Washington County Board of County Commissioners Approves Development Order for Sandy Site Featuring Tom Doak Golf Course
Chicago, IL (November 1, 2024) – Dream Golf announced today that that it has applied for and received a Development Order from Washington County, Florida. The project – Old Shores – is being developed by Michael and Chris Keiser and features a new public golf course designed by renowned golf architect Tom Doak.
Old Shores will join other Keiser family-owned-and-operated destinations Bandon Dunes Golf Resort on the Oregon coast; Sand Valley Resort in the Central Sands of Wisconsin; Rodeo Dunes, under construction in Colorado; and Wild Spring Dunes, a recently announced golf resort and community in pre-construction in Texas.
“This land just makes you want to get to the next bend or over the next hill,” says developer Michael Keiser. “There is so much variety – it’s hard to believe you could experience so many environments in one place. Every time I visit, I discover a side I had never seen before. This is an amazing and unexpected site.”
The Washington County Development Order is the first step in bringing Dream Golf to the Florida Panhandle.
“We are grateful for the reception we received from Washington County, and we are eager to continuing the process of presenting our plans for this extraordinary property,” Keiser says. “I’ve walked the routing with Tom Doak numerous times, and I know this will be world-class.”
The Old Shores site is located approximately 30 miles north of the Panama City airport and is easily accessible from the resort communities of the 30A corridor.
No construction timetable has been established.
