Too slow

Way too many people out there. Very slow. Greens were punched which is fine but putting wasn’t the best experience for the price point. Course was real wet and a few holes were cart path only. Practice putting area was basically no help, no holes to shoot at, under construction. Beautiful course as always but way too hot to be waiting that long on every hole. Group in front of us was asked to speed up play, proceeded to be even slower after that until the bitter end at 18.

Heron Creek Golf!!

We had a fun time playing golf at Herron Creek!! The practice putting greens had too dressing on so we couldn't putt on them!! There was NO Cart gal on the course to get drinks too!! Our T time was 11:45 ...so there should have been somebody on the course selling drinks & snacks!!!

Love this course

3 - nines and all are in great shape, moderate to fast greens and settings is beautiful. Only downside is IF one of the nines are closed for maintenance, putting out groups on both remaining nines can cause delays in starting your back nine. Still worthwhile.

As mentioned in previous reviews, from the T-Boxes to the Greens this Course is well manicured. Played the Creek and Marsh Courses which both did not disappoint. Well worth the Trip to play Heron Creek….

My Favorite

Not only 27 holes of Pure Pleasure, (when I'm playing well), but always like a carpet, greens fast. I'm a member of another club down here, but still find a reason to play here. Often, use just the range which is 2nd to none. Do It,

and yes, always a course player assistant keeping the game moving. But Friendly about it.

Great courses to play. The three 9 hole courses allow for rotation and course maintenance. Each has its' own unique challenges, requires smart play, as well as good execution. Best practice area around. Won't be disappointed!

Best looking course I've played in SW Florida

Absolutely stunning course. As a 16 handicapper it was a challenging course for me. A few blind shots, sneaky hidden hazards, tight fairways, and especially on the Marsh 9 - a TON of water. Fairways looked like the greens on most of the courses in the area and even the tee boxes were in great condition.
