Located just minutes from the beach, the conveniently situated Clearwater Country Club sprawls across a coastal landscape of Spanish moss-draped trees and towering, mature oaks. Stevenson Creek meanders through the golf course, coming into play on six holes. Built in 1920, the layout has a traditional design that is challenging but fair. The course is tight but it plays long, especially on the par 5s. The rolling fairways are well manicured and the greens play at medium speed and are consistently well maintained. Clearwater C.C. actually has a reputation amongst locals for its superb conditions. It is also popular with visitors, snowbirds specifically, since the club offers the area's only seasonal and short-season membership with exclusive privileges. It is also one of the few clubs in the area that allows walking.

Convenient course close to the beach

Other than the course construction with one hole completely shut down and par 4’s turned into par 3’s it wasn’t to bad. Tee box locations are dangerous being so close together but what was playable wasn’t to bad. If visiting again and once done with course construction I’d try it again.

Bad Shape

We were not told that there were temporary greens when we booked. Some par 4 holes had been temporarily made short par 3 holes and the course was just in terrible shape. I was embarrassed that I booked for 4 people and did not know this.

Go elsewhere

Course was a dump. Pace of play was okay but course under construction so couldn’t play 2 holes. Rental clubs are $45 and the clubs are about 45 years old. Overall horrible value and wouldn’t recommend.

CCC

Awful conditions - some greens had softball sized craters, fairways looked abysmal, and very inconsistent greens. The starter was gone all day and pace was terrible - the ‘rangers’ were 18 year old kids aimlessly driving golf carts around.

Clearwater CC rain check ?

Played fours holes. Waited out rain for 45 min. Course closed and would issue rain check. Rest of the afternoon was hot and sunny. Ok with closing course by why no rain checks.

Greens recently punched but grip n rip. Don't complain about the rough, golf's not supposed to be easy hit the fairway.

Decent course needs a marshall

Pace was awful. Lost 2 at the turn and luckily the slow group let us play through with 2 holes wide open in front of them. Ranger could have solved it really quick.

No JD!

This was the first time I've played here since April.

The greens were in great shape and rolled nicely. (of course, it didn't help my putting, Lol), and the fairways were good, too, thanks to the recent rain.

I had a couple of Golf Buddies from Houston play, and they enjoyed the round.

I'll be back!
