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.

Not bad for the price and last minute

We booked this at the last minute and showed up as a twosome and kept getting singles paired with 3’s in front of us. We got paired with a single eventually also. We ended up teeing off two full tee times behind our scheduled tee time. The pace of play was quite slow for a 6000 yard course. 5 hours for a group of 3 is pretty bad. The course was in average condition. The greens were quite slow as they hadnt been mowed anytime recently. The tee boxes were either overgrown or completely bare. The layout is short but fun, that’s the only reason I’d say it was worth it.

Heritage Harbor drying out!

The employees at the course were great. Let me start by saying however the course and pace of play was the worst I’ve seen in Florida so far. Not worth it for a country club.

Could be better

Greens and around most greens were in good shape but the fairways were not watered and totally burned out and/or dormant. Not what you would expect for the money. Got a good rate on Golf Now and still wasn’t worth the money. Pace was very slow and no Marshall insight to move things along. Layout was great! If fairways were in good shape it would be a very nice course to play.

Great Place to Knock off the Rust!

Being from the north, generally need a course to play that does not overly punish my bad shots. I was once nearly scratch, but age has taken its toll. Heritage Harbor is just the right blend of challenging and fair. You can make it about as difficult as you want depending on what tee you play. Playing Heritage gets my game going after months of layoff, it prepares me to play something like TPC and not get too intimidated by the visuals. The course is playing very firm right now, no rain, and dormant fairways. Do not let this deter you, just plan on the ball running a good amount.

Good value and good layout.

I like this course a lot. I’ve been down for about a month and I have played four or five courses in the area. This definitely ranks up near the top. A very good circuit layout. The greens were slightly spongy, but very true reads. Tee boxes need some TLC, but the course was in pretty good shape. Got teamed up with some members and that helped with course knowledge. Overall, I will definitely come back.

New cart GPS for the course is very inconsistent. On a few holes the cart stated after stopping in the middle of the fairway to play the ball "Caution Near Water", the cart shut down. Had to turn it off, then on again, push the cart in reverse for 15 yards directly backwards in order for it to engage. Who ever installed the software for the course GPS must be retrained properly so not to cause delays on the course. This MUST be addressed.

Bogey

Played the course a couple times now. Fairways are in rough shape. No irrigation, and way to much sand in the fairway. Greens are in bad shape do to undisciplined golfer not repairing divots and be careless. Greens and tee boxes need to be maintained They are trying to open up a few holes and make the course more player friendly. Has the potential to be a nice course. Might give it another shot in 4 to 6 months

Don't waste your money

the course is in horrible shape. They did not overseed, so the fairways are all dormant. ALL 18 of them. It is like hitting on deadpan everywhere. I really like this course, but right now, stay away until the raining season comes back and grass is growing again.
