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.

Great course for any golfer

Great value at twilight. Course has forgiving fairways and 5 tee boxes so everyone can find suitable distance. Only waited at 2 par threes but our foursome was done just under 4 hours.

First Time Playing

I deliberately booked a tee time for 18 holes at 3:00 (dusk at 6:30) so I could get the $59 rate vs the regular daily rate of $199. What can I say, I'm on a budget.

I knew I wouldn't get all 18 holes in but it was an inexpensive way to check out a lot of the course. Really liked it. Unlike most other courses in the Naples/Bonita Springs area you don't have water in play on every hole. Most of the fairways were 150 yards wide so lots of opportunities to take out the driver and let it rip.

Decent grass on the fairways and huge greens.

I liked it but wouldn't pay full $199 even though that seems to be the going rate in Naples for a couse like this.

Fees you charge were absorbent

Found out that if I would have called direct I would have saved $28.00 per player.

Totals out of pocket was $114.00 Thanks Golf now!

Great Course

A very well maintained golf course, the staff very attentive except for one waitress when we ordered food, but other than that it was a very pleasant experience and I will be back for sure.

Beautiful, if a little straightforward

This course is in beautiful condition, from tee boxes to fairways, greens, and bunkers. Everything was wonderfully tended. The views are great as well, and there are ponds and lakes on most holes with the opportunity to see many gators, and the back nine takes you along the edge of the community so you can see the surrounding swampland.

The individual hole layouts, especially the par 4’s, are a little repetitive and fairly straightforward. Fairways are generally wide and course is very playable. Even the water hazards, which show up on most holes, aren’t ever too threatening. 18 has a beautiful peninsula green, but it’s a large enough target to be forgiving. I think the challenge of this course comes from its length, which can really play as long as you want it to, with tips around 7500.

All that said, a beautiful course in amazing condition, with superb amenities and a generally friendly atmosphere. I would recommend.

Best Course i played in the area

The golf course was in perfect condition - perfectly manicured, greens fast but not overly quick, bale out area for sucker pins to get it up and down. Aim at fairway poles which guide you how to play each hole which was very helpful.

Had Marshalls out there but GPS said we were 7 minutes behind . Group ahead appeared to be a hole behind but did not push them to keep up. Just said finish hole you are on at 6:20 pm.

Finished 6:15 started 2:06.

First time playing there but would play again.
