Beautiful course

Felt like we were in Hawaii. Shorter course but very challenging with lots of water everywhere. The course was well maintained and a very good value for the price. Will definitely be back to play again.

Golf course was in great shape. The golf shop attendant was welcoming and service oriented. The starter was overbearing, obnoxiously judgemental and treating everyone as guilty until proven differently, and this was just upon arrival. He even shared how his wife thinks he is an idiot. We unfortunatley know what she means.

If you are interested in making improvements to the overall experience, you should have gentlemen and ladies servicing gentlemen and ladies.

Don't do it for me, it is just a recommendation if you really want to improve the overall experience of your customers.

Fantastic Day

Wunderbarer Platz mit sehr hohem Pflegegrad. Sehr viel Wasser, man muss präzise spielen. Sehr nette Leute, hilfsbereit und zuvorkommend. Voll zu empfehlen, wenn auch nicht ganz preiswert.

Schlecht : 1 Bucket Driving Range Bälle 17 Dollar. Bei der hohen greenfee fand ich das geizig und kleinlich. Sollte der Club dringend ändern!

Favorite course in Fort Myers area!

Love the Dunes! Course was in great shape after a super busy winter season. Beautiful challenging course that I just can’t ever seem to beat. Plenty of variety and the greens are fair with great consistency. Will always be a regular for me and my wife!

Some holes disappointing in that they were short. We felt that a number of areas could have been GUR. One ice machine was not dispensing ice (back nine).

Staff at bag drop very helpful

Ladies facilities were very clean

Surprising challenges

We play here when we can get a decent deal on GN as their in season rates are very pricey On the plus side the rates tend to keep the crowds down and reduce wear and tear. While short, the course has tons of water and challenges for golfers of all abilities. It’s in very good condition and our pace of play was enjoyable.
