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.

Firm n fast
Fastest greens so far on trip, breezy day but generous areas off the tee made it better.

User friendly yet challenging
Wide fairways most holes. Takes good shots to get close to holes and enough green contour to make you think and frustrate you from time to time. Par threes good tests. Renovations since I last played in 2021 have smooth fairways and a nice experience. No drink cart seen. But full bar and menu at turn and after round. Water seen but generally not in play with reasonable shot making. Tough to find tee times. Played in under 4 hours. Variety of tee lengths accommodate most folks.

Perfect except for 4 some in front. Super slow and inconsiderate.

Awful Booking/Cancelling Process
Booked directly on their website. Later had to cancel several tee times well in advance and called them per their policy. No refund on booking fees of ~$70/round until I then spent over 45 minutes on phone with the booking entity they use. Absolutely horrible customer service from their proshop

Buyer Beware
Played course and its adequate although overpriced.
Had to cancel other tee times due to illness.
Even though reservations made via their website and cancelled by calling them at least 24 hours before tee times per their own emailed instructions I HAD TO SPEND 45 MINUTES ON PHONE with third party golf intermediary they use to get my booking fee (~$70/round) refunded. INEXCUSABLE.

Great Greens
Greens were perfect! Pace of play wasn’t bad, but could have been better. Enough length and tees for golfers of any ability. Lots of water, but fairways were plenty wide. We will be back next time we are in town.
Course in great shape….friendly and efficient staff!
Polite, courteous check-in upon arrival when getting cart. Quick check—in at the pro shop. Well organized starter and course was super.
Panther Run
Panther Run is a great course. Has a very nice layout for Southwest Flordia and isn’t all ontop of each other. The green roll well, smooth, the tee boxes are well manicured and flat and the fairways are wide and green. Playing from 1 and 2 tees can play a little long at 7500-6600 but has a length for all skills. Definitely get on this course if you have opportunity. One of the best open to public year round in area.
