About

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

The Moc
Haven't been here in a few years, layout is fun, and fair. I would come back again.
Ripoff 1 dollar membership fee
See above and the employee that told me about this fee was rude!
Impressed By Greens
the greens were rolling very well especially during the times when many are aerated. The fairways and tee boxes were a little beat up but I'm not all that worried about that, prefer better greens. The layout was OK. I wasn't in love with it but def some good holes and def some very challenging holes like 9-11
One dollar extra fee, not cool!
One dollar extra fee, not cool! The course was pretty good but in spots lacked grass. I was charged an extra dollar to become a member for a year which supposedly is in the very very very fine print when you sign up through Golfnow.The staff member was very rude with me when I complained. Overall a good experience they need to drop the one dollar fee, it is not fair!
Dennis,
I understand your frustration with not understanding our member for a day program as you booked through the hot deal. It says specifically $1 membership card must be purchased. Please be consistent with your message when leaving two reviews for the same day.
A fun track
Much of the course is fair but challenging. #9 is extremely difficult to the point of near impossible. The green is a postage stamp. I can't imagine this hole is birdie but a hand full of times per year. I'm a single digit and find this hole to be difficult to the point of absurd.
The greens are what you'd expect for the value. Still fun.
Lucky we got it in!
The weather forecast showed 80% chance of rain... and it did rain to the north and the south... but at the Moc, we did not get a drop. And we played fast, in just over 2 hours. Only problem, my wife beat me... as she does a lot! :-( TA
Great day of golf at "The Moc"
Played the Moc for the first time today because I moved to the area. It was a wonderful experience. The layout, pace of play, and cost were all excellent. Started as a single, joined two other guys, and we all finished 18 holes in a shade under 3 hours. The course conditions were mixed. Greens are excellent. Aprons and greenside bunkers are good. Fairways are okay. Tee boxes, cart paths, roughs, and natural areas aren't appealing. In summary, management is putting the money into the things that matter most to me. Can't wait to play it again.
P.S. They have a good COVID-19 setup. Check-in is outside with mask and gloves.
Amazing greens and tees. Lay out is VERY good
BEST value in manatee/Sarasota
Great golf carts
Excellent customer service
Great Local Course
Great course layout for advanced to beginner golfers with very good practice facilities and great food. The tee boxes are a little rough due to lack of rain, but the greens are in great shape and the pins use a shallow styrofoam cup for COVID-19 play so your ball can actually go into the hole rather than bouncing off an extended cup like some courses have done..
Thank you for leaving your review. We are seeing a pattern in your reviews as you played five times with us recently all in hotdeals. Please do not buy them and let others enjoy the experience that you do not share. Golfnow has been contacted and will refund as soon as you book again.
I'll be back!
Course has been through some tough times and it shows. I would play it again, but only for fun. Lots of deferred maintenance and poorly maintained tees.

Nice day at The Moc!
The greens are in great shape and the pace of play was great. Our tee-time was 1:45 and we were out of there by 4:15. I finally beat my wife... that hasn't happened for a while. The course is easy to get to... right at the intersection of I-275 (the Sunshine Skyway) and NB I-75.
Great greens and layout
Staff there is very friendly and the greens are running fast and smooth. Layout is a lot of fun. They just need some rain because the tees and fairways could use the water...on a bright note your get a lot of roll off the tee! Worth the money for sure.
WeWereExpectingBetter
My husband golfed on Thanksgiving last year and couldn't wait to take me to see this beautiful course. After one hole and my obvious disappointment he said "just wait" indicating that he had high hopes that the rest of the course couldn't possibly be as rough as hole #1. By the 2nd hole he knew we wouldn't be back. If the whole course was as well maintained as the greens our review would have gone so differently.
Thank you for leaving 2 reviews and you thoughts on a "dollar ripoff." We are a membership platform golf club of which there is a $1 member for a day program which we are extending for one year as we build out our membership. This is no hidden fee which is clearly stated on the golf now website that you are required to pay at the golf course. Our employees are human and understand their role in the hospitality industry and I am sure were only reactive to which they were spoken to. Thank you very much and hope you have a splendid day.
