About
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.

Okay Course To Play
This is an okay place to play. The layout is interesting and there are a few challenges for an average or better golfer. The greens were pretty terrible this time, though, with no chance to get a true roll, but it may have been due to the time of year as they had recently had xome very cold days and maybe some snow. The weather when we played was cool. but quite comfortable. Recommended only if you are aware of these little issues and just want to play a relatively quick round.
You get what you pay for…
Was in the area for vacation and figured we would give this course a shot… way cheaper than everything around it, and it is obvious why. Titling the “greens” as “greens” is a stretch as every single one of them was completely sand. Hadn’t been aerated or anything, just sand. Fairways were okay - lost of standing water as it had rained two days before. Weird layout - couple of holes on the same green. Won’t play again and $30 is still a stretch for the value.
How does this place stay open?
Not a one green is playable. If any grass just tiny clumps here and there that change direction of your ball. Sand has been put down everywhere on greens. Not a one true roll, so we took no more than a 2 putt. Total neglect at this course. Many tee boxes had so many broken tees laying around They claim to close on Monday’s for maintenance. Not sure what they maintain. The netting on the driving range is all down after the halfway point. When you play the 9th hole you are in complete danger as balls reach that green.
Terrible
Greens were absolutely atrocious, no greens at all your putting/chipping in sand bunkers. Don’t play here, spend the extra money to play somewhere else!!!!!
Nature Walk
I've played this course many times and this was the worst conditions I've ever seen. Fairways poor, greens were all sand! I felt like asking for a refund!
Sand Greens
I have played this course a few times and this time was embarrassing for the golf course. The greens were in terrible shape with sand everywhere.
Terrible greens
No grass at all on the greens not worth $40 at all.
Owners have stopped maintaining course.
This is the 3rd time playing here. First year it was beautifully maintained and what you picture of a Florida course. Now there’s rare to no grass- anywhere. The fairway has dried up moss/ mold chunks laying around. The greens are mostly hard sand with scattered tufts of grass. Next to impossible to aim when putting. We won’t be returning unless reviews reflect major renovations.
Nature Walk
Everything is good except the greens, they are terrible
Greens are awful but it is a great swing practice course for your irons. Decent value for the price.
Greens Not Playable
Greens have gotten progressively worse over last 3 months. We decided to move putts to areas that didn’t get a bounce, keeping the same distance to holes. Only plus was a beautiful day, got to hit balls.
