Beautiful Course

The course conditions were great. It’s a beautiful course that is tough enough to be challenging, but not too hard to manage. The fairways are pretty wide with hazards placed throughout.

Fantastic Course

My dad and I played this course for the first time, and couldn’t have had a better time. The entire property was perfectly maintained, and the staff was so friendly. We had a great time on the course. My dad even hit a hole-in-one on the par 3 10th hole! It was a beautiful course and we WILL be back soon.

Fantastic Experience

Salt Leaf was an incredible experience. The staff was super kind from the pro shop to the starter. The course was immaculate, a fantastic layout, and a beautiful piece of property. I could not have asked for a better golf day. Thank you so much to both the staff and the maintenance crew who prepare the grounds.

Best umin SW Florida

Saltleaf is easily as good as courses like Tiburon and Bear Paw, only difference being that you don't need to remortgage your house or sell a kidney just to pay for a round.

Greens dusted with Sand - no real stand out holes

For my $99 2pm tee rate -was left bored and disappointed with this Floyd design - I know it's a relative new layout but golf without green side bunkers takes away the vista

First time for me

I enjoyed the course. Great condition with a couple of memorable short par 4s. Great that it was on Golf Now as many area courses are not.

A course you need to play more than once because we made mistakes a few times because we didn't understand the cart picture of the hole

Saltleaf

I played this location a few years ago when it was Raptor Bay. The course has a completely different layout from then. The course is in great condition and the greens were fast. The staff was very friendly and the starter was very helpful with tips about the course.
