Gillespie Par 3, Sarasota, FL

A very nice, easy paced, course for beginners and those who want to hone their iron skills, and for the right price, considering its location. We were greeted by Ken who is friendly, easy going, knowledgeable and very accommodating. He is an asset to their team. Easy access to the facility is a plus.

Great potential

Course layout is great, if they pay a little more attention to cleaning this up (bunkers need work)

I know they are concentrating on the 18 hole course, but maybe they could spare a few guys a couple days a week to get this one sorted out, once they do that, guarantee getting a tee time will be difficult.

Over we love it, been golfing here lately and teaching my son the game, and he plays for free 👍.

Good for knocking rust off

Wife and I took some time in Florida to escape the cold in the north. Played this first to get back in the swing. Quirky lay out, thin fairways. But, we had enjoyable time.
