Located just 20 minutes from downtown in the Forest Hills section of Tampa, Babe Zaharias Golf Course meanders through a tree-lined residential neighborhood. The golf course measures a modest 6,020 yards, but should not be taken lightly. Although both nines on "The Babe" are par 35, the back side sports four par-4 holes in excess of 400 yards, providing a challenge for golfers of all skill levels.

We like the course

Always enjoy playing this course. We only hit it once every c couple of months because it's a bit of a drive for us, but it is well worth playing. Right now the rough is really rough.

The course wasn't in great shape. I got a $20 HotDeal, so it was a decent value, but there are better options at comparable prices, so I probably won't be back.

Course Play

The only chance that you have not to lose a ball is from the Tee Box onto the green. The grass needs to manicured in order to keep this course in pristine play. Also charging ten dollars on top of your green fee's is insane. Are we not experiencing a pandemic?

Great course but pace of play was spotty

We had an excellent time and would definitely play again. Only thing i would say is that the course should emphasize pace of play to larger groups and groups that are walking. What would take five minutes of waiting for those groups would save the group playing faster behind them a lot of time.
