Old Corkscrew Golf Club

Great course. Lots of fun. Fabulous layout. Hard but fair. Could. It have had better day.

I played this course on a windy day, and it was a very punishing golf course. Very well designed and makes you think about every shot. Favors ball-striking much more than length, but the tips at 7400 yards will make anybody a sad boi. The greens are fast and undulated, and tough pin positions made some two-putts from the center of the green a difficult task. Pace of play was as expected for their peak season. I would not recommend this course to very casual players because of the difficulty and price, but a fantastic course for more experienced players.

Great course layout. Makes you think off the tee. More hills and undulations than most FL courses. Played Tiboron the previous day and thought Old Corkscrew was more interesting

1ST time playing this course. As we rolled up the gentlemen who took our clubs asked if we had ever played the course. We told him no..his response..Oh Boy..with a grin. We then proceeded to go in to pay, again we were asked if we had ever played the course..and again the response was Oh Boy..now wondering if we were gonna get beat up we just chuckled. Once we got on the course, we enjoyed ourselves on every hole with every shot. Fun, challenging and one of the best I have played in the area. I recommend this Golf Course to anyone. We will be back this October to play another round. Looking forward to beating last years score.

Played the blue tees 6600 yard plays far longer tough pins on small greens. Hit good shots would run off the fast greens. Scored poor but great course. Going back tomorrow for redemption.

One of the most memorable rounds of golf I've ever had. A spectacular golf course carved out of a beautiful piece of land. I'd go so far as to call it a golfer's paradise. The absence of residential homes makes it that much more enjoyable. This course has been on my list for over a decade and I'm glad I've finally been able to play there. I hope to return soon.

This course is very tough and makes every shot difficult. Love this course and go back every year. This year is seemed like we waited on every tee though which is not great but great course.

This will now be a mandatory stop during my Ft. Myers trips from now on. Very challenging, but fair golf course for all levels. Course was in great shape and the staff was very friendly. Spend a few extra bucks and play the nicest course in the Ft. Myers area!

I play this course every year when I’m down here and it never gets any easier. Very challenging course but a must play if you’re in the area, unlike any course around.

If you get a chance to visit southwest Florida - Naples/Ft Myers area, put this course on your must play list. I'm a Florida native and everything about this course reminds me of the way Florida was when I grew up here 63 years ago. Tall pines, palmettos and ponds throughout without any homes or condos built on or around the course makes this an authentic Florida experience. Jack threw in a number of challenges but honestly, this is a course much like Pebble Beach - who cares what you shoot; enjoy the day and this beautiful setting. Of course you want your partner to buy lunch but you really won't care about that score as much as you remember the incredible views and course layout...well done Jack and those who now maintain it!

A great experience from the moment you arrive at the bag drop until you leave. Reception at bag drop is efficient and friendly. Pro shop staff greet you with genuine professional style. The practice area is top notch and every starter I’ve met have been engaging and accommodating. I’ve played here for seven years and can honestly say the experience is better then what I see at my club back home. The conditions a are second to none. The course layout and condition will give you all the test you’ll need. It tests every aspect of your game and will expose any weakness. Do everyone a favor and play the tees appropriate to your skill. Be prepared to be humbled!!

This course never fails to deliver an experience worthy of your time. Just remember this “Tony Jacklin is the only person, Jack ever “gave” a putt to”!

Carved through Pines: what looks like a flat piece of land, laid out for an Orange grove; has been transformed by “The Jack Nicklaus”, into an innocuous encounter with victory or terror at every mis-hit.

But, what else would you want? Never too much trouble for the careful golfer, but disaster for the adventurous mis-hit.

The greens are quick and sweeping, but very fair. Come up short and Jack isn’t impressed. Most greens have been designed to revoke a short shot.

Oh great: a short par 4. Remember: Jack built it.

Worth every $$ you spend.

Clubhouse is minute, but welcoming, as are the staff. After 1pm: Worth asking if the back nine is clearer. Might be quicker to play it 10-18 1-9?

Practice facilities are wonderful: DR, CG, PG & BK.

1/2way pickup availability via cart Wi-Fi.

This IS the hidden GEM of SWFL.

No, I’m not employed or sponsored by them. I live in the UK, but have family in SWFL.

Lovely place. Beautiful golf course with nice collection of holes and excellent greens. Would enjoy playing again.
