South Course at Big Cypress Golf & Country Club
About
Big Cypress Golf Club is part of a gated golf retirement community called Cypress Lakes. Conveniently located between Orlando and Tampa, the club offers two golf courses, the North and the South. The South Course is a championship layout that is more challenging than the executive-length North Course. Both courses are characterized by the abundance of water and swaying palms, offering the best of Florida golf. The South Course plays a long 6,680 yards from the back tees. The course presents a more demanding test than the North, appealing to more advanced players. Florida Golfer and Senior Golfer have recognized its challenging layout for its excellent conditions and design. Maintenance is a top priority at Big Cypress; on both courses the well manicured fairways and greens are consistently in good shape.

One of the BEST
Great conditions, especially compared to other area courses. Green were excellent and fast. This is one of my favorite places to play. Could play ball down and a very good track. Highly recommended. Play mid-afternoon and no one else on course had the place to ourselves. Will return as had been a few years for me. May look to move there.
Fun course and good value
Course was in good shape, especially the greens. Good layout. Would play again.
Grass grest
Tees, fairways and especially greens were green with grass. Greens were very smooth and fast.
No patches of ingrowth grasses. Great all around
Hidden Gem
I had never heard of Big Cypress until I noticed it on GolfNow. I live in Tampa so it was a 50 minute drive to the course but well worth it. The greens and fairways were in fantastic condition. The course is a good test, especially if you have never played it before. Several of the holes I will play differently next time.
Old Hoosiers
Staff first class ! Start was extremely nice and helpful. My wife and I really enjoyed are round course was great
Always in great shape.
Greens here never disappoint. Faster than most courses and they always run true. Barely any rain for a month or so but the course is still in great shape. Fairways and tees are a little dry but thats to be expected. Greens were great as usual.
Staff has always been courteous and always organized. They usually get you out ahead of schedule and the pace is nice.
The driving range is nice and well taken care of.
We will be playing both North and South courses on the same day this weekend for a friendly little shootout with my friends. I have taken many of my guys here to check out the South course and they all have been impressed.
Great job guys.
You Won’t Regret This One
Great course that I would definitely recommend and play again. Nice course layout. Course is in good shape in all areas. Friendly people. The grill food and prices were great. Good value. If they get a little rain, this course would be amazing! Well worth the trip.
Great Value
This course was tough but fair. Great value for the money. Pace of play wasn’t great but better than Huntington Hills. Great layout and good condition.
Excellent course, well maintained and great value
The course was well maintained and the employees were very helpful and courteous. I would recommend it for mid level players. It may not be long enough for big hitters. We had a great time.
Great layout, good conditions, fantastic greens
Title says it all...Great layout, good conditions, fantastic greens. This course is one of the best values in the area. I would absolutely play it again and then again and again.
First time playing the South Course. This course is in pristine shape, similar to Valspar course. As I stated previously, after playing the North Course, courses like Links of Lake Bernedette, Scotland Yards and Brooksville Golf Courses should get advice from Big Cypress management on how to maintain a course.
Neighborhood is manufactured homes or trailers
Ok course. Great restaurant and club house many locals with carts.
Lovely venue
Very good course. Great greens. Reasonably priced especially when compared to other courses. Staff fine, not super friendly but efficient.
Only complaint was they never told us about a Juniors competition going out before us. It was for 8 to 10years olds on the first 9. We caught up with them on the third and the next 6 holes took over 2 hours. Over 3 hours for the first 9 is totally unacceptable. Pace of play on back 9 was perfect
