Slope 137
Rating 72.6
Spanish Wells Golf & Country Club in Bonita Springs offers tennis and bocce courts, a fitness center, and 27 of the most picturesque holes in southwest Florida. The holes are divided into three nines: the North, South, and East; that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The East/North Course combines the longest nine and the shortest nine. Towering pines and palms as well as mature oak trees cover the entire course. Almost just as abundant is the water, which makes an appearance on almost all of the club's holes. The golf course begins with one of the few holes at the club where water doesn't come into play. Although trees line both sides of the fairway on this dogleg right par 4, the landing area off the tee is generous.

Good Time in spite of threesome bailing
I enjoyed my time being paired with a young man named John. However, we were behind a slow foursome and could have started before them. The story is the threesome I was supposed to play with got their a few minutes before me and told the Starter they did not want to wait for me as they didn't know me. Thus they started at least two groups before our scheduled time and John and I had to play behind two other slow fourseomes.
Very rude!

Very nice course...but
Some sections of the fairways were cut too short and as a result burned out. Hitting off of dead grass is just hitting off of dirt. Too bad.. Liked 90% of the course.
