golf Course

FL, United States

Origins Golf Course is a 10-hole par 3 course designed by Davis Love III, located at Watersound Club in Inlet Beach, Florida. The course spans approximately 1,800 yards and was developed with a "short course" concept emphasizing accessibility and enjoyment for families, beginners, and casual golfers. The design features a non-penal layout that appeals to novices while maintaining regulation-length holes and greens that provide sufficient challenge and strategy for experienced players. This approach reflects the Scottish origins of golf, where six, nine, and twelve-hole courses were historically common. The course is situated within a coastal sanctuary setting featuring natural pine forests and wetlands. It successfully balances approachability with playability, making golf more fun and attractive to all skill levels. Members of Watersound Club enjoy complimentary access to Origins Golf Course, which complements the club's other championship courses designed by Tom Fazio and Greg Norman.
