Dunedin Golf Club was carved out of citrus groves and was the PGA National Golf Course until 1962. The golf course itself is delightful. From elevation changes to a river that bisects the course, you can just feel the aura of the great golfers who have played here. Bobby Jones, Gene Saraze, Ben Hogan, Sam Snead, Byron Nelson, Paul Runyan to name a few have participated in tournaments here. Dunedin Country Club is located in Dunedin, minutes from the beaches, many restaurants and several top hotel options. Dunedin Golf Club is a Donald Ross creation.

This was the second time playing the course in one week. Over seeding the fairways helped to provide excellent fairway turf. The greens were slower then many in the area but very consistent; which is all you can ask. Water comes into play on many holes and keeps you thinking. The staff and members we played with and met on the practice range were very friendly and upbeat about golf and the course. The pace of play was good........I will be back.

Great track and service

I recently played Dunedin which was in great shape and a challenging layout. I thought that was the best part about it, but, I discovered differently. After my round, I forgot my rangefinder in the cart. Since I did not discover it missing until the next day when I had travelled to Orlando for my final round on my way home to Toronto, Canada, I never thought I would see my $350.00 investment ever again. But No! l immediately called the club and spoke to David Williams in the shop, he confirmed they had my rangefinder. He took my information and said they would happily send it back to me, IN CANADA! I received the rangefinder in the mail about a week later. Th postage alone for returning my rangefinder was over $15.00. This, is what it means to be a golf professional! This level of customer care and service, not just extended to members but day players as well. It would have been far to easy for some to just say if I wanted it I could pick it up or it may have not made it into zThe shop at all. Notat Dunedin. Thank you to all from the person on the back shop who must have found it to David who spoke to me and sent it back to John Falcone, the Head professional who clearly runs a club where this is the customer service ethic is practiced and valued. This exhibits the greatness of golf as truly a game of honour. Thanks.

Demanding, Fun Layout

This course has many nice tree-lined fairways, at least half are doglegs. If you go a little wayward you find yourself in trees but easy to chip out or recover. The course is fair in that it has trees from which you can recover rather than bushed areas or swamp areas like some other courses. There is not much water in play on the course, none on the front nine, maybe 3-4 holes on the back. None the less I seem to find trees on this course more than I like to.

The greens are often protected with good quality bunkers, the greens are in very good condition. Putts roll true.

Overall, it is a challenging and fun course to play.

Waste of time and money..Too Bad

On vacation get a tee time on Tee Off. I get there and the place is packed with people. And they tell me it’s Shotgun and best ball. That I was starting on 6 with 3 other guys. I just came to play a round of golf! Can’t believe these guys post on Tee Off and this is what you paid for. Very unprofessional way to treat customers. I left. Never again will they get anymore of my money.

One of the better courses in the area

Such a great course. Always in at least halfway decent condition. If you ask them beforehand, they will be honest with how you.

Rates aren't awful for the quality of the course. It can get a little difficult (especially on the back), but overall great experience. One of my favorite courses in Central Florida.

Even coming off of renovation two days prior, the course was stellar. Going to be in great condition this summer.

Not great but it is a Ross

Greens are nice and classic Ross. The rest of the course is a basic muni that gets tons of play. Lots of hardpan especially around the greens and most of the course is a very tight lie dead center of fairway.

It is a fun course but conditions at this time of the year should be stellar not like its August. Generally I was disappointed after reading the hype and 4.5 start ratings.

Classic Donald Ross layout for a great price

This course is classic Donald Ross. Small, turtle back greens and the ability to walk off one green and right on to the next tee. An extremely fun layout with difficult holes, but not over punishing to the average amateur. Like most Ross designs, the challenge is around the green. Don't be afraid to putt from 15 yds off the green.

The course itself could use a little work. The greens roll great, but the fairways and rough are a little bare in a few spots. Combine the condition, layout, and price, I could play this course everyday.

