Superb Course !
This was a fantastic course . We have played many golf courses in central Florida and this matches the best .
We played Deer Run where the tee boxes and fairways were well presented and the greens were of real quality running smoothly and fast .
Staff friendly and pace of play was great 3 1/2 hours to get round ( with 2 four balls in front of us - it can still be done !!)
restored our faith having suffered a near 5 hr round in Providence the previous day .
Would highly recommend this course to others . Looking forward to returning here
Friendly and fun course
From the warm greeting in the pro shop to the friendly starter it was a great experience. I would highly recommend this course.
Nice course good condition
Deer run is in nice shape greens fairly fast and smooth.
Challenging but fair, course.
Course was in excellent condition. We could not gauge our putts, because the greens were rather quick. But, that was not the course's fault...just ours. I think we liked this course better than Deer Run. We drove over 80 miles to play this course and it was well worth it. Highly recommend it.
Best in Central Florida
We recently relocated to Central Florida and have been playing several different courses within an hour of our house to get an idea of what the area has to offer. Without question, Sun n' Lake's Turtle Run has been the absolute best course we have played. We can't wait to play their Deer Run course. Couse conditions blow the others out of the water, particularly the greens. Staff went out of their way to help us...even escorted us to the first tee box as it was a few blocks from the clubhouse and we had never been here before. At $25, you'd be a fool to pass on this course. Better than courses we paid $80-$100 to play. We can't wait to get back.
Great Course
Course was great... a few of the greens had some work being done, but they rolled true and consistent. Overall Sun-n-Lakes is a great value and a good test
Much improved conditions
If you haven't played Tuttle Run in couple years, you will notice a dramatic improvement. The green renovation has become well established, making this layout a treat to play..
Staff are always helpful and clubhouse offers a varied menu.
Good Course to Paly
Good greens and fairways. Tee boxes sometimes a little long but in good condition.
Needs better directional signs
Not a first time friendly course. Could not find starter and there was no sign to indicate where 9 transitioned to 10..
Greatest value in the area
This course is well worth the money. We played twilight rate and almost felt guilty based on what we payed and the quality of course. I played this course a few years ago and could tell they have made several improvements. Greens were in good condition. Loved the end of the round on the 18th!
A Great Place to Play
Perfect weather, perfect conditions, and perfect pace of play!! A good place to play in the PM when rate are good.
First time I play here at Sun'N Lake!
First time I play here (Deer). A very nice golf course for the price. Staff are friendly. I will come back to play the Turtle.

Première fois que je joue ici (Deer). Un parcours de golf très agréable pour le prix. Le personnel est sympathique. Je reviendrai pour jouer le Turtle.
Worth The Ride
I can't say enough good things about this course. It's in great shape! The staff is friendly, and helpful. We plan to return over and over again. The 18th hole is awesome. Beautiful landscaping throughout the course. A true gem.
Aerated greens but all in all a cute course
Unfortunately the greens were punched a couple weeks ago so they were still sandy and bumpy due to holes not healed. Drove an hour from Lakeland, no mention on Golf Now nor a mention from the golf shop as we checked in, had to find out once we drove the mile and half to finally get to Turtle hole 1. Everyone knows the greens make the course, so imagine our disappointment. Cool course layout and would play again once the greens heal but man, let people know ahead of time. Definitely worth the 18 bucks otherwise.
Hidden Hazards
There are several holes where the hazards are not visible from the tee box. Take note of the diagram on the tee marker, and plan your attack. Ice machine on course. I forgot which hole.
Lake Placid Visit
This course is a nice little track. Fairways are a little narrower than the other course Deer Run but it is a little shorter so you don't have to hit driver every tee. Could of used a marshall to keep pace of play up.
