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.

Tee time meant nothing

Despite our reservation 4 groups went off in between our scheduled tee time and when we actually teed off. When we finally started 40 minutes late we were paired with an older couple who, though very nice, had to hit 3-4 shots per out every one. Horrible pace of play and tremendous waste of money. Wanted to walk off several times

Staff no show

I had 2, Dec 28th, 8 o'clock tee times for Clearwater. Weather was a little drizzly but not bad enough that I wouldn't go out.. We arrived at the course at 7:40; 20 min. before our tee time, only to find the whole facility locked down. No staff on sight! We waited about 45 minutes and still no staff. Finally around 8:20 I deciding to call Golfnow/Tee off.com to cancel my 2 Tee times. This wasn't the easiest task either. I had difficulty reaching a human assistant to deal with a cancellation. Upon reaching somebody I was put on hold while they apparently tried to call the course to confirm nobody was there. After several minutes on hold the attendant came back online and told me they couldn't reach anybody at the course. No kidding I had just told them there was nobody there. Hoping that I get credit or refund for the 2 tee times that were booked.

Great value

Fun little course that is usually in good shape for the price. It can be slow during season, as are pretty much all the courses around here.

Lots of streets around the perimeter

I'll be careful when driving by the course now that I see how easy drives can end up on the street for less experienced golfers. Once you can straighten out your drive, the course plays great.
