Worth it

I've played here 4 times now. I'm not wealthy, however I will pay for quality. If I had a choice to play here once and another course of lesser quality twice I would play here once. They are usually busy, with that said pace of play is good (and I like to play quick). The course is always in excellent condition better than any I've played in the area. I'm a 14 handicap and this time played 2nd from longest tees and shot just barely above my average, so it's also playable. This is the second time I've been paired with members and they have all been a pleasure to play a round with sharing local knowledge as if I were a friend. This isn't a country club struggling so they allow public access. They truly are very welcoming and hospitable. Play here. The only possible regret you may have is your own game if it's off that day.

Good golf

Excellent round with two good players who respected the course.

Have played here for 20 years in November and this time the course was in good condition considering how many people play here.

The treatment at the course is so special

This course is awesome, probably the best course in the Bradenton and Sarasota area, we played a lot but this is the best. The staff is so friendly, it makes golf such more comfortable. It costs more than usaual, but it is worth ererbend penny. Find out some hotdeals and you get both

Very nice course. All skill levels will enjoy

Plenty of bunkers and plenty of sand in each of the bunkers. Nice fluffy shots out

Greens are true may be a little on the slow side

Fairways were beautiful

GPS

One of the area’s top course’s friendly staff but the on board computer screen on several occasions shut down the cart when your clearly outside the posted area and also locks the brakes so u can’t move it’s u have to wait until it gets turned back on! Then for the remainder of the round it keeps telling u your behind the group in front of you and the Ranger will have to tell u to speed up!! It’s frustrating and I have seen this happen quite often!

It doesn’t get much better

This place is a well oiled machine. The staff is excellent and very friendly. The course was in excellent condition. We played as a foursome and we’re finished in well under 4 hours.
