Long Thanh Golf Club – Lake Course
Set against the gently undulating hills of Dong Nai Province, Long Thanh Golf Club’s Lake Course offers a captivating blend of natural beauty, strategic course design, and warm Vietnamese hospitality. Located just 40 minutes from bustling Ho Chi Minh City, the club is a serene golfing sanctuary that draws both international visitors and local players seeking a world-class experience away from the city’s pace.
Established in 2005 and designed by the renowned Golf Plan (USA), Long Thanh Golf Club has quickly risen to prominence as one of Vietnam’s premier golf destinations. The Lake Course, one of its two signature 18-hole layouts, is celebrated for its water-laced fairways, generous landing areas, and breathtaking tropical landscape. As part of a 36-hole facility that continues to evolve with exceptional maintenance and service standards, the Lake Course stands as a favorite among both competitive players and casual golf tourists in southern Vietnam.
Course Layout & Design
Nestled in the lush, rolling countryside of Dong Nai province, just 40 minutes from Ho Chi Minh City, Long Thanh Golf Club is home to two magnificent 18-hole courses: the Hill Course and the Lake Course. The Lake Course is a true favorite among golfers for its wide fairways, scenic lakefront holes, and forgiving yet strategic design, making it accessible to beginners while still offering a challenge to seasoned players.
Designed by Golf Plan (USA), the course takes full advantage of the natural terrain with water hazards that come into play on many holes. The layout is both aesthetic and tactical — blending elevation changes, island greens, and picturesque lakes to create a visually stunning and engaging round of golf.
Signature holes include:
-
Hole 3 – A challenging par-4 with water flanking the right side from tee to green.

Hole 13 – A memorable par-3 over water with a narrow green and bunkers waiting.
