Saddlebrook Resort - Oak/Cypress

Played with the covid-19 precautions in place. The course was in great shape with fast greens per usual. Pace of play was slower than normal but given covid-19 it is better than most places. Will definitely play again.

Course is in great condition. Our three some finished in less than 4 hours.

Enjoyable round. Tee times are currently spread out due to coronavirus, so pace of play was quick. Greens are in great shape, but difficult - lots of undulations. A few tee boxes are rough and bare, otherwise the course is in excellent condition.

Had a 12:18 tee time but was able to go off about 20 minutes early

Pace was great 3 and a half hours we were a twosome.

Though because of covid all water stations were closed

So we played 18 with no water at all .

Wish I could say the same for my game but that’s another story.

Greens were in great shape but a little slow

We played the Palmer course

I play here often so it goes without saying the course is in great shape and is a challenge from any tee box. The fairways and greens are in great condition.

This review is more about the (limited) staff. Kyle in the pro shop is top notch and is always friendly. Under the circumstances we are currently living they have one guy doing the work of several running between the cart barn and the driving range. They are all doing a fantastic job keeping everything clean and taking all the necessary precautions. So please keep that in mind and give the guy a nice tip. In case your wondering...no I don’t work here nor am I a member.

I’m looking forward to when all the employees come back because they’re all a bunch of great people.

Thank you guys!!!

Beautiful throughout. Some challenges for a few tight fairways that will call you for placement over distance. Great shape everywhere. Loved it. Will most def be back.

Course looked great! Greens were inconsistent from hole to hole. Some ran quick and others were super slow

Greens were in great shape, pin positions were brutal. Only complaint was a few of the tee boxes in rough shape. Other than that, very much enjoyed the course and would definitely recommend.

Another great experience at Saddlebrook. I messed up when making my tee time and Neil in the Pro Shop was more than willing to help me out and help me avoid looking like a moron to my buddy...thanks Neil!!! As always the Palmer course was in great condition; the greens and fairways are fantastic. We had a few foursomes in front of the two of us and still completed 18 holes in under four hours.

My only complaint is with #5 and that’s not due to anything other than me and that hole don’t get along. I should probably just start skipping it and save myself the aggravation.

We usually like sitting down having a beer poolside after the round, unfortunately due to the current situation all the outside amenities are closed.

Again, thanks to the staff for another enjoyable morning.

Fantastic shape. Greens were rather green and pretty true. Notice said 5 greens were under repair but I could not find one not in immaculate shape Fairways were green and not patchy at all, sand was beautiful white(Yes did find a trap or two). Fantastic layout for all skill levels I'd say. Full service place, valet parking amenities like none I've seen super friendly staff. Makes me want to move into this complex. Wow!!! will definitely play at least once next year when I come back. Wish I could give more than five stars

Oh my. Threadbare in many places in the rough and around the greens. Five (!) greens under repair, with no roped off sections, no temporaries and no warnings when booking. No discount as a result of the poor conditioning. No offer of time at the range or mention of a practice putting green, just a push to get the players out. Many people with their hand out looking for a tip. Being charged for parking!. Even with the golf now discount, the greens fee was approximately 117.50 per player. Incredibly dissatisfying. The only positive was that we finished in three hours and 15 minutes

Avoid the Saddlebrook course until the new greens are in after the summer. The bottle course is in great condition all the greens were in great shape. Played here many times and this is as good as I’ve seen it.

Very busy day but pace was four hours and 15 minutes. Every Green was in good shape, not too fast but overall great condition.

One third of the greens were unputtable, really bad condition. Tees and fairways were in very good condition. Required valet parking was an irritant.

How can you keep a course open when 30% of the greens were unplayable? Would they consider informing you before making a tee time? When you"re finished golfing there is a long walk to the valet shack which costs 5 bucks and then the valet expects a tip. Never again. Too many nice courses around to waste your time on this dump.

As usual the Palmer course is in great condition; beautiful fairways and fast-true greens. The staff is always very friendly and helpful. I didn’t have tee time but Neil was great and found a way to get me out even on a very busy day. Considering how busy it was the pace of play was very good. Not sure how the cart girl does it but it seems like I ran into her every other hike. Of course I’ll be back. Thanks for another great day of golf

Paired with a couple from the Twin Cities. Layout was fun, course and green conditions were good. Pace of play was fine. First time playing there and enjoyed the day. If you do play here, plan extra time because of the car valet procedures and check in. Same for leaving. Other than that, good round.
