My go-to course in Port Charlotte area

Played with my son, a plus-2 on a picture perfect Florida day. 6th time for me. FIrst time for my son. Course conditions were immaculate. Greens about 9.5 on stimp. This Arthur Hills design is a must to play if in the area. Staff was great. Course is a challenging layout, but is very playable for all handicaps. I visit once a year to the Port Charlotte. There are not many other courses in this area that provides the value this one does. If you read a previous negative review about Heron Creek, please ignore it!

Very Nice

I was very pleased with what we found at Heron Creek

Friendly staff everywhere. Nice pro shop, nice restaurant, nice bar,

Course was very fair and something for everyone. Not an easy course but is set up for all levels of players. Greens were nice with plenty of interest but not stupid hard greens as far as undulations. Perfect speed on the greens. Considering this course had just seen two hurricanes, Helene and Milton, this course was very impressive. I’d play it again anytime and often. Really can’t say enough good about it and especially when you compare it to other FL golf courses with the harsh conditions they endure. This one is a winner

A great value as far as bang for buck

Enjoyable course

Enjoyed the course, the staff, the faculty. All were very good. It was disappointing that we were not told when booking that we were going to play the same nine holes twice instead of another 9 hole course.

Changed our tee time 3 times in a row.

To start of, I love this course, always in great shape. Great clubhouse with a nice bar/lunchroom that non members can go in for a drink and a little food after playing. Great practice facilities also. My only complaint is the last 3 times we played it, they changed our tee times on us but never told us. This time the tee time was moved up 35 minutes so I had just enough time to change shoes and tee off. The last 2 times, they move our tee time back over an hour, which is why I didn’t get there my normal hour ahead of time. The starter had been great all three times working with us but the guys in the pro shop couldn’t care less. We play this course 3 or 4 times a year and tee time issues or not, we will continue too.
