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.

I really like the layout of this course. Condirion is average with weeds on most greens, but even with that the greens are surprisingly quick with mostly smooth rolling. Love holes 13 and 18. Fairways and tees have weeds but doesn't affect play. Was told that the course bond is expected to be paid off this year and the management will then start making course improvements. IMO this course has great potential. Overall would have no problem recommending this golf course.

Fun Course

Have always liked Heritage Harbor golf course. Cool layout. Makes you use all clubs. Tee boxes could be a little more mowed. Greens were above average. Overall I would recommend this course to any player.

First Time Playing

Paid Cadillac prices, played an 86 Camry.

First time here, the layout of the holes were great, challenges hazards with a few narrow fairways here and there. Some generous holes also.

The greens played true and were the best part of the conditions, the fairways were overgrown and wild. Balls get lost in the fairway. Almost as though the Golf course was playing second fiddle to the country club / water park.

Brutal course conditions

They've really let this place go. let's just say you'll have trouble finding your ball in the fairway and have no issue getting out of bunkers...

Rough Condition

There is a reason there were so many open tee times. The greens were awful with weeds and dirt patches all over almost every green, the fairways were filled with weeds. The traps had weeds as well.

The weeds were spray painted. Not sure what that was about.

No ranger to be found. No beverage cart.

The layout was fine. That was it. The course is in really, really poor shape and one of the people in our foursome said it is in better shape than it was earlier this year. Not good.

Lack of effort

Grass growing in the bunkers is a sign of laziness of the ground maintenance crew. Everything else was great.

Too expensive for the shape the course was in

Overall, the experience was average. Front 9 tees and greens were not in good shape. Overprices for the course in the condition it was in.

If only the club house staff would tell people ahead of time that every single green is not playable due to 1/4" sand spread all over and you will not be able to putt, that would have changed my mind playing this course. Please take lessons from TPC and Saddle Brook on how to take care of greens.

Fun layout, shot making course.

This is one of my favorite courses in Tampa.

Warning, the greens are top dressed. A couple of holes there was so much sand on the green, I had to call a vet to take care of the camel I hit on my approach shot. But in a couple of weeks, the greens will be great.
