Big Cypress Golf Club is home to two golf courses, the championship South Course and the executive North Course. Located in Lakeland, Big Cypress is situated between Orlando and Tampa. The courses are part of a gated retirement community called Cypress Lakes. The North is less challenging and offers a gentler version of the South that is more approachable to beginners. It is a fairly narrow layout that features tree-lined fairways and strategically placed sand bunkers. Water also has a strong presence on the course, coming into play on a total of 12 holes. The layout is player-friendly and offers several risk-reward opportunities. It is a great for beginners and more advanced players will enjoy it for a quick round or a warm-up for the South Course. In addition to the two golf courses, there is also a driving range and putting green.

Par 3 course

BIG CYPRUS NORTH turns out to be a course with 17 par 3's - not what the name suggests and not worth driving an hour to play. I have complained to golf caddy as they should make this clear. The lady at the professional shop was also not pleasant

Similar in quality to Stonegate Cypress GC, Orange Lake Reserve GC, & West Orange G&CC.

Big Cypress Golf Club - South Course. 1:15 tee time w/ 2 buddies for $20.33/ea Hot Deal tee time. Private course in subdivision setting. Mostly tree lined holes but with wide landing areas. Haven't played it in 7-8 years & new owners have brought quality of course up nicely. Tee boxes & fairways are plush. Large elevated greens roll fast & true. Nice Pro Shop w/ good amount of merchandise. Also w/ a nice good sized 19th hole. Battery powered carts w/ windshield & rain cover in back.

Iron Practice

If you need to practice your iron play and short game this is your course. Bunch of par 3s and a few par 4s sprinkled. The greens where in pretty good conditions as were overall course. Great and calming scenery with plenty of wildlife. Not crowded so play at own pace. And seen a 10 foot gator. That's amazing for a guy who grew up in Chicago. Overall enjoyed the course and my short game got sharper.

Nice Warm Up Course

My husband and I are snowbirds and we start on this moderate challenging executive course before tackling a championship course. Very well kept course and we always enjoy playing it.
