I Recommend This Course
Wait For Awhile.
We played here on 5/31. Although it hasn't rained in quite some time, it was 'Cart Path Only' - which made it a bit more challenging in the heat. I have played here many times and have always enjoyed the outing at University Park. This time it was much different. The course is in need of LOTS of water. Many of my shots from the fairway were from crispy brown, dried-out grass. The greens are in fairly good shape, but still were a bit bumpy from recent plugging. Overall, we were quite disappointed in the condition of the course, and the amount charged. I was surprised that they let the course deteriorate to that point. We will wait for quite a while before playing here again.

People that work here are super rude
Got yelled at for stopping at the turn to grab drinks. My group spent $700+ to be rushed when we’re 10 minutes behind pace because we bought drinks at the turn.

Will come back!
Enjoyed this course very much. Conditions were great considering how dry this area of Florida has been all year. Even with punched greens, they rolled well under pretty decent healing. Look forward to coming back.

The course greens were irritated and a number of ongoing repair work. Not advised
of the conditions - very poor considering what
they charge for green fees.

Greens were just punched 1/4 size, would not of played there @$130 had we known! Not sure why no courses feel that they have to let you know this before you play. A little courtesy would be nice!! Other then that one of the best public golf in Sarasota

Fabulous Trek and great shape!
Beautiful course that presents a challenge from whatever tee you choose. The course in fantastic shape and the pace of play was great. Coming from the east coast of Canada, this course was a treat for this time of year. Recommend any golfer and there are tees that accommodate for any handicap.
