Deer Island Country Club

This course is so challenging. I think it’s one of the most beautiful courses in the area.

Good greens, good tee boxes, good pace of play, and great price.

Booked a Hote Deal round at this course-but my mistake-selected the wrong date. We showed up at the course, found out about my error, and figured I'd just lost the GN payment. Susan-one of the senior managers, came to our aid immediately-she went well above and beyond to fix my error-made is all feel valued. They figured a way to get me and my buddy out quickly-even on a packed Saturday. The course was in very good condition (much nicer than surrounding courses), and we played in under 4 hours. Altogether, a great day, with a very favorable impression of how much management cares about their customers. I'll be back, and highly reccomends this couse to anyone withing 1 hour's drive right now.

Deer Island provides a challenge for all levels of golfers. I think there’s water on all 18 holes and plenty of sand and small greens. The course is in good shape the views are beautiful I would highly recommend playing deer Island.

Beautiful course. Staff was very helpful and friendly.

Course was in great condition, somewhat challenging, needed to know where to place your shots, along of water, played in 4 hours. Highly recommend, a little out of the way, but we'll worth it.

Great course. Tough if you have not played. Lots of hidden trouble. Even if you know it you can get in trouble. Reasonable prices and it is a pleasant day trip.

I played here just last week and already have another tee time for this week. What a great course. Beautiful holes and views. It's set on an island and they have plenty of water. Played it 3 1/2 hours and loved it.

Bring extra balls, there is water everywhere. Course is in very good shape and very challenging. I live in The Villages and rate this course higher than most of their courses with a cost of $25 per round cheaper. More than that if you’re a vet. Definitely going back.

Was a 5 hour round, called in and let them know we were stacked up with 4 foursomes on a hole, said would try and get someone out??? Unacceptable.

Our first round back in Florida after the pandemic. The course was in good condition and the greens were quick. Pace of play was good and round in 4 hours.
Friendly staff but no food available as the kitchen was closed.
Have re booked a 2nd round.

Excellent golf course and fun to play. However when we checkdimmed I was told I could not purchase a bucket of balls because I only had 30 minutes before my tea time. I explained I thought we could hit a small bucket between 2 of us and still make our tea time. She made it clear if we were a minute late we would not get out as they were full all that.
She actually seemed very rude to her fellow employee as well. As much as we really enjoyed the golf course it would be tough to recommend to others with an experience like that period Had planned to come back this week but decided to go elsewhere.

We last played Deer Island 6 years ago but have not returned to Florida from the UK because of the pandemic. A great welcome and we were lucky enough to be paired up with a couple from Wisconsin. We played ready golf and got round in 4 hours. Plenty of grass on the fairways and the greens were very good. A good test of golf. Only downside was the kitchen closed early.. Hope to get back before we return home.

Some good scenery around lake, but disappointed it seemed that about every hole had raised greens, thus every time you just barely missed green you were faced with a very difficult and almost unfair shot. Not the most enjoyable in that respect, but on a positive, very nice environment and views throughout.

Played 6 rounds this past week and Deer Island was by far the best! Fun, challenging (especially with the wind - take two extra clubs), great shape compared to others this time of year and you really know your in Florida!!

Excellent course with a unique layout. Very challenging. Water on 16/18 holes. Worth the drive. Will be back.
