Located just northwest of Tampa, Silver Dollar Golf & Trap Club sprawls across the lush landscape of the west Florida coast. The club offers three nines: the Gator, the Panther, and the Bobcat. The nines can be played individually for a quick round or in three different 18-hole combinations. The Gator/Panther layout offers a good balance of challenges and player-friendly features. Narrow, tree-lined fairways are complemented by generous landing areas. There are sparkling lakes and ponds that come into play on a few holes and strategically placed bunkers are situated along the greensides. In addition to the three golf courses, Silver Dollar boasts one of the area's most extensive practice facilities, which includes a full driving range, two putting greens, a pitching and chipping green with a sandtrap, and three practice holes.

Good value for your money

Course was a good challenge but fair. There was a two club wind blowing, making one of the par-5s (the regulars call it the "Z" hole) VERY difficult at 580 from the whites.

Overall, course was in average condition. Tee boxes were well used, greens rolled well. It was a fun layout, with a good mix of doglegs and straight holes, and with woods, traps, and water all coming into play at various times.

Though walking is allowed, I highly recommend riding with several 200-300 yard hikes between holes.

Great course with long holes

The weather was beautiful even after heavy rains the course was in good condition and the greens are nice. The long par 3s and 5s make this a challenging course, but if you're not perfect off of the tee it's still playable so that helps some.

Great value for the money and they run on-time with very little waiting.

New Florida resident

The course is no frills and needs a lot of maintenance. Tees boxes are not level and full of divots, greens rolled good but again have unrepaired ball marks and spike marks, and fairways need some over seeding. Great course for beginners. The staff were great.

Good course for the money

We enjoyed the round. The pace was good and the greens were in good shape. Some of the tee boxes could use a little tlc. The course was well laid out. We would come back again.

The Gator & The Panther 9 hole courses. Fun layout & very challenging especially against 2 1/2, 3 club wind in face.

12:45 tee time w/ buddy& his wife for $16.05/ea thru Golfnow. Layout is unique but similar to Placid Lakes CC, Harder Hall CC, & Spring Lake Golf Resort Cougar Trail. Has a nice driving range & practice area. Tee boxes & fairways plush. Small postage greens in Gator 9 nine holes. Larger elevated greens in Panther 9 holes. Greens on both sides rolling true & fairly fast. Golf carts w/ windshield & rain cover in back. Will definitely return to play again.

Gator Chomp

Great course at a great price. Love the rural scenery up there. The staff was superb. The Gator ate us up but we faired better on the Bobcat. The Panther was crowded so we elected the Bobcat in order to beat the sunset. Nice club house with very reasoanble drink and food prices and high quality.

Not playing again.

You would have to have a lot of concentration to play next to a trap shoot. Quite unnerving on the back nine.

Go somewhere else

I will never go here again. Greens and fairways in poor shape. Maybe 3 sand traps on the whole course. Not impressed.

Challenging is the surprise

I hadn't played this course in years and was surprised on how many challenging holes the "Dollar" gives you .. Long holes and lots of water here and there make it a real surprise .. not a World Woods fairway but for a local "hitters ballpark" this is your course .. get out the driver and go to town at this course .. long holes and lots of fun !!!

Silver Dollar Golf and Trap Club

First off, the Trap (shooting) Club was far busier than the golf course. Nearby shotguns firing continually through out the morning was annoying to say the least. The golf course appears to be pretty much an over 65 facility where many seniors live and play golf. The playing part of the course itself seems to be well maintained but the course infrastructure is dated (shelters, cart paths, pump houses, pro shop snack bar etc.). Never the less we found the staff friendly and attentive. All of us had a good time ant a great rate.

Better than Expected

I got an amazing deal for this course by booking through GolfNow. $17.68 total for two players doing 18 holes with a cart. The staff in the Pro Shop was pretty helpful and friendly, but the crotchety starter made Mr. Wilson(!!)'s attitude toward Dennis loving. The foxy beverage cart driver wasn't the friendliest, but that certainly didn't stop my brother and I from waving her down on every pass. The course was in pretty good shape, though the lush, manicured greens could have been mowed lower. Although it isn't the most challenging course, it has some pretty long par 4s and 3s when playing from the blues (farthest back), and a good amount of water hazards, especially on approach shots. I will say that whomever decided it was a good idea to combine a golf course and skeet shooting range into one facility better have lost his or her job! Even if firing the person had to be done through sign language... The Silver Dollar website should also include some pictures of the course. It makes first-timers hesitant to give it a try.
