Sabal Springs Golf & Racquet Club

Course is very tight lots of mounds to rederect your shot to a out of bounds or a pond you will need a few extra balls. Normally I will play a round with the same ball for the entire round. I lost four balls due to rebounds off mounds. Never saw another golfer my entire round. Greens were in good shape but very very fast. I say 8 to 10 on a stemp meter. Would recommend to play again but will have to bring more water balls.

We never got to play. We were basically told to leave because we asked if we could play as a couple because of Covid concerns. The first hole was open and we were told we were going to have to wait 10 minutes for a single to show up. When I simply asked if we could just go since the course was open the guy in charge snapped and went on a rant, saying he was in charge and this is how he did things. He offered a refund. We took it and went to play somewhere else. I suggest you do the same. I would strongly recommend this guy get some training in anger management and customer relations.

GolfNow gave me the wrong tee time. Sabal Springs honored my golf coupon anyway.

Never got to play. Had a prepaid time for 3 of us. Got to the course an hour and a half early. Couldn’t go in the clubhouse cause no mask. But I didn’t need to pay because it was prepaid. I asked if we can check in outside? No. Offered 20$ for a mask, he said No. offered 20$ for his mask on his face. He said No. offered 5$ for one from the garbage, He said No. asked me my tee time and made a smart comment that I’m really early anyhow. I said “F&$@ this”. He said to leave as he is calling the sheriff. Booked at Magnolia Landing an hour later and they took great care of us. Told people about the poor service at Sabal Springs and it spread like Wildfire to the point that after the round, everyone who I saw commented about Sabal Springs and the GM who is on a power trip. Let the Snowbirds have Sabal Springs. Plenty of other courses out there that know how to treat customers.

Due to surgeries it has been 3 years since we have been able to play. It was so good to be back on a course & an executive course was perfect. We were paired with a mother & daughter and it worked out wonderfully. The daughter is just Learning the game so we didn’t feel any pressure and since we weren’t “up to par” she felt no pressure either. We had a very nice round. The pro shop has more items than I recall from before and the staff is very accommodating. The restaurant isn’t open yet so the 19th hole was out. Hopefully next time we are there it will be reopened.

If I were Golf Now I'd cancel my contractual relationship with Sable Springs. First of all, the guy at the pro shop couldn't have been more unwelcoming and rude. Upon entering the pro shop

the guy says "Are you golf now golfer?".

I said "yes".

he says "show me your confirmation number!".

I said ""What? I have no idea what the confirmation number is, I've played 200 times with golf now no one has every asked me to produce a confirmation no".

He says "I need your confirmation number or you can't play here".

He made me go thru my phone until I produced the number..

He then says "There are 3 of you golf now golfers and you MUST play together". I said "OK".

BTW there was no one and I mean no one on the golf course on a Saturday at 11:47am in SW Florida!!!

I then met a golf now golfer named "cat" who was very nice. We went to the 1st tee with no one around at all and I teed it up at 11:47am our tee time.

The guys runs out of the pro shop and yells: "You MUST wait for the other golf now golfer".

my partner says "What????, It's 11:47am our tee time why do we have to wait for the other guy? I never heard of such a thing!!".

The pro shop guys says "You MUST give him 10 more minutes"..

We gave he 3 mins and then we teed off.

The pro shop guy collars from afar "Wait for him now!".

We waited another 4 or 5 mins and then drove the cart off since we had teed off, no one was on this course.

The course was really bad too..

My partner says to me on the first green "I'm never playing here again". I said "me too!".

like i said If I were Golf Now I'd cancel my contractual relationship with Sable Springs.!!
