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.

A Gem
First time playing here despite 20 years of Orlando trips.
Excellent course in great condition. Greens are very true and speedy.
Layout is tight in places which is a great contrast to some courses in the area.
Highly recommended
Great value and worth the trip
First time playing Big Cypress. Drove 40minutes to the course and well worth the trip! All the staff I interacted with were incredibly friendly and the course itself was great. Course condition was great and especially the greens… the greens were dang near perfect condition. I played early and there was hardly a ball mark in sight on the greens. I will definitely be back. Highly recommend!
Greens were in fantastic shape. Fairways were wonderful. Had a great time and enjoyed a great meal afterward in the clubhouse . Can’t wait to play there again.
Enjoyable round ,
Greens were in great shape
Great value
Definitely would return to play again
The drive is worth it!
First time playing the course, it was about an hour drive from South Tampa but one I’ll be making again! Great value, great condition, only about 6500 from the tips but still a great course overall!
Worth The Drive
We always enjoy playing Big Cypress. Even though there are a significant number of residents/members here, we have always felt welcome, unlike many other semi-private courses where the members see you as an intruder. The course overall was in excellent condition, which we have come to expect. We will continue to play here from time to time if tee times remain available.
Fantastic greens and great conditions
Have played here many times over the years. The greens were one of the best I have played this year. Fast, smooth and immaculate. Got rained out after 9 but really nice condition.
Really nice course, but it’s “cart path only” these days
Love playing this course, great layout. All in good condition, but it was “cart path only”, which is a bit annoying and it would have been nice to know before you book/buy tee time though GolfNow. If I knew, I would have waited a couple of days.
Excellent layout
Really nice course and layout. Did not see anyone else out there playing in 97 degree heat. Greens were a tad bit slow probably so they did not get burned from the heat. My son and I really enjoyed our day.
Good for the money
This course is located in a 55+ community. The guy in the pro shop was slightly rude while checking in. I am under 30 and look even younger, I’m sure he is unpleasant with all outsiders. Threatened to kick us off the course if we didn’t abide by 90 degree rule before anything. The starter on the other hand was super nice and was able to lend a few tips about the course. The whole course was in great condition for the price paid. Tees and greens were like carpet. The greens were a little slow but rolled straight. Layout was good and I would come back again from orlando area. Played from the blacks 6600 and shot 79. 1st time playing here
