Dopslaff made his mark at Arrowhead by creating the best environment possible for golfers and his staff -- providing warm, friendly service, a challenging course, and creative programs. “My role at the club is to ensure a quality experience for our patrons,” he explains. “We do this by retaining motivated staff and exceeding our customer’s expectations in all areas.” Dopslaff credits the course’s recent accomplishments, receiving the Naples Daily News “Star Award” for ‘Naples Favorite Places To Play’ in 2004 and ‘Best Public Golf Course’ in 2005, to each staff member at the club.

According to Coral Hospitality’s CEO Lee Weeks, “Mike is a perfect example of what Coral looks for in its leadership team. He rolls up his sleeves and creates an environment at Arrowhead that rivals some of the larger, private clubs. He sets the bar high for his team and builds trust and enthusiasm in the local golf community. Mike’s commitment to quality and consistent reliability has changed the direction at Arrowhead and we are proud to honor him with this recognition.”

Dopslaff is quite an accomplished player, and has been honored four times as the “Player of the Year” by the Southwestern Chapter of the South Florida PGA.

Lewis, the club features eighteen pristine holes that weave among sixteen lakes.
