Waterlefe Golf & River Club

Understandable low rating on amenities as they are rebuilding the club house

First time playing beautiful course great layout and in good conditions. Pace of play was excellent played under 4hrs staff was helpful and friendly.

The pace of play was extremely slow. Did not see a ranger. 3 hole gap finally had to skip a couple of holes

But the course is still great. Lotsa water and very cool design. Always on my list on a Florida trip. Hope they don’t price themselves out of my budget…getting close now.

I've played this course several times a year for several years. Very challenging but fair. I highly recommend it.

3 hours for the first 9 holes. I quit after 10. The guy did offer a rain check for half off the next golf round there, but I was expecting better from a higher end golf course.

I was told it was cart path only in the AM and that had caused slow play into the afternoon. Slow is not the word to describe it. Mind numbingly slow. No beverage cart and the clubhouse is being renovated. I enjoy this course and have played it many times. As the 9th hole approached the thoughts of suicide were too overwhelming and I abandoned the desire to continue. I'll wait until the snowbirds, that don't mind a 51/2 to 6 hour round of golf return home before I dish out premium $ to play here. My feedback would be that the Ranger keeps the pace of play as a focus. I do recommend you play here given the chance. It was just one of those days I guess.

Course is is in excellent condition and challenging Course. Greens are in great condition. I would recommend it to good golfers

Love playing Waterlefe... Challenging but fair...Greens are rolling true.

Interesting, challenging course. Rock hard greens putt beautifully but don't hold iron shots, especially long irons. Be sure to play the right tee!

Waterlefe is one of my favorite courses in the Bradenton/Sarasota area-challenging and interesting layout in tropical surroundings and wildlife.
