Nature Walk Golf Club, as its name would suggest, sprawls across a scenic landscape blanketed with majestic oaks and Florida pines. The course boasts well manicured fairways as well as immense playability, both of which have been factors in its growing popularity. While the layout may not satisfy golfers looking for monstrous pot bunkers and lengthy par 5s, it does provide a fair amount of challenge. A number of sparkling blue lakes come into play throughout as well as bunkers that closely hug the greens. Nature Walk Golf Club is both gentle enough for beginners while being a great casual round for more seasoned golfers. The warm atmosphere, excellent conditions, and easy of play can be enjoyed no matter what skill level. Golfers can also utilize the extensive practice facilities, which include a driving range, a putting and chipping green, and a pitching green complete with a practice bunker.

Staff was rude.

I had someone come up and ask me if I was finished with the cart when I was unloading my clubs. I realized I had left my Bushnell range finder attached to the windshield when I got home. When I went back to look for it the young man in the clubhouse said “You should keep up with your stuff better”. That was the end of that! Great customer service if you like to be insulted. I may never go back there.

Quick Round/Good Value

My wife and I try to get out to play Nature Walk twice a month. It is a short course but can be challenging enough from the tips. Really good value for a quick round, the staff are always accommodating and pleasant. Thank you Nature Walk and Golf Now!

Love it

I love this place because it’s a good little challenge. Although it’s short and mostly par 3s, there are some narrow tee shots and plenty of water. The 16th is an easy version of 17 at TPC Sawgrass. My favorite “feature” is you can walk and enjoy some quiet reflection. The greens are basic so 4 and 5 footers are frustrating, but that’s ok, on in regulation and a good lag put gets you home in par.

Great Par 3–Approach game practice

I was hesitant to like this course b/c of its short length.

I normally walk 9 weekly at my home course (price and length of walking—3200yards)—but the part of my game that needed most work was my approach game. As a high handicapper — I wanted to become better at my 150yrd in….

This neat little course has given me a great chance to improve my game.

For the price…. You cannot beat it. For the price of walking 9 at my home course. I can pay that, and HALF, if I catch a good deal on GolfNow….and walk all 18 at Nature Walk. Being 3200 (or thereabouts) and I’ve gone from a 25+ to a 15-18+ average. So it’s a work in progress.

Staff extremely friendly. Never have an issue on the course with others.

Never have an issue with staff giving me hard time about paying Thru the app. (Seen this VERY common complaint about other courses who feel like they’re not making money from Golf Now)

But they fill spots and make a few bucks. Natures Walk. GREAT value. We’ll taken care of greens and fairways.

I have noticed a few bunkers have been allowed to grow over around some greens. But in the end they may not have the income to keep ALL of that up. It still does provide great opportunity to improve GIR average….
