History

Lost City Golf Club traces its roots back to 1958, when developers Paul Kintz and Nathan Hunt began transforming an 828-acre cattle farm into what is now the City of Atlantis. By combining two adjacent parcels, they laid the foundation for a golf-centered community.

In the early 1960s, the first phase of development introduced an inn, clubhouse, and 18 holes of golf—now known as the North and South nines. The East nine followed soon after, completing the original 27-hole course. The property operated as Atlantis Country Club and Inn, a semi-public facility offering annual memberships to local residents.

During the 1970s, members organized to convert the club to private ownership. With support from the Kintz family, Atlantis Golf Club, Inc. was formed. In 1971, members purchased the course and clubhouse, established a Board of Directors, and elected B. Franklin Copp as the first President.

In 2016, the club adopted a new name—Lost City Golf Club—honoring its past while continuing its commitment to excellence in the heart of Atlantis, Florida.
