Saddlebrook Resort - Oak/Cypress

Teed off at 7:45am and was done by 10:30am. First round I have played in under 3 hrs in a LONG time. Just 2 of us.

Course in good shape overall. Bunkers in good condition. Greens were good not great. Overall good value for the money.

Fantastic experience. Layout is interesting without being so tight that you worry about loosing your golf ball on every 3rd shot. Tidewater, Heritage Club, Phoenician and now Saddlebrook are my most favorite courses to play around the country. People were really nice! Only complaint, they could invest in a few road signs inside the gate to help find the course.

The course was nice and staff was friendly. A huge resort community. It seemed most people were there for other amenities. The property has a magnanimous amount of tennis courts and resort style pool. We didn’t use the amenities and not sure what additional costs (if any) would be incurred.

Positives: The course was in decent condition. The pace of play was great. It was just me and a friend and we were not paired with anyone else. The first 4 holes we had no one in front of us, but we eventually ran into a foursome. As to be expected, the pace slowed down slightly given that there were just 2 of us. But it was still not a terrible pace. It’s possible there was a tournament in the morning that we caught the tail end of. Not sure.

Negatives: The access to drinks around the course was terrible. Especially given that it was early Sunday afternoon. There was not a cart path attendant and limited stations for water, ball washing, etc. NOTE: IF YOU WANT TO HIT THE RANGE, GET THERE VERY EARLY. The range is nowhere near the clubhouse or first tee box. You must drive through neighborhoods on a golf cart (about 10 mins).

Overall, a good course with abundant wildlife. Course was not “premier”, but definitely playable conditions. I would play again.

Good pace, greens well maintained, and felt like only ones on the course.

Enjoy this great layout, either 18 is enjoyable to play! Greens are not easy to putt, but a fun challenge. Easy check in, great starters and cart personal every time I play the course!

Highly recommend enjoying a day at the Daddle!

Need Some more communication for us first timers there. Couldn't fund 1...lol...Driving around the pool was fun though. Had a blast. Fun course. Greens could be rolled.

I have played both courses now and

was greatly impressed with EVERYTHING!

Soooo easy to give five star rating for every category

An absolute gem! Phenomenal layout and incredible greens. Truly a slice of heaven! Am coming back again to play the Palmer TODAY (March 5th 2024). Almost too good to be true type of place. My brother from Massachusetts said the same thing!

The course is good could be a little bit better for the money you pay and for them having a true golf school. Definitely will go back and play again.

What a gem! Worth the 50 minute drive from

Westchase area I was visiting in Tampa. Planning on coming back again for sure! Greens were

Incredible. I lost quite a few golf balls, but that’s on me!🙂

Nice course but could use the water on to turn it green

Playable and nice holes
