Saltleaf Golf Preserve - The Preserve

Newly redone course excellent staff and clubhouse very quick play had a 2 some and we finished in 3 hours. Course needs to grow out a little but nice layout

Fast greens got a deal time rate so was a good value but at regular prices not worth it yet

Beautiful track in top notch condition! Greens were huge, somewhat firm but that’s to be expected for a new course. Outstanding staff and the starter Steve gave us a great explanation of what to expect, restrooms, and more. In my years of playing I never met a starter this professional and caring! The rest of the staff was great as well. The course is pricey but then so are many others this time of year. This one was in the best condition of the courses I played on a short trip down! Will come back in the future!

Everything about course/clubhouse was nice, but for $350 was expecting more. Nothing really remarkable about it except interesting rivetted faced waste bunkers {good} and fully netted baby {80 yard max) driving range (terrible)

I went as a single and the 3 folks I joined couldn’t have nicer. We all played the Blues and the 6200 length was very fair. It was windy and some par 4’s weren’t’ reachable in 2. I’m not sure that really mattered but it’s a nice excuse 😂 . I never played Raptor Bay but as I was told this is a totally different course. Most of the holes had minimal blind shots with the exception of a few dog legs. There were a few tight landings but all in all very fair. The greens were hard and didn’t hold shots so play short. The greens rolled great and putts were true. Pace of play was 3:50. Staff was very friendly and helpful. I’d definitely play it again!

Great golf course, great staff. The starter, Tony, was extremely helpful and courteous and quickly found me another twosome to join when the threesome I was originally paired with was a no show. The course is challenging, especially in the wind, but fair and the greens are fast and in pristine condition. I will definitely play this course again and highly recommend it to any golfers out there.

Salt leaf preserve is in amazing condition. One of Sw Florida's finest. A course is only as good as its staff and this club has the best!

The course wasn't that bad no sand traps. Layout wasn't bad but the price is off the charts. There was nobody on the course because the how much it cost

Won't play again unless the price comes down quite a bit.

Played Saltleaf, The "REVISED" Raptor Bay yesterday. Point of reference- Raptor Bay was an Audubon site. The environmental beauty, wildlife, and enjoyable golf course were astounding.

The new course has decimated the natural beauty , contour, and visual appeal of Raptor Bay. Despite the marketing, we saw 3 birds- 2 of which were crows.

The course is dull. There are no sand traps. The greens are fast and true, But won't hold an approach shot. On the day we played, 15 mph winds, the pins were tucked in places that one could not access. Monotonous chips to elevated pins.

I understand that this is "new". It will take years for this course to look better, but the look will not improve the quality of the course. Very obvious that they are hoping that the impending high rise/ high cost development next door will generate a group of golfers willing to pay exorbitant fees to play a mediocre track.

Departing messages-(1) the destruction of the natural beauty and environmentally protected area is unconscionable. (2) I'm not unwilling to pay for quality golf. This is the priciest ticked in SW Fl, . Yikes!!
