Tampa Bay Golf & Country Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Tampa Bay Golf & Country Club is a Scottish links-style layout that is routed through sparkling lakes and carefully preserved conservation areas. The challenging layout features narrow tree-lined fairways and water hazards on all 18 holes. The front nine is short and tight, which contrasts nicely with the longer and more open back nine. Overall though, the golf course is not particularly long by modern standards. It is a shot-maker's course, requiring both accuracy and skilled iron play. The course has a challenging finishing hole that sums up the best elements of the course. This par-4 is a sharp dogleg right with a slew of bunkers and a pond to reckon with. The hole borders a nature preserve, making it the prettiest and most challenging hole on the course.

Cut the grass!
Course in really good shape other than the far too thick Bermuda rough and mud/dirt traps where sugary sand should be. The first rough cuts are far to thick and deep. Lost several balls just off the fairway because of the too deep rough. When balls were found, the thick rough was very difficult to get out of. A little too much "penalty" for us ball spraying Duffers! The price was extremely good!
Surprising
Where this course is short in yardage it is made up in strategy. Conditions fair, weeds, bare spots, uneven tee boxes, very small greens to land on. Good time for a twosome.

Great little find not so little of a course. nice layout just all out great day of golf Not the most difficult Great value for the price We will be back.
Very tight
Course was ok. Very much a targeting course with some very tight fairway, lots of sand, and lots of water. Frequently driving through the streets of the community to get between holes - follow the signs or get lost! 17th hole is strange. The starter advised us to play to the 150 marker and that was a good idea. Many holes are not for your driver. Play was very slow in the front 9 but picked up after that when the residents dropped out. Clubhouse was nice with good service.
In any case, probably won't play there again. Not my cup of tea.
Wow! That's a lot of water!
Short par fives...short par fours....a lot of scoring chances IF you can stay out of the drink! Water on EVERY hole. Lots of fun...worth playing.
Worth the trip
Course is in great shape, water on every hole. There are a lot of par 3 holes but the hazards make them challenging. Take extra balls the water is always in play. We had a fun morning.
Very nice course and excellent conditions
We played Tampa Bay 18 hole course for the 1st time and enjoyed it. You have to hit it straight to keep it out of the water but there is enough room on most holes. Several holes were quite challenging due to the bunkering. Hole 17 was very tricky and a bit unfair maybe, particularly if you have not played it before. We really enjoyed it but if you were in the water all day it might not feel so great. Conditions were very good. Greens are lightning fast but fair. Price was a bargoon on GolfNow. We will return for sure but I would not want to play it all the time.
Excellent value
Lots of water hazards. Shot- makers course. Bring lots of balls.
Real nice course with lots of lateral water hazards
Very nice course, I like the layout
staff is very friendly
chalanging
the greens are very quick,three putted alot. fairways are narrow and there is lots of water. use less club off the tee and keep the ball in play enjoyed the course,but thought the greens were to quick.
Tight but fair.
Nice course. Driver not always best choice. Will play again
Beautiful greens tough track
Course meanders thru a housing development. Fairways and greens were good but some traps were poor. Play was 5+ hrs. Maybe I hit it on the wrong day. A real challenge to finish with the same ball you start with.
Beat Us Up Pretty Good
The course is in great shape and the round was just 4 hours. We're both 10 indexes and it beat us up pretty good. We'll be back to try our hand at it again!!
Fun day
I went out with my son and grandson. The course was fun but very playable. It would be good for many playing levels. I'll be back to play again.
Executive course
Course was challenging for a par 3, course condition was adaquate, and pace of play was good. Not worth the trip of 1 hour to go back.
Nice day on The Links
The course and staff made for a great day and a great value for my money
Nice course layout.
A quick round on a beautiful day. Scenic views as course winds through a residential community.
