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.

This course and layout never dissapoints
Great place to play Golf. Practice area are exceptional, staff in the proshop and the cart person were great. Course plays well, greens in top shape. Highly recommend giving Panther Run a try. Only draw back is the food we ordered on the turn, we took it with us to the 10th Tee then realized they didn't get either order correct. We ordered Cix salad sandwich and a ham and cheese, we got 2 tuna sandwiches. By no means does this snafu detract from this gorgeous Golf course. We always come back when we visit.

immaculate conditions
awesome golf course, the greens and fairways were superb, I enjoyed the layout and the par threes were challenging but fantastic. I highly recommend this course and will definitely be back when in the region.

Will Definitely Play Again
It was my 1st time playing the course, and it was worth the hour drive to get there. The staff was congenial and professional, the amenities, including practice facilities, were excellent, the proshop was clean and nicely laid out, and the track itself was a good one.
Overall the course was in great shape, greens rolled well, fairways left nothing to be desired, and the native fauna captured our attention. It wasn't a difficult track from the old guy tees where I played from, but I could see how it would be quite the challenge feom farther back. Definitely worth the time and money!

Really Pleasant Experience
My 1st time playing this track. Perhaps from the tips or further back it would be a more interesting track, but from the #4 tees where this old guy played, it was attractive but almost every shot in on the para 4s was a 7 or 8 iron.
The staff was awesome. The facility has multiple practice areas, allowing you to get prepared for your round if you like to prep. The greens, fairways, tee boxes, everything was in tip-top shape. We'd surely play it again even if the track itself was fairly blah from our tees.

No Aeriation alert.
loved this course, although not alerted about the course aeriation. Cant wait to return when it's grown in.
on another note, I had contacted you about a credit for a pre-paid round at The San Carlos Golf Club in Ft. Myers, Fl. where 2 of the 4 players were not able to complete the entire round. they had to leave due to sickness. had to leave prior to finishing the front nine. the course was not able to issue a rain check and I was told to contact you. I did and the agent told me that I would be receiving a credit. at this point I still have not been credited.
Good morning,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We understand the importance of clear communication regarding course conditions and tee time schedules. We will work on improving our communication channels to ensure that all our guests are well-informed before their visit. We would like to invite you to email us directly at info@hampton.golf to further discuss your concerns. Your satisfaction is important to us.
