Seeding has improved greens and fringes areas, with improvements to tees and fairways also noticeable

Bent Tree is getting better every day

You can tell they have put in a lot of work at Bent Tree. The fairways are much better and the greens are in great shape. There's still a lot of work to do such as the cart paths and bunkers but they are definitely on the right path.

Too Slow

We had two groups in front of us at every hole and it was so slow we were only able to finish 12 holes. This is the 2nd time we’ve golfed here and the same thing happened last time.

Tuff course

Trees, water, doglegs...enuf to keep it interesting. Course condition very good. Green a bit slower but relatively true. Our pace was fast, probably because wind conditions were rotten...lol...2-3 club ups and swirling. I'd recommend this course.

Beautiful well kept course but….

Absolutely no ammenities. The cart runs occasionally which has hot dogs, etc but an abandoned club house operation. I watched it slowly fade into zilch beginning before covid. It’s a real shame for a Sarasota classic club. Even a wet cloth would be something at least since no club washers anywhere, no driving range, marshall, Zip. However, kudos for course maintenance. Very nice. 😊

Windy windy windy today

Aside from that, the course is in good shape, greens are slower but good shape, fairly true,. I liked the layout. Some fairways wider, some narrow, plenty of water but not too much, par 5's reachable for the avg golfer.

Fun layout with some unique holes

We really enjoyed everything about this course. The fairways weren’t perfect but much better than most public courses. Greens were true and in good shape. Staff is friendly. I will be back again soon.

Just keeps improving.

Nice course, nice built up greens,fairways getting greener,tee boxes ok. Only downside is the bunkers, they are hazards, so just rake a area and place your ball. Enjoy the layout,just enough challenge to make it fun. 5 sets of tees. So fair for all.

Always nice greens

Hurricanes made major changes to the course but the fairways have improved a lot and the greens are always fairly quick and true
