Solid track, decent conditions

We enjoyed our afternoon round, moving along at a good clip, we were off in 3:15. Some greens were under repair with sand as were some fairways. I would give the course a sold B. It is a short track as advertised with water everywhere.

Unique Course

Enjoyed my first round at this course on Sanibel Island. Was paired with one other golfer for the first nine played backside by myself. Tees, fairways and greens all very well grassed better than most other courses I have played at this time. Traps well sanded and raked with loose sand. Layout of course very nice as well. Enjoyed myself immensely and would definitely play this course again.

Sanibel Sucks

Starter and staff super friendly

Pace of play was fast

Course is very short

It's one of those courses you play once and thats enough. Mostly because sanibel is such a pain to get to and traffic sucks

Overall perspective

I enjoyed the course..shorter layout with .lots of water makes you think about club selection and direction, especially off the tee. Still it was very fair. I would say though that as a “non-member” on a semi private course the staff was quite impersonal.too bad as it was really the only negative to the day.

Overall, a solid golf experience.

Great pace of play, under 4 hours for a group of four. A few greens were so beat up to the point we were unable to putt from where our approach shot landed. Staff in the clubhouse and pro shop were friendly...starter was a little less friendly, and seemed determined to follow us around for the front nine. Very cool “aqua range”, and plenty of water stations for when the weather is hot. Good test of target golf for a fair price.
