About
Moccasin Wallow Golf Club (previously known as Imperial Lakewoods Golf Club) is located at the intersection of I-75 and I-275 on exit 45 in Palmetto, less than a 30-minute drive from Tampa, St. Petersburg and Sarasota. The course was designed by Ted McAnlis around 200 beautiful wooded acres with 16 lakes. The course's signature hole, No.18 (550 yard, par 5 dog leg around Imperial Lake), is chosen year after year by local golfers as the best par 5 in southwest Florida

Excellent
The Moc has completely turned around. Noah and Staff have done a Fabulous job of restoring this Golf Course! Every day it changes for the better.
Great value too.
It is North Manatee hidden Secret. !! I never get tired of playing it. It has GREAT BONES ⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️
Golf today
When we checked in today, they did not recognize our reservation. They said they received nothing from golf now. I showed them my confirmation and they said we could use another tee time. No help with getting our bags on the carts or when we turned them in.
Would not recommend this course.
Moc review
We had an enjoyable round. The greens were in much better shape than the last time I played here. One negative is the RED ANTS they were every where. My playing partner got swammed on the first hole. Eww had to be extra careful from then on.
In better shape than when it was imperial lakes but some holes hardly have any grass on the fairways.
Staff weren’t all that friendly when we arrived. Apparently they are still a private course and when you check in you have to join as a member. It’s only $1 each but you just get the impression you’re being “ nickled and dimed”. They’ve reversed the nines so now their signature finishing hole par five is now #9. Did this apparently so you pass the clubhouse twice for refreshments but none of our foursome liked that at all. Too bad it’s nit much better than before but they’ve sure raised the rates.
Getting better
This course has been improving over the last 2 years. The owners seem to be putting some good efforts into improving the greens and the fairways.
Good course for a good price
Course was good and the price was right for this time of the year. Tough greens with lots of slopes. Course played long after rains a couple of days ago and a little breezy.
Soooo Good!
The course speaks for itself. GREAT LAYOUT! The greens surprised me, I was told that the greens were top dressed on Wednesday, must’ve been a little coat of sand bc you couldn’t really tell and they were still “10ish” for speed. The staff is doing a great job getting this place back to what it used to be. I will BE BACK SOON! (Driving range tee is PERFECT)
Great day and great course
The layout and maintenance of this course were excellent. The par 3’s were very fun and interesting. Hole 9 is crazy and very challenging. Overall it was an enjoyable course to play. They also have 6 different tees to accommodate a wide variety of skill levels.
Worth playing
There were heavy rains last night and the course was quite wet. I would not hesitate to go back.
The pace of play
Each time I play this course I finding is never too crowded. We never feel rushed and never have to pair up with strangers. The course is challenging enough to keep us interested.

Easy drive from Sarasota. The course looks to be in survival mode. Pro shop not overly friendly. No one at bag drop. Got my own cart and loaded my clubs...no big deal..Got out early as they said the course was wide open. Since I chose to go off as a single I played very quickly and caught the men’s club at 14...They are a very grouchy bunch and never acknowledged me or said hello. I drove in and did not play the last 5 holes. Greens are good fairways average but did not enjoy the layout. Wind was howling so maybe that diminished my enjoyment..Lots of courses in Sarasota and south and will not be returning even if it is free.
Thank you for leaving your review. We do not understand your “survival mode” comment as it does not pertain to this golf course. We have a great layout, one of the best in the area and feel that for the price it is also a great value. The hot deal you played on was an even better value. Thank you for giving us a try as holes 8-14 “the venom den” are a very tough stretch especially with 25+ mph winds. We understand it was hard to enjoy that experience.
Enjoyable afternoon of golf
This is the first time I have played this course since the change over from Imperial Lakewood’s to Moccasin Wallow. I was pleasantly surprised at the improvements that have been made to this course. There is still work to be done but the greens were very nice, the tee boxes well grasses and the fairways in good to very good condition. I will definitely play again and recommend to my golfing friends!!!
Nice day at The Moc!
The greens were in great shape, and fast! Much better than the last time we played there. Nice bar inside with water views, too.
Trying a new course
We have not plated this course before because awhile back the reviews were not good as to the course conditions. Well over the last couple of months the reviews were good so we thought we would try it out. We will definitely be back. Course was in nice shape, greens were great, tee boxes were good, and fairways only had a few bad spots. My wife and I both really enjoyed our round and look forward to playing again
Great shape, great price.
The course was in great shape. Greens were pristine. Pace was slow but that’s florida in the winter. Will be back time and time again.

Paul,
So let’s get this straight. You booked a hot deal and the golf course was not in receipt of your tee time at 12:52. They checked you in for a 12:37 and had you go earlier. The bag drop is 10 feet from where golf carts are parked and you were upset that no one put your bag on the cart for you or wiped down your clubs afterwards so now you give a poor review because the $30 you paid golf now was a “poor value.” Thank you for leaving your review and showing how your story played out. The day before you played a professional event was held and the players loved the facility and have rebooked for February. They loved the brand new golf carts and the food is great. We thank you for your review and respect your views that Moccasin Wallow is not for you.
