Clearwater Country Club
About
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.

Fun day
Fun day. Greens were slow but in very good shape.
This course was in better shape than the nearby, superiorly-designed Chi Chi Rodriguez course we played the next day Clearwater CC has some fun and interesting challenges, nonetheless.
We snowbirds will return to play it again next year!
The course is in good shape.
The Sunday pace of play teeing off after 1:00 pm was very slow. However, the course offers great value for the Clearwater area. It's in very good shape. Some holes are just a basic back and forth. Others offer interesting challenges. The greens are a bit slow, but they are mostly terrifically consistent. We will play here again plenty of times.
Great day at CCC
The course is very green and in good condition. The greens were slow, perhaps due to the rain the previous day. My only complaint is the greens were a bit bumpy in spots. We like golfing here because of its good conditions and very good value.
It took five and half hours to play the course. Had to wait on every shot.
Tough Course
Fast greens. Need to be able to play target golf. Bridge need to be repaired.
Restaurant
Overall course was good only thing restaurant closed to early
Beyond slow. FIVESOMES
We were behind 8 consecutive fivesomes. I really don’t need to say much more. There were a lot of things I would have enjoyed about this old course but that is something that should never happen. Unfortunately will never be back. Played front 9 in 3 hrs and left
Overprice
Course in bad condition overall - rough, fairways, greens, and cart paths. This is a municipal course. It is overpriced for $75, $30 would be fair.
