Blue/Red at Myakka Pines Golf Club

Not much grass. Greens were fast, but didn’t roll smoothly.

We were paird with members, they were friendly and helpful. Wife and I in out 40's they were in their 80's and this track was fair to all of us. Long hitters might move back, pace of play was fine. Staff was awesome.

10+minutes wait at each hole. No marshall to speed the pace up.

Started out cart path only, bummer, but at 3rd hole the course was made 90 degree rule, excellent since the previous 24. Hours had rained non stop. Course drained well. All 3 nines are very well kept and the greens are quick.. would play this again for sure.

Like playing in a wildlife preserve which it kind of is. Nice not to see houses and condos all around you. Saw about 10 gators walking around, laying around, including a couple of 12 footers helps seeing that when you’re having a crappy round! Great entertainment. A little overpriced for the conditions but it is peak season.

The courses were good as usual and the staff great as well. Have now played all three nines and found them to be perfect for mid to high (that's me) handicappers. Plenty of sand and water, but minimal OB obstacles. A couple large gators to respect, of course... it's Florida! Normally range balls are included, but it was closed for some reason. They should inform via email prior to the round, maybe even a $5-10 credit since it is included in the price. I did get an advance email that it would be cart paths only due to the previous days rain (turned out it was 90 degree when I teed off in the afternoon). An excellent alternative to the many local public executive courses running through populated neighborhoods.

Excellent greens, very quick, fairways are very good, no bare spots etc.water come into play, positioning is vital to scoring well.
