Poor conditions

I’ve played this course numerous times over the years. Yesterday, I witnessed the poorest conditions I have ever even seen at Bent Tree. I realize SW Florida is experiencing a drought. Other courses have been able to deal with it.

I recommend Bent Tree GC

Staff is outstanding.

One of the staff embers will bring a cart to your car, when you arrive in the parking lot.

Fairway conditions good.... some spotty sandy areas,

but very playable.

Greens have a few sandy places, usually near the edges of the greens. We play those areas on the greens, as "GROUND UNDER REAPAIR" and take a legal drop and continue play. I recommend Bent Tree.

Good course for the $$.

Love playing here. One of my good friends grew up on that course and resulted in getting an offer to play college golf . He introduced me to Bent Tree and have enjoyed playing here. I will say though, nothing is perfect, and I’m going to be frank. Sand traps should have some sort of SAND in them and not concrete. Would like to have a little nicer warm up amenities. Other than that, great staff, nice greens, other than the hole placement on one of the holes yesterday. But otherwise all else good.

I'd play it every day and recommend it friends.

Excellent layout.

Greens good to excellent... and fairly fast...

Staff is very professional, friendly & accommodating.

Fairways have a few sparsely grassy or sandy spots.

Overall.... I play it regularly when im here in February & March

Needs a lot of work

Fairways and greens were decent. Tee boxes were pretty chopped up. Cart paths were pretty broken up. Looks like they are having problems with irrigation lots of dead grass.

Good Course/Great Value

After reading some reviews to the contrary, I found the course to be in good shape and well worth my green fees. Were there bare spots in the fairway? Yes, but only a few; overall the fairways were in good condition. Were the tees in good shape? There were some tee boxes that needed some work; others were in good shape. Were the greens in good shape? Yes and they putted true. Were the traps in good shape? The traps had been nicely raked, but the sand was thin and was a muddy sand. You could play out of the bunker but you'd enjoy your round more if you stayed out of them.
