Old Corkscrew Golf Club
About
Carved from forests of towering oaks and pines, Old Corkscrew Golf Club exhibits all of the superior characteristics that define Nicklaus Signature courses. The absence of houses around the golf course adds to the secluded and peaceful feel that is provided by the dense thickets of trees that surround it. Jack Nicklaus himself was a prominent presence throughout every phase of the course's construction, incorporating well balanced holes that vary in direction, look, and feel. Proper club selection will be greatly rewarded on this golf course. The fast-paced, undulating greens sit up to 20 feet above the lush, rolling fairways, which can create some tricky pin placements if you're not careful. Old Corkscrew Golf Club's fairways are rather generous, but they are framed by carefully sculpted bunkers. Several large ponds come into play on nearly every hole and there are also numerous sand traps strategically placed along the greensides.

9th Green Photo submitted by jmcbride2013 on 04/21/2013
Dead greens
All the greens had serious problems or were basically dead.
Great, except.
The layout is tremendous. Visually a treat. The greens are diseased and in need of replacement.
Disgraceful greens
I love this course, the layout is great, but unfortunately the greens were a disgrace and this wasn’t mentioned when we arrived at the course.
Worst greens I have played on all year.
Great Course
This was the third time I have played this course. The greens were in need of some TLC and the course was in multiple places COMPLETELY under water due to the storm. This isnt a hit on the course because that's out of their control but just be aware that there are additional "lakes" that use to be sand traps but now are ground under repair until the water drains
Hurricane damage
I have played Old Corkscrew many times during the past 15 years and I have never seen it in such poor shape. Staff should stop play and care for the greens, fairways and bunkers. The damage the course suffered during Helene and Milton is evident. The worst part is the greens. Municipal courses are in much better shape than this course that used to be a gem. Do not waste your money. I sincerely hope that the management and owners put pride on the product before profit. What a disappointing Sunday it was.
Bad course
Very hard, very wet, built in a swamp,They lost all their greens and forget putting on them.very difficult layout and I’m a 14,I would not recommend this course and we were never notified that they lost their greens I would not play this course for $40.00 never mind $129.00
The greens here were in horrible shape. I really wish someone would alert us when the greens have been aerated. Even on golf now we paid too much. I will not return
Wide Fairways
Although there are waste-like areas throughout the course there is very little of what I would term "rough". Fairways are wide and then there is a second cut then the waste areas. If you're hitting relatively straight, you'll almost always have a good lie for your next shot.
Greens Not Good
Played Old Corkscrew multiple times over the years and the greens were the worst they have ever been. A third of the greens were almost unplayable. Some sort of a disease or course management issue. Some of the greens had patchwork repairs and areas of no grass. What was frustrating, I called prior to booking and asked when they were aerrified and what condition they were. Was told they were aerified but it great condition. I beg to differ. Not worth $97.50 to play. If the greens are in bad shape discount the price or close the course and fix them. I would be okay if I only paid $45, the true value. We won't be back until the greens are in a acceptable playing condition.
Great place
When you come in to play golf on this course, be prepared to leave it all out there. Your ball striking, your putting, and even your eyesight is going to be tested by the beauty and layout of of course. A couple of greens with a little bit of issues, but nothing major overall. I 100% enjoyed playing in this golf course.
Challenging, Scenic course is a “must play” in Fort Myers
Beautiful property and a staff that enhances the experience. This course is true to golf in more aspects then just the game. The greens and course was under some maintenance but was still very playable. We will be back to try conquering again. Thanks Old Corkscrew and thanks to the Hoffman Family for all the wonderful things you bring to SWFL.
Jack's spot!!
Loved the layout, very challenging and beautiful. Played the day of a sfpga tournament, which was awesome. Did not try the food, other than the best hotdog I have personally ever had. This course is a must see and the hot dog a must on the turn!!
Just finished course maintenance
Played day after they finished course maintenance, but course played well, they are working on the greens
