Walk in the footsteps of pros at the Inverrary Country Club. Robert Trent Jones Sr. designed the golf courses at this club.
The legendary East Course is the signature course, where 15 PGA and LPGA tournaments were played including the Honda, the Jackie Gleason - Inverrary Classics, the Tournament Players Championship and the LPGA Phar-Mor Classic.
It is in excellent condition and is characterized by large, rolling greens, multiple tees, strategically placed bunkers, and lots of water. Its length from the championship tees is over 7100 yards.
The 7th hole is frequently mentioned as among the best par threes in Florida. Playing 199 yards from the back tee, it's all carry over water to a green that is angled in such a way as to look far smaller than it is in reality.

Good value for the price
Enjoyable round, friendly people, good pace. Course is suitable for all levels of play.
Cheapest golf around - not great but not bad at all.
For golf in this area it was a good value - nice enough weather, good greens, and OK fairways. There were not enough carts to go around so the rather rude cart guys would look at you with disdain if you wanted to load up a cart, say, 15 minutes before your tee time! Ridiculous! The folks behind the pro shop desk were great though and the weather made it enjoyable to play. The pace of play was very slow, so we couldn't finish a round due to darkness when we started at 1:50. I'm sure there are much better courses around, but not for $40-45 this time of year. With more TLC it could be great though. No walking at all - carts mandatory.
Long where it a needs to be
I thoroughly enjoyed playing this course. It plays long and the tree cover makes the angles to the greens difficult on approach if you miss the fairways on either side. Watch for the pin positions on the Par 3's and know your club yardage well.
Seen better days - but nonetheless a good game!
Inverrary is really "down at heel" from the Club House which needs serious re-decoration, to the practice facilities etc. And do they really need the lady who cooks and sells "barbecue", shouting her wares as though she is in a market somewhere?
The surroundings of the course aren't much to look at either. In many cases badly maintained condos.
But - in spite of the environment - the course was OK and we had a good game. It is not at all expensive so I suppose you get what you pay for. A mere shadow of former glory though!
explanition very poor.
The indication , on the course, are very poor.
On the score card, it have not a picture of the holes.
On the course,the indication for the next holes
are really déficient.
Also,at the beginning of each holes, habitually we
find a picture of the hole. But not at that course.
It means that, when you play for the first time,
you don't know where you have to go and what
is on the hole. (sand,water,dog leg ect.)
Good, despite overnight rain
While many prefer playing the East (Old Tournament Course) the West has its features and challenges. The course was wet from overnight rain requiring cart path only. This caused the pace of play to suffer. For all the water from the day before the greens were still quick and the fairways in good shape.
What a course !!!
To appreciate your " A " game, its a test of all your skills on these two golf courses. In top shape, healthy greens, choice of tees; although I played the blues on a windy day, some holes are giving and forgiving, and some are punishing even from the middle of the fairway. Will be your day if you score good.
Very enjoyable round
Even with the rain for 2days prior to our round, the course was is great condition. Occasional sand traps had water but most of the course was is good shape. Over all conditions are better this year than last. Perhaps because of the extra rain. Greens were fast as I like them and manageable. Great time.
very nice for the price
it was a very good trip course
i return often to play
Good course, great history
Good place to play, nothing great, but fairways, greens, and tee box's were good. Good staff friendly and a great lay out. This was once home too many tour events and the layout is great.
Good layout but terrible not so good course condition
The layout is good and challenging but the course condition is not what you would expect for a premium price.
It's ok to play it for the upper $10s to lower $20s.
Good course for the price
Course was in good condition. Played the round in 4 hours. Very good value for the price
Super friendly staff and a nice track. The greens were the best part.We played the EAst course and had a great afternoon.
Super friendly staff. A great old course. The greens were very good and the course was in wonderful condition. Would not hesitate to go again and score better. A great value.
fast and true greens
The greens are among the finest down here right now.
Great course in good condition. Fairways were great.
Enjoyed playing at the course. Friendly staff. Good food at the restauranti
This course is nice.
Excellent course, great time with friends. good conditions and friendly personal.
we played 36 holes on that day in a very good times.
because of the rain in the last days, some holes were very wet but beside that the course was in shape. we enjoyed our day.
