The Club at Venetian Bay
About
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.

The Club at Venetian Bay
Friendly staff, solid conditions and great value. Glad to have had the opportunity to golf here.
Great fun demanding layout
We had good pace of play. Right at 4 hours. Course is in good shape. The greens are a challenge and were a bit for wear but overall in very good shape. Had a great time and were paired up with 2 local players. Lots of fun.
Enjoyable
After reading some negative reviews my expectations were not high. A few patchy greens does not take away from a good layout with fast greens, good fairways and ok tee boxes. No complaints. If you're looking for perfect pay $300. Recommend this course.
Good condition
Place is in great shape. Greens are true. Maybe abit grainy uphill and in spots. Sand is hit or miss cost me a few today. Played after a tourney and flew around in under 3 hours
May 2 at Venetian Bay
Course was in very good condition considering the lake of rain we’ve had in Central Florida so far this year. Looked a little dry in some areas, but did not effect play. Greens were great except a couple of areas under repair. No one in front or behind us.
A Well Designed Course
Both the course and pace of play were good. This course gets a lot of play, so if you don't book first out, you may encounter slow play. Paying a little more to go out early is worth it.
Not worth more then 30 bucks
Tee box horrible. Greens horrible..
Would not pay more then 30 dollars..
They should offer driving range balls at least .
Love the layout..but they are not taking care of it
Beautiful Course
Friendly pro shop, starter and staff.
Course is a challenge with quick greens.
Very quiet golf carts with GPS tablet.
Worth the cost.
Good price thru golf now BUT
50% on the greens were not in good shape
The tee boxes also.
I wouldn't pay full price for these conditions.
I don't think the course has invested too much money on maintaining the course.
Honestly it's a shame.
Played it last year it was great...
ONE OF THE BEST
IF YOUR IN THE AREA BOOK THIS ROUND NICE WITH A NICE LAY OUT ,FAIR IF YOU MAKE A BAD SHOT YOU CAN RECOVER ,ONE OF MY FAVORITE TO PLAY NICE TEE BOXS, NICE FAIRWAYS GOOD GREENS ITS WORTH THE PRICE
