Links of Lake Bernadette
About
The Links of Lake Bernadette enjoys verdant landscaping and a rolling terrain that are perfectly complemented by mature and towering pines. At 6,400 yards, the golf course is seemingly short but it feels like it plays much longer due to frequent doglegs that can be found throughout. Six of the par 4s play over 400 yards and a few par 3s measure over 200 yards, which also helps the course feel longer. Water hazards and bunkers come into play but they are balanced by large greens and wide fairways that make for easier approaches. Although beginners won't feel out of place and there are four different sets of tees, the golf course boasts several tricky holes that will challenge even the best players. One of these, the 163-yard 13th, was once called the best par 3 in Tampa Bay.

Hot n Dry at Bernadette
I like the course, it’s a great set up and always throws a challenge at you.
The weather has not been nice though. Tee boxes and some fairways are suffering from the lack of rain. Hopefully the summer rains fix it.
Let down
Poor course conditions. Felt like I was playing on a 4x4 track. Greens were horrible.
Putting green surface in bad shape
The putting greens were in very bad shape on the front 9. I did not play rhe back 9 due to a group of 3 decided to start theor round on the back 9 instead of the front.
Worst i have ever seen
Nothing was in good shape at all. Greens were absolutely awful and worse I have ever played.
Greens are terrible
This course needs a big change. Not well maintainace. The greens were so bad, many dead spots... we coulnt putt, had to pick up the ball and go.
Dont recommend.
Need help
Tee boxes,greens need a lot of work...nothing worse than playing golf and the greens are unplayable...please fix the greens and i will come back with guests..but not at this time.
So much potential
Staff are always really nice. The layout it fun. I’ve been playing here 2-4 times a year for the past 5-7 years and it seems like the groundskeepers just can’t get things going. Normally always wet, greens are normally very slow, and the bunkers are normally not well kept. It’s the closest one to my house so I’d love for it to thrive. Also no driving range .
course
greens are unusable inputtable we were told repairs are on the way looking forward to it
greens are in poor shape
good for a recreational player
Not for people who are looking for upper end courses.
Terrible greens
Course should be closed for play as the greens are almost non existent!
Fun but unplayable Greens
The worst part was I left my $300 Oakley Sunglasses on my cart. I left the grounds and came right back. The cart was washed and put away but NO sunglasses…so a very expensive round.
It was a fun golf course and I would play it again if I could get the same “Hot Deal” otherwise not worth it.
Oh, the greens
As per usual for this point in the season, the greens are not in great shape. Many have bare patches, the 5th having very little grass. I'm sure they'll come back when it starts to rain. But be aware.
