Golfer Reviews
Management mistake
Definitely a 5 star course, but management had a membership scramble go off at 1, then let tee times resume at 1:39. It was too soon and made a 5 hour round with a lot of standing and waiting
Still yet, a great course to play in Bradenton florida
Perfect Golf day
The weather was absolutely perfect for a round of golf. The course is in great shape in spite of what other reviews said. The starter, Marti was so much fun and made our experience even better. He arranged for us to play as a twosome and even though the round was really slow, we were happy to wait and enjoy the wildlife and scenery on each hole. Yes, it was a bit pricey but it is the high tourist season so it’s understandable. Overall, a great day of golf for my husband and myself.
Very disorganized
Didn’t get cart till 10 mins after starting time so unable to get to practice range. Staff very unhelpful. Pace of play very slow (4hrs 40 mins). Course conditions good but overall experience not worth the price.

1:39 pm tee time, didn't tee off until 2:10 pm, because they had no available Golf Carts.
I arrived at 12:40 pm for my 1:39 pm tee time. Because there were no golf carts available I waited around for over an hour. The staff kept telling me that a cart would come soon...NOT! Kind of disappointing for a $110 afternoon greens fee. The club should buy 12 more golf carts!
The course was much greener than most other courses in the area. It is a tight and challenging course. Pace of play was incredibly slow. We finished near sunset after 4 hours 40 minutes.
I'll give Rosedale one more try, but if it is similar, then it will be my last time playing there.
I wish they had a beverage cart out on the course since the pace of play was so slow.

Nice layout
Very slow Play- 5 hours with no Marshall- course looked great and greens were decent.
Hit it straight off the tee
Or you’ll be getting a new ball out of the bag a lot! Lots of water, lots of trees, and lots of fun. Highly recommended!
Nice Course - A Little Pricey
It was our first time at Rosedale.
The course was in good condition, staff was friendly and the weather a little cool.
While we all enjoyed the course, we all felt that it was over-priced by 20-30%.
We are not sure if we will go back.
One of the Better Courses in Bradenton
My wife and played this course for our third time. We both enjoyed the day thoroughly. The course layout is challenging but fair. Greens were fast enough and in good condition. Overall fairway grass was good with a few patchy area. The price was higher than past years but we were pleased that the pace of play was very good and the course not over crowded. Would play again.
The course is very pretty for a Florida course and in very good condition. The course is much too tight with some unexpected water hazards, which make the course less fun to play.
Good but Not Great
Worse part was bathroom on front nine was down and made it horribly inconvenient. Greens were really hard and you couldn’t hardly stop a ball on them! Narrow tees with trees and vegetation in both sides creating difficult tee shots. Fairways were OK and pace of play was great! We lucked out and never had to wait on anyone! Price was a little high for this course. Would play again with lower price.
Nice surprise
First time playing Rosedale. 1:00 tee time on a Wednesday. Pace of play was great. Never waited. Loved the layout. Classic tree lined fairways with plenty of Spanish moss. Fairways in excellent shape. Wish I was a member!
Definite Play Again
Was warned by others and the reviews about how tight the course is but I "played it forward' as was recommended and it was a great round. Greens were browned out because of the recent frost but were fairly quick and ran true (green is just a colour)
Great layout
The course does not forgive errant shots but it is fair if you play the course as designed. Being the first time I played it there were some hidden hazards that would be avoided on a second round. It’s a must play in this area. And good value.
High handicappers beware
This course was beautiful. Immaculately maintained, scenic, and very interesting layout. But for a high handicapper it was sheer torture to play from the blue tees, which at 6300 yards didn’t seem too much to take on. But many of the tee boxes are cannon-barrel style like Spyglass Hill, there are many forced carries, and the entire course is narrow with water or vegetation on both sides. If you are a 15+ handicapper move up to the black tees and you will at least avoid most of the stress & lost balls. If you are not accurate off the tee that may not help either. But if you want an epic tee shot on every hole and don’t mind losing a lot of golf balls, this is the course for you. Pace of play was of course affected by every group looking for a wayward ball.
