Pleasantly surprised in conditions

Played San Carlos multiple times and this is the best I’ve seen it. Greens were pure with not many divots and rolled out nicely. Fairways were a bit dry on a few holes but nothing that is not playable. Will be playing again soon.

Nince & Affordable!

The GC is well-maintained and Greens are in decent condition. It's a great country for mid handicap golfers.

A Hidden Gem In Florida

I had the pleasure of playing 18 holes at San Carlos Golf Club down in Florida, and I have to say—it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. This course truly captures the essence of Florida golf: lush greenery, great weather, and a layout that’s both challenging and fun for all skill levels.

The course is beautifully maintained, with fairways in excellent shape and greens that rolled true and fast. Each hole had its own character, with a nice variety of doglegs, water hazards, and bunkers that kept things interesting without being punishing. Whether you’re a seasoned golfer or just out for a relaxed round, San Carlos has something for everyone.

What really stood out was the atmosphere. It wasn’t overly crowded, the pace of play was just right, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. The clubhouse is low-key but well-equipped, and the practice facilities were a great bonus before hitting the first tee.

All in all, San Carlos Golf Club is a hidden gem that offers a high-quality golf experience at a fair price. I’d absolutely recommend it to locals and visitors alike. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Wide Open..

Course was great for average to moderate golfers as wide fairways and areas to bail out. Pace of play good once got thru the ladies league who struggled on some longer holes. Would play again for sure. Twin Peaks around the corner, just saying...

Pretty Good Shape

Greens were in great shape. The wind definitely admffected them, some very slow, others very fast. It was just nice getting out there in 70 degree weather. We waited on every hole, but still finished in 4 hours.
