The Club at Venetian Bay is part of a unique residential community with a Mediterranean theme. Colorful buildings, mosaics, and Mediterranean vegetation surround the championship golf course. The biggest challenge for the designers was transforming what was formerly a cow pasture into a lush, challenging course. The design team of Clifton, Ezell, and Clifton seemed to have little trouble doing so. The front nine plays through the woods while the back nine is more open with a few links-style touches. The most prominent feature of this golf course is the abundance of sand bunkers. There are more than 100 strategically placed throughout. The bunkers present a formidable test but they are nicely balanced with ample landing areas. They are also geared more towards low handicappers, which means they aren't intended to kill your round.

Venetian Bay

Great experience as usual. Although pulled up early to hit range. Not available due to recent heavy rain, all good.

If you haven't played here, you should know, they bring your cart to you in parking lot. This gentleman can give you up to date info.

On top of that awesome service, there's also a competent Marshall that keeps a good flow. Course was a bit wet this last time but always a great experience all around.

The crew keeps a tight ship but not overbearing.

Carts also have screens linked for yardage and Bluetooth.

All in all, the best course/ experience you'll find if you're local.

Great bang for the buck!!!

Nice fairways, nice greens don't have awkward deviations like other courses do that are only $10 cheaper. Carts go at good pace, food is great and easy to order on the course thanks to the gps the cart is equipped with!

Hidden Gem in New Smyrna

The course was in excellent shape tee to green. Staff was very friendly and accommodating from the bag drop to the starter. Only issue was the group in front of us and the fact we didn't see the beverage cart on the back 9. It was a hot day and we could've used a refill of ice and water. Other than those two items Venetian Bay is a favorite of our group.
