Resort Experience On A Budget

At Saddlebrook you are treated to resort style amenities including free valet parking, bucket of range balls, poolside bar and upscale restaurant.

Palmer course layout is beautiful and offers ease of play off tees while challenging bunkers and fast greens.

Value for money is fantastic as the overall experience should have cost twice what I paid.

I will definitely be back to play Saddlebrook course.

Staff

I will never play this course again because I was approached on the driver range by staff member and was told to leave because I have only an hour to warm up and when you are finished playing your round you can not use the driver range.

Rough condition

Pulled up to bag drop and nobody grabbed our clubs. We had to carry our bags 3 blocks to pro shop. Course was in rough condition. Sand traps in bad condition. Gteens had fungus all over and didn’t change cups for at least 3 days. None of the buckets were filled with sand including cart to fill divots. Garbage cans over filled. You would think that they would have the course ready for the weekend. First time we played it was in great shape and everyone was great. Definitely wouldn’t go back.

Greens were surprisingly slow. I would expect a Troon course to be much better. Also, we never saw a beverage cart the whole day.

Conditions were pretty good but pace of play was mighty slow. Access to driving range before teeing off would’ve been nice - where is the range??

Friday First

Enjoyed the course very much. 3 of the 4 some had never played this course before. All Enjoyed. We will be back. Did not like we had to valet park even though it was free. Drinks on course very over priced - $22.00 doubles.
