Always a pleasure to play Flamingo. We were able to play in 3 1/2 hours. No one in front of us and no one behind. The spacing is great.

Great Course., poor pace oversight

New golf group appeared on 10th hole slowing play considerably. No ranger to intervene. New group began to leave throughout second nine leaving a single golfer playing between two foursomes Terrible experience.

Very enjoyable course

We went expecting a four to four and a half hour round. We had a 12:30 tee time and played front in 1:45., sometimes hitting a second ball. Got to tenth tee and suddenly a twosome was in front of us. They were definitely not on the front nine….shouldn’t have happened and they didn’t let us through although we were right on top of them……Marshall’s are useless. Starters are very good.

Back at Lely Flamingo

Played again after a year hiatus, decided to bite the bullet on the high cost for a slightly less than high end course .
However, course was in great condition & pace of play very good. Glad we chose to play there & probably will return.

Very Challenging

Great Course, we are staying in Marco so close by compared to some of the other courses, Our friends own in here and said Flamingo was the more challenging of the 2 courses and she was right.. there were many sand traps ,water on holes, elevated greens, and naarrow fairways on some holes. The par 3's were all tough and had water. We started around 2:30 and got done in 4 hours. The practice facility was nice, had a chipping and putting area, they use mats right now on tHursdays and Sundays, otherwise on grass. Overall a good course, you cannot make tee times until 2 days before, usually they have times in the afternoon from 2:20 on and you should get done in time,.

New sod

First time playing Flamingo since the re-sod. Course is in good shape including the greens!
Some around the collar maintenance needs to be done and the bunkers need to settle in. Overall a much better value than before.
Some Lely members think they own the place-LOL
But staff very good.

great course

Course was in excellent condition. The bunkers had new white sand: perfect. A bit on the pricey side, but immaculate fairways and greens. Course is challenging, but on the easy side.

Played as single. Paired with member and son who quit halfway. Fortunately was able to play through 3 groups on back. Last 9 took only 90 minutes, would have been miserable otherwise.