Solid Track

Dunedin is by and large a solid course. It's a classic Donald Ross design with Ross' signature elevated greens. The smart way to play the course is to avoid being long or above the whole as all greens would seem to have a back to front pitch with some more severe than others. Perhaps most notably in terms its slope severity is number 11. If you are above the hole on this par 3 expect to have at least a 10ft come backer as you first putt if it doesn't hit the whole. The opening stretch of holes 1-4 is probably the best stretch of holes on the course and great and challenging beginning to your round. If you get past these four with you score and wits intact you are positioning yourself for a good round. Number 1 is a long par 4 measuring 424 yards with a slight dogleg left. Watch out for trees left and OB right. The 2nd is another long par 4 dogleg left,, this one stretching out to 460 yards! Not surprisingly the longest par 4 on the course. I assume in Ross' original design this would have been a par 5 as the course par now is 71. As for the 2nd a large tree down the left with force all but the longest of hitters to aim their tee ball centre right rather than take on the dogleg and risk getting knocked down. The 3rd is an excellent long par 3 with bunkers surrounding the green a sloped green back to front. The 4th is another long par 4 but this time a dog left right. There is a lateral hazard up the left side and trees up the right. One hole I am not a fan of is the par 5 15th. A massive river bisects the hole from the blue tee tucked away to the left it is a awkward angle. The hole seems out of character with the design

All toll good layout and fun to play. I have played the course 3 times over my last two trips to Florida and always enjoyed it. If you are in the area it's a course worth teeing it up at.

a hidden gem

this course really gave the country club feel. the greens were some of the best in central west coast. the fairways were lush, only one bad tee box.great ball washers. no gps on carts though. if you want to play one of the best courses ( besides innisbrook) in this area , don't miss this one. the staff was professional and cordial. the pro shop is in the cart barn building. the club house, bar and restaurant were appropriate for a course of this stature. can't wait to play it again

Walked

dunedin hidde pearl

This course is the best layout in Pinellas coiunty, excluding maybe innisbrook. the greens had been punched a few weeks before but were still in great shape and fast. Fairways were good. As a visitor here from Georgia, I elected to walk with a starting tee time of 12:30- way too late and too hot, so I only played 9 holes. Staff is always friendly

Exciting long course

This course is in very good shape, and is long and challenging. The design is fair, both for beginners and intermediate golfers.. We have had a great time here this week, played the course four times, and the score has been almost exactly the same through four rounds.. We have already started planning our next trip to Dunedin golf club.

Donald Ross Classic

I love playing Donald Ross designed courses. I find them so very well designed with no hidden hazards or bunkers. Dunedin Golf Club does not disappoint.

The traditional raised greens are standard here. Most approach shots call for an extra club because of the raised greens. In classic Ross style, there aren't a ton of forced carries. Everything is straight forward. The doglegs present themselves directly before you. No guess work on which way the holes play.

The greens were in fabulous shape. There were no bare spots at all. The volume of grass on the greens was impressive. The greens rolled very true and they rolled fast! Whenever possible, stay below the pin. The grain on these greens is strong. Putting uphill is much better than putting downhill with the grain. Downhill puts are very speedy!

The fairways on the front 9 were in very good shape. I only noticed one spot on a front nine fairway that needed attention. The same can't be said on the back nine. The fairways need some serious work. The 10th fairway was horrible. Other fairways on the back were better, but a couple need help.

The course overall was fun to play. Ross designs his courses to make the players hit shots. Hit a decent tee ball and you can expect to be rewarded with a good view of the green. Hit a tee ball offline, and you can expect to probably be hitting a recovery shot.

There was no bag staff when I arrived. The golf pro told me I could load my bag on any cart. He also directed me to the starter. The starter, Joe or John, barely looked up from his post. I was playing as a single. He told me I could catch a couple ahead of me and play along if I wanted. He never made any effort to go out to the couple and notify them. He checked my ticket and then he headed into the restaurant. Off I went. I didn't bother the couple ahead of me. I just played my 18 by myself. The couple moved along, but being a single, I had plenty of time to check out the conditions of the tees, fairways, and greens.

The restaurant staff was excellent. The bartender kept my soda filled and took my food order quickly. My chicken wrap was very good. I highly recommend the restaurant for a post round bite to eat and a drink!

I bring 7 friends down to the Tampa area for a weeklong golf outing every fall. While I'd like to bring them to Dunedin Golf Club, the condition of the back nine fairways would disappoint my friends; I hope they get those fairways back in prime shape. Then Dunedin Golf Club would be on our "Must Play List."

Watch oout for the greens

If you can hit the green in regulation then that will not mean you made par. Greens are tricky and break is not always what you think.

Spring break

I was pleasantly surprised by this course. A traditional Donald Ross design with lots of history. Very fair but challenging enou. Greens were in good shape, fairways were good given it is still early in the season. We played in under 4 hours. Very enjoyable and relatively affordable.

Nice course

interesting course, with with fast greens. Definetly recommend it, the only two drawbacks wet the slow, but steady pace of play; the starter was less than friendly delaying my T time 20 minutes while accommodating others with later T times than mine.

The cart lady was very friendly and made the rounds several times, nice specially in a hot day.
