Eaglebrooke is a gated, single-family golf community in south Lakeland in Polk County, Florida, ZIP 33813, built around the Club at Eaglebrooke (multiple Lakeland real estate community guides, 2026). It is an established community, not a new base plat, with a staffed and gated entrance and more than 600 homes per local community guides; confirm the exact count and current gate arrangement.
The centerpiece is the Club at Eaglebrooke, an 18-hole championship golf course designed by the noted Florida architect Ron Garl that opened in 1996, a par-72 layout that course guides describe as a links-style design with notable elevation change for the region (Club at Eaglebrooke and Polk County golf course listings, 2026). The club also offers a restaurant, a pool, and tennis per community guides; confirm current amenities and membership terms with the club.
Because this is a real community with a wide range of homes and lots, the money is made or lost on the specific street, lot, and home, not on the address alone. The drivers are the home condition and size, the lot, the HOA dues, the separate Golden Lakes CDD assessment that funds community infrastructure, and the golf or club membership structure, all of which should be read from the listing and the current HOA, CDD, and club documents.
The pitch is a gated golf lifestyle in an established south Lakeland setting that is convenient to both the Tampa Bay area and Orlando. The work is the diligence: confirm the HOA dues and what they cover, the CDD assessment on the tax bill, and the club or golf membership terms before you fall for the fairway view.
