The ninth hole runs only 339 yards, but the dangerous approach must cross a pond. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 03/13/2026
-
Seen from behind the green, a view of the 13th. This par-3 measures 125 yards and plays to an island green. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 03/13/2026
-
Seventeen is a fine driving hole. Off the tee is trouble both right and left, and the fairway narrows after the prime landing zone. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 03/13/2026
-
If one hole is most likely to wreck your card, it is the par-4 18th (index #1), whose large water hazard threatens both the drive and second shot. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 03/13/2026

From fairway eighteen, a view of the green complex at dusk. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 03/13/2026

Judging by its pancake-like shell, this appears to be a Florida softshell turtle, who was traveling cautiously from pond to pond across the eleventh tee. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 03/13/2026
-
A superlative short par-3, the fourth features a raised and well-contoured green. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 02/20/2026
-
At the par-4 tenth, it takes a straight drive to find this narrow fairway. It’s not unusual, though, to find the water. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 02/20/2026
-
Fifteen just may be the finest par-3 at Schalamar. Measuring as long as 224 yards, it demands an excellent shot for a GIR. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 02/20/2026
-
2nd Hole: Par-5, 519 yards: The driving zone allows for a slashing drive off the tee, but on the second shot (viewed here) the fairway narrows like an hourglass. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 02/18/2025
-
6th Hole: Par-3, 180: A lengthy bunker nabs misplayed shots to the right and front of green six, as seen from the woodland. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 02/18/2025
-
9th Hole: Par-4: Although 339 yards, this index 6 hole challenges you on every shot. A hook off the tee spells deep,watery trouble. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 02/18/2025
-
Running as long as 400 yards, the 10th threatens not only with a daunting array of hazards—water, sand, trees, OOB–but also a tight fairway. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 02/18/2025
-
This large pond encircles what is virtually an island green at the par-3, 125 yard thirteenth. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 02/18/2025
-
The # 6-index hole, fourteen features a brilliant design, a trio of well-placed bunkers, and a long, lateral water hazard. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 02/18/2025

Pleasantly surprised
As we drove into the development we fully expected to be playing through their backyards. The course was not that at all! I felt like I was in North Carolina minus the hills. Well kept fairways, greens were in good shape and it was filled with woods and birds! BONUS I got my first hole in one! We will definitely be back,!

Great course, good value!
Course had some very nice shade along the course, adding to the difficulty, but also some relief. My group plays this price range regularly and this is one of the nicest in our range. Golf carts were in great shape too, something that is normally hit and miss at this range.
Staff was super friendly and even met property management, who were immediately interested how much we were enjoying things.

easter sunday at Schalamar golf club
My wife and I golfed at Schalamar this pass sunday. First of all, I am a fan of Ron Garl, the golf architect and his work.. I would think that he is not very happy with what happened to his golf club and the very poor condition that it is in. The greens are just about gone due to poor maintenance and diseased condition. The tee boxes and fairways were in very rough condition. The staff and the clubhouse were excellent as well as the 3 hour play conditions. The front 9 was in the wooded area while the back 9 was through the trailer park homes and very narrow and tight.
