Talk to a Specialist →Plantation Golf and Country Club is Venice’s largest age-targeted golf community — 2,600 homes built between 1982 and 2014. Two 18-hole championship courses. Priced from the $300s — among the most affordable golf-included entry points in the Sarasota area. The community has a country club with dining, tennis, pickleball, and resort pool.
At 2,600 homes and 32 years of build history, Plantation is well established with significant resale inventory. The golf is genuinely good — Bob von Hagge-designed courses. The price range is wide: affordable condos at the entry vs premium single-family golf-course-front homes in the upper range.
Venice’s Plantation Golf gives buyers golf on a Von Hagge course at prices significantly below Lakewood Ranch’s golf communities. For buyers who specifically want golf-included at the most affordable price in the Sarasota area, Plantation is the Venice answer. The tradeoff vs Lakewood Ranch: older construction, Venice’s smaller city infrastructure vs LWR’s self-contained master plan.
