The Preserve Golf Club

Course layout nice fairways and greens were spotty

tee time was over 1/2 hour late as they had no

carts available and the course was vastly overabooked

Good price for AM golf for snowbird season but greens need a lot of tlc

Went yesterday. I had a 1:31 tee time. There we no carts. People waiting since 12:30. Took 45 minutes past tee time to get get a cart. Course was like a bomb hit it. They used sand to patch holes all over each green. Like one foot by one foot or more. Could not even put. Left after nine which took almost 3 hours….

I had a 1205 tee time. When I got to the 1st tee, no starter, the cart was there but no person. At the 1st tee there was 8 carts full of golfers. A group of 24 seniors playing best ball.

I went back to the pro shop and asked what was going on . A dumbfounded look by the staff.

Went downhill from there.

Dog patch!!

STAY AWAY

I have played this course 60 to 70 times in the past. It was never great but acceptable at the price. It is now the worst course I've played in 60 years of golf.

This golf course has the potential to be a great golf course. Burnt out greens with sand to replace the grass. The owners could spend alittle more energy to upgrade the gold course

The Staff I found to be very friendly unfortunately for them ownership should just shut it down. The whole course is in terrible shape I am still having a hard time understanding how anyone could take such a great layout and totally ignore taking care of it. Only one green out of eighteen had grass the fairways are weeds The general manager and owners should be ashamed of themselves They can’t have a greens keeper because there is no grass to cut .

They would have to pay me to play this course.again Greens terrible. Fairways barely playable. Very narrow and layup areas very narrow . Good place for a goat ranch as that is what it is

Greens are ruined. Birds, crickets and others have destroyed the greens. The upkeep of the entire course has made Tara Preserve a miserable experience. It is worth less than $20 to play.

My partner and I have played this course once a week for the last two years, and he has gotten worse. Every time we play that all of the greens were torn up by either moles, or birds, and it’s obvious that the greens were not taken care of to prevent bugs and moles, from being there this was an atrocity I’ve never seen Greene’s so bad I really wanted to ask for my money back but I knew I wouldn’t gonna get any so I thought I’d leave a very bad review and maybe someone will do something about it. We are a long time Sarasota residence since 1985 and have never seen a worse greens than what we played on Tuesday. please do something about the greens and make this course favorable again it used to be one of our favorite now we just hope we can get through around without falling through the holes in the greens

Greens are filled with holes, bunker like sand holes on greens, it’s obvious this course is not being taken care of and does not warrant returning to. Too many other courses in area that cost the same or less that are maintained.
