Excellent course would definitely play it again greens were great fairways were in great shape
Scenic views on great course
Course has 3 nines so pace of play is very good. Also it’s almost like beating nag at 3 different courses due to layout. Staff were so polite and professional. Lastly, I forgot my rangefinder in cart and before I got home I had a message from course that they had it in pro shop. They certainly wouldn’t have had to do that as it could have (disappeared) anywhere. Very respectful. This course is on the favorite list for me!
Thank you for taking the time to review us, Retimn8r. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Heron Creek Golf and Country Club - Marsh/Creek Course thanks you!
Heron Creek
I love this golf complex. Outstanding practice area.
Friendly attentive staff at all levels.
3 nine hole layouts by Arthur Hills.
Challenging but fair . Greens are firm and true and hold well. Good amount of slope and undulation on greens . Mostly raised greens and well guarded by bunkers. Nice sand.
Keep drives in fairway and you can score..
Driving is premium really as there is fairway and there is a shot back to fairway if you happen to find tee shot in the jungle.
It’s fun Florida golf
Thanks so much for your wonderful review, u314162312488. We are thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed your time with us. Please visit again soon. Thanks for choosing Heron Creek Golf and Country Club - Marsh/Creek Course!
Great Course!
One of the best courses I've played since moving to Sarasota. Course was in great condition throughout. Greens nearly perfect. Course was both beautiful and provided plenty of challenge. Don't know what their in season rates are, but it sure was a great value for the quality of the course during the summer.

AMAZING
I played this course with my bros today, it was IMMACULATE! The starter, bag boys, front desk, bartender, everybody was so nice. We played the oaks and the creek courses which were both in some of the best shape I’ve ever played. I paid 60 bucks for a first start tee time. Totally worth every penny. I played streamsong and innis brook this past month and I honestly enjoyed playing here almost more than I did when I played at streamsong because I wasn’t thinking about spending 250 bucks to golf! I’ll be returning 1000%! The food was great as well. 10/10 recommend
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Heron Creek Golf and Country Club - Marsh/Creek Course.

Tough but fair
Course was in good shape, fairways and tee boxes great, greens okay, and you were punished if you hit in the thicker rough. Would love to go back and play again when the heat index isn’t 115. Other than that, I recommend.

Another great day at Heron Creek
Greens were in great shape, fast and true. Strategically placed bunkers tested your shot making abilities. A ton of fun. Will play again soon.

Good 18 on a Hot Day
Played the Creek and Oaks nines and the Marsh was closed. I had a good outing and enjoyed the round. Upon check-in I was asked to tuck in my shirt which caught me off guard, but was understandable. I had a nice Oakley polo and golf shorts on which were very presentable, but it was odd to have to tuck it in considering that it was 90 plus degrees and being untucked helps with airflow and cooling, but that's ok.
Multiple warm up areas (driving, short game, and putting) was nice. The cart guys also were kind enough to pull a cart up to my vehicle and leave it next to my vehicle as I parked.
The 1st several holes of Creek were nice, but about midway through the fairways were in rough shape with many browned out areas from the drought. Tee boxes as a whole were decent as were the greens, but they were a bit slower than the warm up area greens. The layout of Creeks was nice and it was a trek between holes which I found enjoyable. The trek between holes on Oaks was much shorter and the fairways were in much better shape overall on that nine. We saw the cart girl several times along with the ranger which was nice although we didn't have a need for the ranger.
I had a nice time overall and would recommend the course. The only downside was the condition of some of the fairways on Creek othwrwise I would have rated it higher.

Etiquette, pace of play
Members are rude, throw etiquette out the window here, 5+ hours in July 100+ degrees, couldn’t imagine playing here during the busy season, staff are not qualified to work in the golf industry,

Great track
One of, if not the best practice range I’ve ever seen. Several putting and chipping greens in great condition along with a large driving range.
Course was in good condition, very interesting layout with all sorts of options off the tee. You can carry many of the hazards with a good drive or play it safe by hitting iron/hybrid. Looking forward to playing here again.
