South Course at Big Cypress Golf & Country Club
Rating Snapshot
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.

Bad greens
The condition of the greens really affected putting and we were unaware of the aerification. Perhaps prices should be lower under those conditions, still,is one of my favorite courses
Amazing
Wanted to try this course as it's in the middle of my nephew and I and I'm so glad I chose it. Woke up to the thunderstorms and pouring rain and was a bit concerned it would be flooded out but the rain stopped by the time we teed off. It was cart path only for the first part of our round and we were the only ones on the course so had no one rushing us and we weren't waiting on anyone. Even with all the rain the course was in amazing condition and I have now found my all time favorite greens. These greens almost felt like you were putting on a mini golf course and were incredible and true. I live in Orlando and love the courses up here, especially Disney, but I think I have found a very high favorite of mine.
Club house & start very very courteous peoples please pay them well there’re a bonus for your business.
Best public course
I've been playing this course for years and still love it.I would play it more often, but my retirement check doesn't allow me to do it. I'll recommend it to all.
Starter
Your starter have a great people person personality it was a pleasure conversing with him.
Great Course
Well kept facilities & course keep up the good work.
Great place
I always like to play here, specially in summer, when is less crowded.
.
Great course as always
We were paired up with a gentleman from N Tampa and he had never played Big Cypress . I told him he was in for a treat. BC is my favorite course so far in Florida. The gentleman from NT said he pays double what BC charges and the courses are maybe half as nice. Once again BC was exceptional.
Would Play Again
They didn't have my reservation at gate, or clubhouse. Was supposed to be paired with others, ended up by myself, which is fine. They let two foursomes go ahead of me while waiting on pairing. Those groups never let me pass. I typically play 18 in less than 1.5 hours, closer to 1 if by myself. Front 9 took 2.5 hours. Played the back nine after I passed them at the turn in about an 45 minutes thanks to a couple others letting me tee off with them, finishing the hole and moving on.
Largest gator ive ever seen on the front 9.
For the course, greens were in great shape compared to others I have seen lately. Sand was raked and high quality. Tee boxes and fairways were better than average as well.
Never disappoints
Excellent as always. Greens roll true and are in great condition. Fairways are in the best condition around considering the lack of rain this time of year. There are a few somewhat rough tee boxes, but again, time of year, and they are still very playable. I have paid a lot more and gotten a lot less recently at other places. This course is very score-able and a ton of fun. If you are playing for the first time and actually “need” to know yardages, bring GPS or Laser…..it will further enhance your experience. And most importantly, play bad fast for everyone’s sake!
Tap your putts
Played last year and returned to South course foe an excellent time. Played twice in the week here. Greens are very fast and greens can be challenging depending on your ball position on green. Some challenging holes but an overall excellent time. Can't wait to come back in October. This course is a must play.
Good course to play
Great course. One of the best course in central fl.
Excellent course
Great fun to play
Definitely back next year
