Nice course from the proper tees
It was extremely windy the day played and the course played long even from the white tees.
Greens were in good shape although not quick they were true. Overall the course was in nice shape.

Grouped with two other golfers.
Great course. I play several rounds each year when we come down from Canada. Enjoy layout. Greens are true and I like the quickness of the greens. I’ll be playing it several more times while I’m in Bradenton.

Very Enjoyable Place To Play
Played weekday late morning round as a single. Was paired with a twosome. Course was almost empty. Greens slow but pristine and true. Some tee boxes a bit thin. Fairways in OK condition. Sand traps needed to be groomed. Staff (especially Mike in clubhouse) very friendly and accommodating. Recommend this course and look forward to returning soon.

Pristine Conditions, Excellent Staff
Hadn’t played IMG for a while and was very pleasantly surprised at the overall improvement of the course. Greens & traps were top notch. Fairways & tee boxes in good shape. Very friendly and accommodating staff (especially the starter: Tim). And best of all: The place was almost completely empty and we were able to play at our pace without being pushed or held up. Looking forward to playing here again soon.
