Streamsong

Streamsong Resort is a golf and spa resort developed by The Mosaic Company in Bowling Green, Florida on a 16,000 acre property[1] near Fort Meade, Florida.[2][3] The resort includes a 216-room hotel[4] and two golf courses built on the site of a former phosphate strip mine.[4] Fishing on various lakes and clay-shooting are also offered.[4]
