Beautiful course!

This is the nicest course we have played yet in south west Florida. We found it challenging with the number of bunkers and water hazards especially on the back 9. There were little touches that made a big difference ie. the cart was spotless and stocked with tees, ice filled cooler on each cart and water/ice stations and washrooms appropriately placed on the course. We got a great deal through Golf Now and hope to play this course again soon.

Water, water everywhere...

We selected this course for the beautiful setting, and were not disappointed. It is a beautiful course, well maintained, and surrounded by water.......so I did leave a few balls behind when I finished! It was a 2-club wind the day we played, so it was a bit hard to get used to, but it added to the challenge. We didn't expect the $6.00 toll to cross the bridge onto the island, but would have booked the tee time even if we had known. Great fun, and challenging because of the wind and the requirement for careful placement.

This course has lots of water and bird wild life

This course is very scenic with lots of birds in the water areas which are on almost all holes. It is quite challenging with all of the water so bring lots of balls. But extremely well kept and fun to play. A very good value.

Great experience! Will be back next year!

While vacationing on Fort Myers Bch. I planned on playing a couple different courses. Had such a good experience the first day, I booked another tee time 2 days later! I am a higher handicap but feel even low handicap golfers would find the course challenging. Shorter design but challenging, tight fairways and most greens are elevated. Every hole requires a tee shot of accuracy over distance. The course was in excellent shape and the staff very friendly!! Definently playing again next year when I'm back on vacation!!

Well-Kept Course on Sanibel

Course is in great shape, and staff is very friendly and accommodating. Has a bit of water so some holes can be challenging. Also saw the only only crocodile on Sanibel on the 18th Tee!
