Par 72
Length 6396 yards
Slope 120
Rating 70.7

Carved from pine, oak, and magnolia trees, Cypress Lakes Golf Club tumbles through gently hilly terrain, a rare landscape for a Florida course. Formerly known as the Solutia Golf Club, Cypress Lakes is also covered with hundreds of crepe myrtles and blooming azaleas and of course, cypress trees. Water comes into play on a few holes and the trees can prove to be tricky but the challenges of the golf course are balanced with the generous width of the fairways. The course's playability appeals to a variety of different skill levels, especially with four sets of tees available as well. In addition to the course, there are also extensive practice facilities available at Cypress Lakes Golf Club including an all-grass driving range, a practice putting green, and a practice bunker.

Just Ok

The course was in decent shape and had a few challenging holes, but overall was lacking appeal. The price is slightly higher than other area course that are overall better. Nothing negative, but nothing more than meh.

Greens a little rough

Perhaps greens are suffering dry weather effects. More than one had evidence of a heavy tracked vehicle having driven over it leaving annoying ridges...had to guess where the putt might end up!

Save your money, play a nicer track

Players are inhospitable, the staff let’s the course run itself, and we will not be coming back after our most recent outing.

There are 3-4 clubs in the area that are a better bang for the buck. I.E. Highmeadow and Fish Creek

Great greens

I would put the greens at Cypress Lakes up against any area course right now.They roll smooth, good speed, and putt true. The biggest thing this course needs is to rework their cart paths.

Mixed feelings

Arrived and the first tee was slammed. Got off on time, placed was packed and it was interesting. 4 some in front of us with a toddler running all over the course. Played through an 8 some, yes an 8 some. Many blue jeans and t-shirts with some interesting music blasting. I feel like the course has some ho-hum holes and some really nicely laid out holes, greens were hard but putted pretty well. Had two old geezers just walk on right in front of us turning from 15 to 16 and they were slow and inconsiderate. What I am writing is why my title is mixed feelings. I wouldn't drive 70 miles again to play it, if I lived in the neighborhood and wanted to play okay.. Ultimately you have to decide, I would rate this as a neighborhood parkland municipal golf course 90% local play. 7/10.

Hello, thank you for taking the time to review the course. We would like to apologize for the delay of play during your round. This is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. With the current uncharacteristic conditions, we work hard to accommodate everyone who comes out to visit our course and allow our guests the chance to complete their rounds. With that in mind, we are working to best control pace of play and allow everyone to finish in a reasonable amount of time. As always, we will continue to look for ways to improve and use your guidance to do so. Thank you for playing Cypress Lakes Golf Club. We hope you'll come back to join us again soon.

Good conditions

Small, elevated greens make ball striking a premium at this course. The greens were deceptively fast making for a challenging day. The course is in good condition and the rates make this a good local value.

Play away

Played a leisurely round with 2 friends

Gave us each a cart due to present world conditions

Made the round go faster I like this!

Staff very friendly and accommodating

Course in good shape overall. Tee boxes need a little work but not horrible

Course is simple yet challenging with elevation changes and some fun risk reward holes

We had a nice day !

A pleasant respite from sitting home waiting the virus out

Thanks for staying open it’s greatly appreciated

We drove an hour to play here and it was worth it

Play away

Love the course, not the walkers.

I’ve always liked this course, but I cut my round short after 9 holes because of two groups of players who were walking the course and not letting anyone play through. I think that people who want to walk should have to tee off before 10 AM so they can be out of the way in the afternoon. This is by only complaint about this course. There’s no one to force walking players to get out of the way. It’s not fun to sit at every shot for 5 minutes while walkers take 2 1/2 hours to play 9 holes. There’s no reason to allow people to walk the course during prime playing hours unless the management team is going to force them to allow faster players to play through.

Cypress Lakes surprise

I was very pleasantly surprised at the excellent condition of the course and my ability to team up with a gentleman who was not only a great golfer but had all the course knowledge. The greens are tricky as there is plenty of slope. I consider the $15 green fee with cart including convenience fees a bargain. This is a course that can challenge all players.

Wet course

This is the second time playing this course. The first time was the day following a.huge rain and it was a lake. This time there were 2 full days in between the rain and it was still muddy in low spots. That being said it is not too bad of a course.

Mud hole

I'm played this course about 3 years ago and I was in horrible condition was convince that many improvements have been made and courses in great condition, WRONG!

It was a mud hole back then and it still is very disappointed in Pace of play conditions of the fairways were just wet everywhere had a hard time finding a place to place my ball where I wasn't standing in water horrible horrible conditions yes it was cheap but the reports were wrong totally wrong would not recommend this question my worst enemy will never play this face again should be taken off of GolfNow they need to send a representative out there to check discourse probably the worst course for draining of water I've ever seen. Thanks for wasting my time!
