The Golf Comparison — This Is the Deciding Factor
If golf is your primary reason for choosing a community, Hollybrook wins. Two courses means more tee time availability, more variety in your daily round, and a PGA championship-caliber layout that serious golfers will find genuinely challenging. Wynmoor's executive course is shorter and more casual — designed for social golfers who want a morning round without a 4-hour commitment. Both courses are included in the HOA with no additional membership fee.
Hollybrook's 14 tennis courts are also a significant advantage for racquet sport players — more than any other Broward 55+ community. If golf and tennis are both important to your daily routine, Hollybrook offers a racquet-and-club combination that Wynmoor can match in quality but not in quantity.
The Community Scale Difference
Wynmoor is nearly three times the size of Hollybrook (5,260 vs 1,902). That scale matters in three ways: social programming (Wynmoor can support more clubs, classes, and organized activities because the population base is larger), resale liquidity (more buyers looking at Wynmoor at any given time means faster sales), and governance complexity (more buildings means more board interactions, but also more distributed risk).
Hollybrook's smaller size means a more intimate community character — you'll know your neighbors, the staff will know your name, and the clubhouse feels like your local rather than a resort. For buyers who find mega-communities overwhelming, Hollybrook's 1,902-unit scale is a feature.
The Cost Comparison
Hollybrook's HOA ($350–$456) runs $50–$100/month lower than Wynmoor's ($400–$500). On a $200K purchase, Hollybrook's annual carry is approximately $7,176–$8,448 vs Wynmoor's $7,776–$8,976. Over 10 years, Hollybrook saves $6,000–$10,000 in HOA alone. However, Hollybrook's taller buildings (up to 6 stories) face more complex SB 4-D requirements than Wynmoor's 3–4 story buildings, which could narrow or reverse the HOA gap if structural reserve requirements are higher.
The Verdict
Choose Hollybrook if: golf is your primary daily activity and you want a championship-quality course, tennis is important to you (14 courts vs fewer), you prefer a smaller, more intimate community (1,902 vs 5,260), or you want the lowest HOA among Broward's golf communities.
Choose Wynmoor if: you want the largest social programming selection in any Broward 55+ community, you value the structural confidence of passing the 40-year inspection, the stricter buyer qualification (700+ credit, 30% down) gives you confidence in neighbor quality, or you prefer the 50,000 sq ft clubhouse and Café on the Green dining experience.
The golfer's shortcut: play both courses. Wynmoor's executive course is a pleasant morning round for social golfers. Hollybrook's championship course is a genuine test for skilled players. Your scorecard will tell you which community fits your game.
