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.

Very Playable

My son and I recently played the Panther Run.

Course. Conditions were outstanding.

The fairways were very generous and the approach shots to the greens provided the challenge to lower handicappers are looking for..

Several sets of tees to chose from providing many options depending how far you hit the ball. .

There is also a first class practice area and driving range.

Will definitely return again.

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.

Restaurant service was slow and when served it was wrong. No drink cart service on the course. Golf course in great condition. Worth my 50 minute drive.
