Saddlebrook Resort - Pine/Oak

Course layout was your typical resort model. Greens were very undulating but were very slow around 6 so a miss on the high side was not punishing. I would play it again but from the Blue tees I hit a lot of sand wedges and 9 irons. A few greens were hour glass shape with the pin in the middle a real challenge.

This is during Covid Pandemic, The course was in good condition, greens were good. The course was very wet, but overall I felt the resort is putting money into the course and making maintainence a priority during a very difficult time. It is a fun, if quirky layout. The effect of the pandemic is apparent on this once thriving resort, however, they are really trying to do what they can to make it through. If you plan on playing, be sure to allow extra time for parking and practice as the range, parking and course are all very spread out and you will need to allow time to shuttle from one to the other.

This is a course (and the Palmer course)that when I’m the Tampa area you have to make time to play both.Staff are very friendly and most helpful . You just need to play and enjoy both courses

My daughter and I played a round at the Palmer Course getting her ready for a junior golf event. A hurricane had come through the day before and dumped a lot of rain. The course was in pretty good shape despite the rain. We played in under four hours with cart paths only. The front nine was much more difficult than the back. Would definitely play here again.

Wasted my monthly free round (2) executive course some what no yardage markers, we walked off the course after 8 holes, what a disappointed. My mistake didn't read reviews. Could of played a good course with my time.

I had played the Palmer course a few times at Saddlebrook and really enjoyed that course. The Saddlebrook was another test! Tight winding fairways with bunkers and water galore. The day I played was one of the more windy days I have ever played in. That made everything a little bit harder. Really enjoyed the layout and would love another crack at it. Highly recommend playing this course!!

The course has a great routing and is not your typical straignt hole with tree lined fairways. The course moves left to right and right to left on a fair number of holes. The biggest lesson I learned playing this course was you need to be very precise with your tee shot and approach shot landing area. Lots of undulation on the fairways and greens can make a decent shot a lottle of trouble if it rolls into the rough or hazard. Aim for the high side.

Course conditions are good. Tee boxes, fairways and greens are all in good condition. My only issues are that the course is high priced for what you get and there were no restrooms available as all were closed. They could still be open if they were cleaned regularly but they elect to close them. In addition, you don’t get back to the clubhouse or even a snack shop at the turn. Plus, you park several blocks away and need to be Shuttled back and forth. I like having my cart near my car so that I can pack and unpack what I need.

FIRST TIME ON THIS TRACK OVERALL NICE TRACK,SOME TOUGH HOLES, LOT OF WATER SEVERAL HOLES, OVERALL GOOD SHAPE .

It is a nice course, but it is not near the. PALMER Course condition.

Course was in great shape. Previous reviews about greens being worked on are no longer relevant. All green complexes were in good condition.

We were suppose to play Palmer Course but were told by starter we had to play other course as they had shotgun on Palmer.

We didn't get to play course I reserved. Bad greens brought fairways
