About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 6898 yards
Slope 129
Rating 73.5

The Heritage Harbor Golf Club measures nearly 7,000 yards from the back tees and is one of the more challenging public course layouts in the Tampa Bay area. Four sets of tees have been incorporated into the design, making the course fun for golfers of all skill levels. The swirling winds and strategically located bunkers will play havoc with the players of these finely manicured links. However, the large greens may provide some relief. The premium on the championship course has been placed mainly on the short game. Winding through natural areas and cypress heads, Heritage Harbor Golf Club offers many scenic, unobstructed views. Seven of the eighteen holes have no homesites adjacent to the fairways, offering great, uncluttered golf.

Very unfriendly Employees

The course was a very good course to play, the weather was perfect and my round was going well. We were playing with 2 more friends but 2 other friends that want to start golfing were with Us watching us hitting the balls. On the 7th hole the manager came to Us very angry and yelling to uis that we were playing so slow without looking the people in front of us that we were waiting to leave the hole. He was a complete monster yelling very nasty stuff to us and telling We tried to calm him down but he was out of his mind. Our round went down from there. We finished but this guy was the most unprofessional person that I found in my life.

Course could be better

I was surprised that this course was rated a 4 star. In my opinion it is a 3-3.5. The layout was okay but the greens were super slow both up and down grain. Although, we are in winter season, the fairways seem dry and patchy. With a little more love it could be a more enjoyable course. Some holes had shots where you could not get reads to the greens with you laser because of the high foliage in front of the greens. Anyone reviewing this, please give it a try and let others here what you think.

Some fun holes

There were a few fun holes, but then also a couple crazy holes with severe dog legs. From the blue tees, there were many short holes that require a layup or a very tight landing for a driver. I think playing this course multiple times You can fully appreciate it. For instance, on 18 you have no idea how much brush there is to cover with the driver or to try carrying it. The layup is like 170 yard shot so it’s very Mickey Mouse to me..

Solid course. Price a little off for conditions.

Before round:

Checked in at clubhouse but signage to pro shop could be more visible. Sign is like 8x11 on the building you are walking parallel to.

Shop attendant was friendly and checked me in, no issues, average service.

Hit the range:

Range was good. Hitting into water is funny as your hearing a sound you don’t usually want to hear. But driving range wasn’t mats (huge plus) and the chilling putting area was nice.

Starter:

Victor was as friendly as they come. Few minutes to chat after he sent a group and he was welcoming and informative.

Tee boxes:

These were solid. Not too much wear and some good placements (we played yellows) that gave some good views and “difficulty”.

Fairways:

This is where course needs a lot of help. Understandable it’s winter and grass may weather some but fairways are very thin and not manicured, at least not recently. Would rather play from rough area than most fairways.

Greens:

Greens were long and slow. Can tell a big issue they’re dealing with is inconsiderate golfers not fixing divots or caring for greens as players. This made speed inconsistent from hole to hole.

Layout:

Course is laid out well. Enjoyed the difficulty of a few holes where you had to be wide with club choice.

Overall:

I’d play here again but not for $74 a round.

Pretty Course, with water on virtually every hole. Water locations often do not come into serious play. Greens were in excellent condition.
