Heron/Eagle at Okeeheelee Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Okeeheelee Golf Course boasts 27 scenic holes of championship golf. The holes are divided into three nine-hole courses that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. Named after the wildlife that inhabit the course, the Osprey, Heron, and Eagle share the same beautiful landscape but each one offers a different set of challenges. Okeeheelee means 'quite waters, ' a name that comes from the tranquil views that stretch to Clear Lake. The Heron/Eagle golf course will test your target golf skills. The course features elevated greens surrounded by bunkers and fairways lined with tall trees and deep rough. It is a challenging but fair test that is still player-friendly enough for a range of skill levels. With three different course options there is plenty of variety, but the Okeeheelee golf courses are accessible as well with five sets of tees each

Always nice to play
Nice and laid back staff, the course has something to offer for every golfer not depending on the skills
Green has more slops than anticipated
Enjoyed the course especially the tuff greens.I would recommand to have more traps.
Value for the money
Worth the 45$. Greens not in excellent ahape but otherwise decent course.
Good quality for the price
The staff could be more friendly but in general everything is good. Fairways are in shape and green not to fast.
Good challenges
Love the nature, birds and iguanas but the raccoons are a pain stealing our lunches.
Okeeheele golf
The course is challenging and very well maintained. The so age to get from hole to hole is very poor making it hard to follow. Once at the tee you have a hard time figuring out which way is the green. There is no good way to tell how far away from the green you are once you are in the fairway and the rangers are always pushing you to move faster which causes anxiety, poor performance and even having to skip holes.
This course is very well maintained and fun to play
We were first off the tee and the conditions were awesome. Playing on weekends in December I anticipate a slow pace , but with the way the course is set up and ran we never had to wait on any shot. The course has great appeal and I will definitely be back.
Beautiful Course!
Great 27 facility with lots of wildlife. Just watch out for the racoon's. This is the second time they stole food out of our cart LOL!
12/2014
Course play is super slow but golf is in season so that's normal . Great condition for a public course. Will be playing a lot more on this course.
Fun course
This is a great course for the average golfer. Its in great condition. The greens are challenging, so practice a litle putting before you tee off. The staff are very friendlly and helpful. We played in four and a half hours on the weekend, and finished as the sun was setting. Overall a very nice experience and definitely worth a return visit.
Not a great challenge
Conditions were nice but the course itself is fairly easy and not really demanding.
Terrain de golf en excellente condition
Golf Now devrait proposer des tariffs pour jouer à pied
Good course
Although it rained heavily days before until 1 hour before tee time this course conditions were very good. I would recommend this public course to anyone.
Beautiful setting
Well designed cours lots of water. I really enjoyed my game
An "average" course
Unfortunately, it had rained that morning and on the previous day. Hence, the course was wet and it is not fair to rate the course.
Nonetheless, for the price we paid, it seemed a bargain. At the same time, it must be said that this was off-season and prices will increase substantially as the season comes to an end.
The pace of play was painfully slow and it soon became apparent that the group ahead of us included a beginner. There were Rangers all around, but they did not make the group give way nor made them pick up the pace. Disappointing.
Great Value for the Price
Tight fairways with water often in play. Fairway conditions excellent - well watered, seeded and fertilized - greens conditions very good
golf at okeeheelee
we are playing this course on a regular basis. It is a eal pleasure to play there. The staff is very friendly and the course is in superb condition for the price in comparison to golf course where you pay over 40.00$. We will be playing this course again in a near future.
