Course Highlights
Waterford's staff consistently earns high praise for friendliness, and rounds regularly finish in under four hours. Challenging layouts with plenty of water, well-maintained fairways, and fast greens deliver strong value for the price.

Great pace of play and good course

I played at Waterford on Saturday, and we enjoyed the experience. The course was in good shape, and we finished the round in under four hours. The staff was friendly and there are nice facilities at the course. It's an easy drive from Sarasota and we'll definitely go back. It is a great value.

Open fairways make round enjoyable

Nice track. Friendly people except for guy taking balls and bags from range. He must get laid by the number of balls he recovers. If anyone’s balls left over, he won’t let you hit them and instead picks them up for resell. Funny. First time I ever saw this.

Pace of play great for popular track with many golfers. Thank you.
