How many golf courses are within 45 miles of Fort Lauderdale?
BogeyMap publishes 39 public, resort and semi-private golf courses within 45 miles of downtown Fort Lauderdale, and 39 of them carry a LooperScore. The radius is measured in a straight line, so it can include courses across a state line. Private clubs are not counted.
Can you play private golf courses near Fort Lauderdale as a guest?
Usually only with a member. Most private clubs near Fort Lauderdale require a member to sponsor or join you. Some allow limited non-member play through a hotel stay, a stay-and-play package or off-season tee times. BogeyMap Pro lists those documented paths, and the club always has the final say.
How are golf courses near Fort Lauderdale ranked?
By LooperScore, BogeyMap's own 0-100 rating. It combines course quality signals, verified golfer ratings and editorial review of each Fort Lauderdale-area course. We never republish another publication's rankings, and a course shows a score only once the supporting evidence exists, so some courses are listed without one.
