Nice course

We played The Heights 4 or 5 times while we were staying in Lakeland. We played it later in our stay, and wished we would have started earlier. This winter was very dry down there, and they managed to keep the fairways in decent condition, considering.

Highly recommend it.

The bar/restaurant is very good too. The balcony overlooking the course is very nice.

Great shape for dry season in Florida

Tees, fairways and greens in good shape. Ran into couple of the grounds crew and they said there'd been a 4-ball tourney day before. They were sorry for the greens (4-ball tourney) but I found them to be fine. Starter got me on as a single and I flew around the course. Some pretty views along lakeside holes. Clean bathrooms. Reasonable prices in clubhouse.

Jose, thanks for the feedback and positive comments. The starter position this time of year can be tough as we always try to get everyone out and many times they do not have tee times and we work them in. We stress customer service to our team. We hope to see you soon. Brock Witmyer (GM)

Excellent shape right now!

Cleveland Heights is in great playing shape right now. Our playing partners yesterday said they get the place looking nice before the annual 4 ball tournament. So....get over there but don't book a time after 4 pm - that's my slot.

Thanks for the feedback and nice comments. We have renovated all three courses over the past 4 years. We try to give the best golf experience throughout the year. The difference is that the over seed dies off heading into Spring as temperatures hit the 90's. We hope to see you in the future. Brock Witmyer (GM)

3 Nine Hole Courses, Great Value

I enjoy the layout of this course. Courses A and C are my favorite. 3 courses mean every time you visit it is a different experience. Friendly staff and bar/restaurant is above average for most courses in the area. Hole C3 is my favorite.
