Great course in North Port

I had a great time with my 2 boys. The staff was extremely helpful and caring and made sure we had a good time. Lot of rain recently came in so course was pretty wet. Could have been cart path only. Pace was slow but still had a great time.

Definite play

Great greens. Every hole unique. Challenging. A must to play the correct tees! Recommend playing one forward of what you would normally. Water on every hole! Watch out for gators, they are big. Highly recommend this course.

Great Layout

Course in good shape, great layout. Greens a little bumpy. My complaints are, lack of any basic yardage all over course. Most par threes had no yardage marker. (Looks like they removed them) very little yardage markers on the course. No 150 yard post. Carts with no GPS… Makes me wonder why a top tier golf course are lacking basic golf necessities!! Not sure if I return or not. Played Marsh & Creek course's.

Always impressive!

Don’t shy away from the distance, it’s well worth the Drive! Course is in great Shape and the Staff are always friendly! Little things like having a Cart right at your Car as soon as you pull in. 😉 Free Balls at the Driving Range and a well maintained Practice Area for Putting and Chipping. Ive played half a dozen or more times over the Years, and it’s never lets me down!

First time playing here

One of the best Golf Courses in all of SW Florida. Just an amazing place. The staff is great the starters and club staff were all very friendly and they are visible on the course. We loved that as it kept play moving at a perfect pace. The day we played it was cart path only and we still got around with a very good time. Thank you all at Heron Creek CC. Enjoyed my day there tremendously .

Sincerely, Jack Mc G.

Absolutely stunning

The only thing that kept this course from a perfect review is that the grill is not open for breakfast. what an amazing course The most beautiful landscaping on every single hole the ride through the woods was simply awesome and I love the bridge. The course is well bred and has a lot of water, but plays extremely fair. Definitely worth every penny

First Time Playing Heron Creek

Wow. I heard that this course had a bit of everything and boy did it. I played the tips and found myself forced to play 5 woods on a par 4. 5 irons on a par 3. And reaching the green in 2 on a par 5. It was fun. The course makes you choose the correct shot and determining what that was became a great challenge. The staff was very friendly and helpful. A++ overall, will be returning.

Great Course

We come down here for vacation every year. Each year I make it a point to try a few new courses. This one makes the permanent list. Course was in great shape. There is a lot of water on the course, but the fairways are wide. No wait on any hole. Saw 3 alligators, 3 dear, 1 rabbit and the birds were colorful.

Beautiful course

Absolutely gorgeous course. Beautiful maintained. Greens are amazing. A lot of challenges, which makes it more fun. Some holes you can't see what's in front of the tee box which makes you feel great when you find your ball on the fairway. They do need some more signs telling you where to enter and exit the fairways and how to get to the next holes, that part was very confusing for an out of towner
