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.

Good muni

Enjoyed playing here. Course is pretty straight without a lot of obstacles although the greens are elevated and protected by more bunkers than most courses in the area.

Greens played fast. I played with a group of 2 guys and we all had trouble getting used to the speed until later on. Fairways were nice to hit off of. There are some holes that hitting to the right of the greens lands you in a large swath of white gravel. Hitting off that stuff will scuff up your clubs.

Enjoyable round. Would play it again sometime.

Good experience but a bit pricey

Rented clubs. $45 was a bit much for the quality of clubs offered.

No surprises

Standard muni course. 3 sets of tees. Tee boxes, greens and sand traps are in decent condition. Fairways had some bare spots. Relatively shorter course 5800 from Whites. 6200 from Blues. Bring a range finder and water. No water on course.

Wonderful Tees and Accurate Quick Greens

Other than a few spotty places in the fairway, the course was in really good condition. I’d play this course again anytime!

The course was in decent shape. However, on the back the women's tees are always 200 yards from the green (par 4's and par 5's). What's up with that?
