Great Course and Staff

The course was in great shape and the greens rolled so smooth and true. Rest of the course was in great shape. The staff was awesome and so friendly and helpful. The clubhouse staff was as well! We played our round in 4 hours.

Jay the club pro and course manager was extremely helpful and helped us book a tee time for the next week. This is a course I would play once a week if I could!

Nice greens

The greens at Calusa Lakes are by far the most consistent greens in the area by far. Great speed just quick enough to we’re you better pay attention but not so fast that they make you look stupid. I know you know what I mean by that. We all have had that look on our faces like really. The guys inside are great and they are very interested in making you feel like someone special. Thanks to the entire staff. 😎

Worth the Drive from Cape Coral

First time playing the course this year and it’s in great condition. This course is a much better value than the courses in and closer to Cape Coral.

Excellent course conditions

This is by far the best conditioned course I have played

in the Venice area. Greens were perfect and each one

putted the same speed. Layout is fair and challenging.

I cannot wait to play it again.

Loved the course, greens were a little slow, but I am guessing the greens keeper is afraid to cut them tighter because of the serious lake of rain that we have had here in Sarasota. I would definitely recommend the course to anyone.

Great Value

Compared to the courses we play in and near Cape Coral, Calusa Lakes was a great value…if you have to pay $125 or so for a round. The tee boxes, fairways and greens are in excellent shape. This is the first time we’ve played this course this season, but it won’t be the last.

Better all the time!

Giving 5 stars to Calusa Lakes GC cause that’s the most GolfNow gives out..friendliest staff that you can find, and everyone treats you right.. You feel like a member even though you are not.. Superintendent of the course does a fantastic job with his team and the golf course shows that all the time! Kudos to you Jay for all that you’ve accomplished with Calusa Lakes… actually it looks like it did when I first played here in 1996.. keep up the good work for it shows… especially when you drive up the boulevard to the parking lot, looking left at the first hole and looking right at the 18th hole beautiful!!

Great except for slow players

We love the course overall but twice we have played with extremely slow players in front of us. The couple (yesterday) in front of us had no one in front of them yet were oblivious to the fact that they had several groups backed up behind them. We endured this for 15 holes. The ranger came by 3 times and said nothing to them despite us voicing our frustration with slow players. He should have told them to let faster groups play through obviously. This happened both times that we (my wife and I) have played the course. Other than that the course is worth playing in my opinion.
