The Community
For buyers relocating from out of state, the name "Parkland Golf and Country Club" may be new. But for anyone who has lived in South Florida, it carries immediate weight. PGCC is not simply a gated community — it is the benchmark against which every other Parkland address is measured.
Parkland has many beautiful gated communities — Heron Bay, Parkland Bay, Watercrest, Cascata. Each offers a quality lifestyle. But only one has a private golf course. Only one has a 43,000 sq ft sports club with private dining. Only one is built around a Greg Norman championship course. That community is PGCC — and 10292 Emerson St sits inside it.

18 Holes. Greg Norman. 790 Acres.
The centerpiece of PGCC is an 18-hole, par-72 championship golf course designed by Greg Norman — one of the most celebrated course architects in the world. Winding through 790 gated acres of lakes, mature trees, and manicured fairways, the course offers a private club experience that is simply unavailable anywhere else in Parkland. Membership tiers accommodate both avid golfers and social members.
10 Courts. 6 Pickleball. Every Level Welcome.
PGCC's racquet sports program is among the most comprehensive in South Florida. The facility features nine Har-Tru® clay courts and one hard court, plus six dedicated pickleball courts designed for players of all skill levels. Daily private, semi-private, and group clinics are available for juniors, men, and women. Round robins, themed events, competitive singles leagues, and friendly doubles leagues run year-round — making the courts one of the most active social hubs in the community.


One Family Pool. One Adults-Only Pool. Two Splash Pads.
PGCC's aquatic complex features two resort-style pools — one dedicated family pool and one adults-only pool — along with two interactive splash pads for children. Whether it's a morning lap swim, an afternoon with the kids at the splash pad, or a relaxed evening by the adults-only pool, the aquatic facilities are the beating heart of the community's social life. The surrounding deck and outdoor spaces make every day feel like a resort stay.
