Seasonal Intern

By Mountain Lake Corporation, 9 hours ago - lake wales, Alabama

SUMMARY Mountain Lake is a historic gated community in Lake Wales, approximately 55 miles from Orlando, Florida. Founded in 1916, Mountain Lake was developed with the help of Frederick Olmstead III, and noted golf course architect Seth Raynor. The golf course is often ranked in the top 100 courses in the country. Mountain Lake built the "Colony House" in 1916, which is a seasonal hotel with approximately 32 rooms, and is open for three meals a day from October 1 to May 1. The course has Tif-Eagle bermudagrass greens, Trinity zoysiagrass tees, and Tifway 419 bermudagrass fairways and rough. The Club has retained golf course architect, Tyler Rae, to develop an enhancement plan for the course. This plan has been approved by the Board and will take place starting April 2026. The Club has also retained NMP Golf Construction to perform the work. The work will include the rebuilding of all 18 golf course greens, plus a practice putting green. Furthermore, bunkers will be relocated and reconstructed. Per Tyler’s Plan, golf holes will mainly stay the same, but many of the greens and bunkers will be reshaped/designed back to the original Seth Raynor design, backed by Tyler Rae’s vision. Vintage aerials have been acquired by Tyler and his team, and that plan is mostly based on those pictures.
