Nice track
Fast greens; overseeded fairways are good. Decent paint job on the collars. A few hidden hazards like the giant gator on 14! Worth winding all the way to the back of the development to get there.
Nice layout!
Great layout with strategically placed water, trees, and sand traps. Greens were smooth and fast. Fairways were cut a bit shorter than I prefer, but still OK.
Course Nice, Bunkers Need Work
The course was nice with a good layout. Greens were in very good shape. Bunkers were not soft sand; very hard which made them difficult to get out of.
Beautiful Golf course, great amenities, nice layout and greens are true.
great wildlife lots of gators fast greens overall very nice except for very slow foursome
Nice Sunday
Old school golf course with a nice practice area. Real range , no floater balls here. Plenty of room here to hit driver alot. Houses are far away from course so you never feel crowded. Nice mixture of holes so you get a different look and don’t get bored. Good place to come on a Sunday afternoon if you can get a tee time. Quite place away from the snowbird crowd that clog up the rest of the courses. Friendly staff too. Will be back!
Challenging Fun Golf
A course that was well layed out to keep one thinking out each shot——putting was difficult to read for breaks on the first try heading to the hole—-speed of putting was challenging!! Overall the layout had some tricky bounces towards sand traps and water!! An enjoyable experience!!
Pretty nice course little tight in spots not the best friends a medium green to a halfway decent I enjoyed my day
Pristine Condition
This is a 5 star golf course!!!!!
The practice facility is one of the best with unlimited free range balls!!!!
The pizza at the club house afterwards was excellent!!
This course is a must play!!
Nice day at River Wilderness
We really enjoyed this course. The layout was challenging but fair, the course was a little dry but still in great shape, and pace was under 4 hours.
I would strongly recommend this course as one of the nicest in the Sarasota / Bradenton area.
Lost Round
I have played this course many times over the last 10 years. The course was in the usual shape. Greens and fairways are good, little to no sand in the sand traps, many bare spots in the rough. What saves the course is the interesting layout and nice practice area. Unfortunately my round was interrupted on the 12th hole when the pro approached our group and notified us that due to a conflict with a nine hole members ladies league shotgun start we would have to stop playing and return to the front nine if we wanted to play more golf that day. It was a mistake by course management to allow our (and other) tee times that would conflict with the ladies league. No consideration was offered in terms of a rain check the only option was more golf on the front nine. So we payed $40 to play and replay one average nine holes of golf, no option to post a handicap score or see the golf course as some in our group had planned since they had not played the course before. It was clearly obvious that public play is a way to supplement the course income but is not a welcome activity for this course.
Disappointing condition
Have played this course around 6-7 times over the last 3 years and the condition has declined a bit. Greens still putt ok, but some sort of invasive grass has started to take root in some of the greens and some of the tee boxes are a bit beat up. Traps are not in great shape either. Not in the best condition heading into the season. Beautiful area and some cool hole designs so it’s unfortunate that I won’t want to play it again soon. Much better options in the area for the $50 we paid.
Enjoyed this course.
Friendly staff. Pace of play was great. Conditions were good. Will definitely play here again.
A wonderful course to play.
Wonderful course to play. Staff friendly, course in great shape, fantastic layout and very quick true greens,.
