Panther Run Golf Club
About
Located in Ave Maria, Panther Run Golf Club is less than 30 minutes from Naples but it has a much more secluded feel. The course was built with a strong dedication to preserving the landscape's beautiful natural features and significant environmental resources, even as residences started being developed. An abundance of lakes and waterways characterizes the golf course, all of which are filled with alligators and other native wildlife. It is nearly impossible to play a round without spotting a gator. In addition to the 13 holes with water, there are more than 60 bunkers strategically placed throughout. The challenges are balanced by generous greens and wide-open, player-friendly fairways. Panther Run G.C. also boasts an expansive practice facility that includes five practice greens, a short game area with two sand bunkers, and an aqua driving range.

Please don’t play here…(keep reading)
I want to keep it to myself. This course is excellent. Multiple tee boxes - all in perfect condition. Fairways are lush and wide open. Greens are smooth, run true and are challenging. There are some lakes - but the gators will spend more time in them than your shots. I was a single with a GolfNow tee time - but the staff were pleasant and sent me out early. Practice facilities are large and immaculate. Carts were new with GPS and Bluetooth. Only issue was pace of play. Got stuck behind a foursome that we waited on almost every hole - otherwise an amazing round.

Finally
Now that most golfers went home the fees at this course have come down to earth. It’s a wonderful course but the fees during season were over the top. Could be one reason why the number of people moving to Florida is coming to a halt

Panther Run
The entire staff was both professional and friendly.
The course was in good shape and the tees and greens excellent. The fairways are very forgiving.
The weather the day we played had a nice breeze so
it helped us stay cool. We very much enjoyed
our 18 holes of golf at Panther Run.
Love
This course is absolutely beautiful and definitely worth the price!! I’ll be back!!
Panther Run
Very nice course, conditions were great. Out in the middle of nowhere but when completed there will be a lot of home options to choose from.
A Great Track
This course is a pleasure to play although we appeared to play just before they cut the fairways and greens because nothing was running on the fairways and
Panther Run
The course was in great shape, even with a single jammed in between us and a threesome in front of him, we played as a twosome in 4 hours on the dot! Greens were firm and fast and rolled true. We’ll definitely be back.
Great course
Course is in excellent condition. Good layout, greens are true and good choice of tee boxes. A few very wide fairways you can’t possibly miss. Good challenging course with sand, water, undulating greens and distance. Watch for alligators!
Course is in excellent shape. Staff and amenities are good as well. They have a great practice facility as well. It's a little far out but we'll worth the drive.
