There are, in total, three golf courses within the overall plan of Quinta do Lago - namely Quinta do Lago North & South, and San Lorenzo.

The two Quinta do Lago courses form the golfing options of the playing members of the Club. Both courses are characterised as parkland courses wending their way through the Mediterranean pines that line the fairways, and offering tantalising views of the large houses and plots that make up the resort.

The South course, designed by William Mitchell, is the championship course and has been host to the Portuguese Open on seven different occasions. The first nine holes wind through parkland, and the back nine loops around the lake from which the resort gets its name.

The North course, nine holes designed by William Mitchell and nine holes designed by Rocky Roquemore. though not so famous as its southerly neighbour, is equally enjoyed by members.

The third course, San Lorenzo, is situated on the coast in the South Eastern most part of Quinta do Lago and does not form part of the golfing rights of CGQL members.

There is another course, associated with the Quinta do Lago complex which opened in October 2008 called Laranjal. This course is situated approximately 2 km east of Quinta do lago in the Ludo valley.
