North Golf Course at Big Cypress Golf & Country Club
Rating Snapshot
About
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.

Booking
I booked the South course but they didn't have any openings. I would like a refund for my $3.00.
Great shape
Really good shape tons of gators out too. Greens rolled very good and fairways are near perfect. Check in was a breeze. Course was fairly busy, nice to see such a great executive course getting some play. Try this one.
Grand Cypress North course
Grand Cypress has 2 courses - a north and a south course. We played the North course which is an executive style course with mostly Par 3’s and no par 5’s. It is 18! Holes and still gives you a reasonably challenging experience. The greens were in good shape as were the fairways. One thing to note is is that it is a little it of a cart drive through the neighborhood to get to the first tee, and could use more signage to get there and back again as well as getting to the next hole in a few situations.
Great Short Course
great short course I take my wife to the short courses in the area because she is just started playing golf and doesnt hit the ball to far She really llikes this course
Accuracy
Short but you need to be accurate. Greens in good condition although a little slower than average.
Buds rebiew
Nice executive 18 to work on your short game. Course in good shape. Greens excellent. Fun experience
Great executive course
In great shape tee to green. Lots of nature to look at. Love this place.
Fun course
Second time on this course. Enjoyed both times. Short course with good challenges. Will look forward to playing it again when I am in the area next month.
Wet conditions
If it has rained, do not go. The driving range was closed and the course was very wet. Even though it hasnt rained in 2 days, it was very soggy and wet.
Been a while
We haven’t played here in over a year obviously with everything going on in the world. New greens are very nice, rolled well, a smidge on the slow side but absolutely fine and held perfectly. Just about everything was in perfect shape. The service here has always been very good, today the same very good. Not real busy on the north course, great place to take your time and work on your wedges and short game. Lots of nature to distract you as well. Go play!
I played the exsecutive course and it was very challenging and fun there is another course the south course (championship) course looked even bette can't wait to play that one. Fantastic grounds had a blast. Loved it.
It is all irons
If you are looking to sharpen your short game this is good place. Frankly so easy is boring, but it's in great condition. The restaurant is absolutely pitiful, today they only had 4 options to eat & the food was horrible. Bring your own snack.
Should have known better
I was looking for some place new to take my wife her first time out this year and not have to spend all day. So after reading the review I thought well let give it a shot reviews said Best Executive Course around well obviously by the Title of this review that in my humble opinion is not the case it’s average at best. I will not be returning and if I wanna play a Good executive course there is one in Auburndale, Fl I feel is much better all around The Hamptons Golf & Country Club. But as I said just my humble opinion.
