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.

Course was in excellent shape. One of the toughest courses I have played in Southwest Fla. Slope ratings speak for themselves . Demanding test for even skilled players. This course will now be on my annual list. Staff was excellent .

BIG $$$ course with not so great conditioning

Got a hot deal for $125 (total) and looked forward to the game at this notably close to $200 course. Great layout. Fairway grass was thick, semi damp and a little on the long side making the course play long even from the whites. Biggest disappointment.....the greens were inundated with sand as if an aeration had taken place although there was no aeration. First and last time for me at this one! Not even close to being worth its boasted retail price.

2nd Time

Enjoyed playing again, this time with my son. Challenging course even from the white tees which offer an alternating mix of short and mid-long holes. Don't think the short holes will be easy, there's plenty of strategically placed water and bunker hazards. Will be back again next.year.

This is a beautiful layout. A Fun but difficult course.

Sadly the greens were in pretty tough shape. Fix that and I would recommend this to any good golfer.

Beautiful and difficult

Wonderful layout without a home in sight. Very very challenging and grateful for all the red stakes.

Fast guarded greens, lots of bunkers right in the way of my tee shots and water of course.

Bring your best game and lots of balls but do play it.

Keep it in play off the tee.

Play the right tees for your game. Don't be afraid to use a 3 wood at times on the tight fairways which are on the par 5's. Found out in some cases when your you were hitting just off the fairway the ground was soft and ugly. It was very easy to hit a shot weak and short. Next i will try pitch and run.

Tough challenge

Tough course. I have buddies who won’t play it. I love it. (Senior with 9 handicap). Like most Nicklaus courses, fairway bunkers near landing areas of fairways, some extra precision needed to hit greens. Plenty of visual scares. But many are only visual. If you tend to drive the ball sideways, have extra balls. Tendency for fog some mornings. But wind ups the difficulty. Range, short area and large putting green all included.. SW Florida golf is very pricey. This is likely worth the little extra you pay compared to flat and unmemorable courses at nearly the same price. Be careful of tee selection so you have a chance to have fun. Note the tee ratings.

Bring bug spray in event of light winds for mosquitoes.

‘‘Tis course is the best we have played in Naples. Fairways, greens perfect. NO homes or condos on course. It felt like we were alone in paradise. Perfect pace of play-we hardly saw any others. Beautiful American flag on course.

Great outing thanks to Golf Now

Because of Golf Now I booked a round for a whole lot less than the rack rate of $195. I was paired with 3 guys from Michigan. All good to play with - no drama. Course is very good layout and a good mixture. Very fair no gimicks. Great range and practice. Rather small pro shop and grill but I didn't come for that. I'd love to return

All you want

Very good golf course, you have to think you're way around it. It's not a bombs away layout, with trouble on every hole and position is more important than length. The greens are tricky, and it would take a while to get used to the undulations.
