Type Semi-Private
Par 72
Length 7532 yards
Slope 139
Rating 76.3

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.

Always such a great round, beautiful surroundings, just keep an eye out for the gators

Ave Maria is a beautiful corse and as long as you hit it straight, quite forgiving. Fairly difficult to get something to eat either before the round or during the round. folks at the pro shop are great. The starter seemed a little grumpy but quite knowledgeable.

Panther Run Review

This was out first time at the course and I was extremely pleased. The green fees were very reasonable for the Naples area in season. We each got a basket of ball to warm up with. The course is in great shape and the greens were rolling great. I will definitely play it again.

Very nice course

I liked the course, not too difficult of a layout. Most holes pretty straight with traps and water and some narrower fairways being the main challenge. The staff were friendly and helpful! Course was in good condition but the greens seemed slower than they should have been for a hot, dry day. Would definitely play here again!
