South Course at Big Cypress Golf & Country Club
About
Big Cypress Golf Club is part of a gated golf retirement community called Cypress Lakes. Conveniently located between Orlando and Tampa, the club offers two golf courses, the North and the South. The South Course is a championship layout that is more challenging than the executive-length North Course. Both courses are characterized by the abundance of water and swaying palms, offering the best of Florida golf. The South Course plays a long 6,680 yards from the back tees. The course presents a more demanding test than the North, appealing to more advanced players. Florida Golfer and Senior Golfer have recognized its challenging layout for its excellent conditions and design. Maintenance is a top priority at Big Cypress; on both courses the well manicured fairways and greens are consistently in good shape.

The course was in perfect condition
The course was beautiful. I would’ve love a ranger on the course because I had a threesome in front of me as a single and they played very slow and didn’t allow a play through.
Hot Hot Hot
The course was in great shape but the greens were a little slow to be expected this time of year.
Course is awesome
My son and I played 18 holes and the fairways were in excellent condition and the greens were so green. We will be playing again
Very good golf course. Well maintained. Very good fairways and very good greens
Great day on the course
Pace of play was excellent! Greens were punched a couple of weeks before, but still rolled nicely! Shape of the course was excellent. Overall a great day. Challenging course!
Unfortunate
Have played the course many times, would normally describe it as a great value, with friendly staff. Unfortunately, the greens were punched and sanded making putting irrelevant, and we interacted with the most unfriendly course attendant (Jeff). Jeff viewed his job more as a secret service agent (same facial expressions) than guest services - very out of character for this course. Wish we would have known about the greens and hope we never meet Jeff again.
Always good
Greens aerated but outside of that it’s I’m good shape as usual . I’m a few weeks it should be mint
Great course
The staff was a little confused once we arrived. No fault of their own a computer issues wasn’t allowing them to view tee times. We didn’t get notified the greens had been punched so it was a surprise when we got on the course. Great layout with excellent fairways. Once the greens fill back in it will be a great course to play. We will be back!
One of the BEST
Great conditions, especially compared to other area courses. Green were excellent and fast. This is one of my favorite places to play. Could play ball down and a very good track. Highly recommended. Play mid-afternoon and no one else on course had the place to ourselves. Will return as had been a few years for me. May look to move there.
Fun course and good value
Course was in good shape, especially the greens. Good layout. Would play again.
Grass grest
Tees, fairways and especially greens were green with grass. Greens were very smooth and fast.
No patches of ingrowth grasses. Great all around
Hidden Gem
I had never heard of Big Cypress until I noticed it on GolfNow. I live in Tampa so it was a 50 minute drive to the course but well worth it. The greens and fairways were in fantastic condition. The course is a good test, especially if you have never played it before. Several of the holes I will play differently next time.
Old Hoosiers
Staff first class ! Start was extremely nice and helpful. My wife and I really enjoyed are round course was great
