Located less than an hour from Tampa and Orlando, LakeSide Golf & Country Club in Inverness has a unique and scenic setting with four holes that play around an abandoned phosphate mine. The challenging layout will test you with long par 5s and a slew of doglegs. Unlike some of the flatter, marshier golf courses you'll find throughout Florida, this layout has rolling, wide open fairways and large, undulating greens. Be prepared for more than 50 strategically placed bunkers lurking along the greens in addition to well placed smatterings of tall oaks and pines. The rough can also be very punishing if you're errant. There are some challenging holes but it's not overly daunting; beginners and casual golfers will still enjoy the golf course. There is also a driving range available at LakeSide Golf & Country Club.

Been a while since I've been back to the course I remember it was challenging then and it's still challenging but overall the greens were in good shape and fairways had some rye in them little bear and some spots but typical of coming out of a cold water this year. Staff was very pleasant very friendly starter very nice got us out a few minutes ahead of time and the other guys that we were paired with were very nice very friendly guys enjoyed the outing and we will definitely be back that's for sure the greens were in great shape road smooth but just a typical good old Florida golf course. We will definitely be back to play very soon.

good value

This course is in tough conditions with lots of fairway areas short on grass. But this is very common on many courses in this area of Florida (upland sandy soils). There are many courses within 40 miles that are much better conditions but for 3 times the price. I am more than happy to play here, many holes are quite challenging and the greens are fine.

Great value

The course is a good to great value for $28 - $32. Both greens and fairways are in decent condition. As long as their price point remains, we will be there on a near weekly basis.

Good value

Got right off and played in 3 1/2 hours even tho it was crowded. Everything was cut very good, tees weren't too level and had some bare areas and greens very fast an also had bare areas . Wind blew Spanish moss and leaves on the rough and fairways and made finding your ball alittle tough . Worth the $20 green fee to get out and practice but watch out for deep cavens and the pond on 11 in the middle of the fairway

Greatly improved

This course has shown great improvement, and very quickly, compared to other courses in the area. They definitely need to keep their greens superintendent. Bravo

Coming along nicely

The grounds staff appears to be working to improve conditions. I just hope they can keep it up, particularly thru the summer. Right now conditions are playable, especially for the rate on GolfNow. Good luck.

Sweet play

Continues its cycle of improving. They have worked hard on this course. There is still room for improvement. But bang for the buck is amazing here.
