Streamsong Resort · Streamsong Resort press kit
Designed by Coore & Crenshaw (2023)
$50–$75
Booking via Direct
The Chain at Streamsong is the resort's 19-hole short loop, a Coore and Crenshaw design opened in 2023 on the same reclaimed phosphate mining land that produced the Red and Blue. You play 12 holes at roughly 2,400 yards and a par of 46, mixing short par 3s with mid-length par 4s built for late afternoon rounds, social golf, and the kind of round that does not require a warm-up or a strategy session.
What to expect
No tee times. Walking only. Groups finish in roughly 90 minutes, often less, and the no-tee-time format means the pace is set by the players. The greens are interesting without being punitive, and the same sand ridges and native grasses that frame the championship courses run through here too. Match play moves quickly and decisively. A skins game with four players resolves in under two hours. Expect the course to fit between rounds, between meals, or between the main round and dinner; it is built for the gap in the day rather than the day itself.

Is it worth the green fee?
Fees run roughly $50 to $75 as an add-on to a full round at one of the three 18-hole courses. For a Coore and Crenshaw design on terrain this distinctive, that is one of the better values in Florida golf. This is not a practice facility or a warm-up loop. It is serious architecture compressed into a format that prioritises enjoyment over endurance.
Booking and trip fit
No bookings required, just turn up. Pair The Chain with Streamsong Red, Streamsong Blue, and Streamsong Black across a multi-day stay, or use it as the second loop on a long day at the resort. Book direct through the resort.
The bottom line
Nineteen holes, no tee times, real architecture. The afternoon course Streamsong needed.
