Old Corkscrew Golf Club

The only reason for not giving 5 stars was a few greens were impacted with a fungus that the course is working to rectify. WE were informed when we were teeing off about the issue and should have been informed at time of booking. The good news is we just moved the ball around impacted areas (only a couple) and the course otherwise is PERFECT!!! We teed off at 9 am and no one in front of us or behind on a beautiful day and round. will DEFINITELY BE BACK!

We had a great day out at Corkscrew. The course is in much better shape now, and the layout is arguably one of the best in Southwest Florida. From the tips, it’s a tough but fair test of your game.

It’s always a treat to play a course in Florida without being surrounded by chimney pots, and Corkscrew absolutely delivers on that front. Each hole feels completely separate from the rest, offering a true sense of isolation and immersion—real “millionaire’s golf.”

We’ll definitely be back soon.

When we visit the area golfing always play Old Corkscrew as it’s a fabulous layout and possibly one of the most difficult but enjoyable courses to play. Played off the blue tees which is around 6,400 yards and it was more than playable. Tees and fairways were in excellent condition. However, the greens unfortunately not to the standard you’d expect from Old Corkscrew or other similar nearby courses. The greens have been subjected to some type of disease which has caused many of them to be patched. Not all greens are affected but those are being protected so when the others have recovered they will be okay. Overall it didn’t affect our enjoyment but we know the greens will recover soon. When back we’ll play Old Corkscrew again.

I understand the course is currently undergoing changes due to a lack of prior maintenance, which we were aware of at the time of booking. Since I’m not much of a putter, the condition of the greens didn’t impact my experience significantly. However, we frequently had to wait on the grounds crew to finish maintenance at the tee boxes, mow the fairways and greens, and in several cases, wait for sprinklers to stop running—this was around 11:30 in the afternoon.

This is a fantastic course that I’ve enjoyed many times in the past. That said, the grounds crew should be more mindful of players and show greater respect for the flow of the game.

Course was in terrible shape, greens full patches and not good ones. They should have paid us to play. Doubt I ever go back.

The course has a great layout but the greens were in horrific shape. Many greens had sod patches on them where grass had died and they were very slow. If you are going to charge that kind of money to play a golf course it needs to be in good condition. I would blame a lot on the draught but I played 3 other courses in the area this week, all less expensive, and they were in great condition.

I played this course last year at end of May, course was in much better shape then. That being said, it’s the end of the season and it’s been very dry past month. The staff was also upfront in advising a few greens were struggling with the fungus issues (hence the discounted fee).

Overall the course is very scenic and fun to play. It does seem that the maintenance is struggling on several areas which appears to have changed since I played last year.

Staff was extremely pleasant and helpful for anything needed. Some help from Mother Nature and some improved maintenance will get it back to where it belongs.

Wirklich einer der schönsten Plätze in der Umgebung, mitten in der Natur ohne angrenzende Bebauung. Für 100 $ mehr als fair, auch wenn einige Grüns under repair waren. Das Layout ist anspruchsvoll, selbst wenn man gerade spielt. Und verzieht man, ist der Ball meist im Wasser oder weg.

You never told us the greens were still damaged from Hurricane Milton. Fairways wear not plush as a Jack Nicklaus course should be and the greens were the worst I’ve played on in Southwest Florida. Bare spots, no grass, and little “speed” bumps all over the greens. They are redoing everything next year, but in meantime you got us screwed on Old Corkscrew.

We called you after, you did nothing. It was a waste of time.

Greens were in horrible shape. To charge that kind of money for the condition they are in is nuts. I love the place fun. But you can’t charge that with these greens
