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.

Water water everywhere
Nice course in a subdivision. Lots of water, check the signs on the tee boxes. Lost a ball when I thought there was no water, was I wrong. Fairways are generous.
The only complaint was the practice green was slow. Not so on the course they were fast, until 17 and 18 they were a lot slower.
Nice layout
I really enjoyed this track. From the tees I played, green, the course was challenging but fair. The greens and tee boxes were in great shape. Overall the course was in very good to excellent conditions. The tee box on the range the day I played was pretty chewed up.
I plan on playing it again soon.
Big Cypress South
As always this course is in terrific condition. A couple of the tee boxes need some work, but other than that you couldn't ask for anything more.
No holes are the same
Course was crowded as we were paired up with another 2 some, they were staying on site and have played before so could help us on what to avoid. Some tee boxes were rough from lots of play. Fairways thin but getting greener by the day. Greens were good shape running good pace,some hard as could not find ball mark on some
Fantastic greens
First time playing here and the layout was tight from the back tees but it it was a great experience with fantastic greens that were rolling really fast. Definitely will be back
Very nice layout and ffeatures
Would play it again but I thought the greens were very hard.
Polk County Beauty
The course is always in great condition and the Zoysa greens are fantastic! The courses is always well manicured and the staff is extremely polite and customer service oriented! It’s always a go to for our group! It has multiple tees for all levels. I would describe it as challenging while very fair- with an emphasis on accuracy.
As always this course is in great condition and fun to play. Staff is very friendly and accommodating.
Nice greens
Just dont see this as a 4 star course . Fairways were thin, Tee boxes were worn. Its a fairly tough track, and the greens were in nice shape. If not for the greens this course wouldn't be much.
Big cypress
Well worth the 50 minute drive. Nice layout, course in nice shape, large foursome waved us through
Big Cypress South COurse
Very nice course with a mix of short par fours and a couple of lengthy par fours, par fives all nice, par threes demanding. Greens rolled great at a medium speed, mostly flat, but a few had some slope to them. Cold day here, 50's so no one was one the course, was able to play in 2:30 taking my time. Nice clubhouse and facilities. Good choice for medium length course.
Worth your time
Greens are in great shape and have good speed, very smooth. Overall conditions are very good.
Surprising golf course !
Good layout, not to long but demanding off the back tees.
Last four holes are very nice and pretty hard
Greens were very nice, fairways and tees were ok .
Really good value. Place was very good.
