Rating 70.7

The Links of Lake Bernadette enjoys verdant landscaping and a rolling terrain that are perfectly complemented by mature and towering pines. At 6,400 yards, the golf course is seemingly short but it feels like it plays much longer due to frequent doglegs that can be found throughout. Six of the par 4s play over 400 yards and a few par 3s measure over 200 yards, which also helps the course feel longer. Water hazards and bunkers come into play but they are balanced by large greens and wide fairways that make for easier approaches. Although beginners won't feel out of place and there are four different sets of tees, the golf course boasts several tricky holes that will challenge even the best players. One of these, the 163-yard 13th, was once called the best par 3 in Tampa Bay.

Good value

Nothing fancy. Reasonable price. Ok layout and ok condition. A little beat up from carts around greens. No water on the course and no cart girls.

Great course for the price

Pro shop and bar are both nice, the course is well maintained but a few of the greens & tee boxes look like they need some TLC, overall great round for the price

Okay Course to Work on Your Game

Course is Okay, some Fairways and some Greens could use some love. If you can Catch a Hot Deal on Golf Now, Okay Course to Play. If You are a Serious Golf and use to pristine Fairways and Immaculate Greens, May Not Be for You. If You want Fresh Air and Fine Tuning Your Game, I would Recommend Giving this Course a Go. Beware, Course Could use some Love, some patchy Greens and Bald Spots in Fairways, but in Okay Condition to get in a Fun Practice Round. Pace Play was Horrendous on Sunday around 11:30am. 6 Hour Round for a Single Golfer behind at least 3 Foursomes with No Golf Etiquette to Let People Play Through. But Okay Course and I will probably Play there again. Great Staff and Snack Bar Helped this Review. Pace of Play, would have got -5 for this Course.

Improving!?!

This course was in our rotation but fell into a poor state last year. It was just about unplayable (especially the greens). This was my first time playing here in 18 months and it has come a long way. I hope they keep up the improvements. They were really busy but the starter did a good job pairing us up with another two-some.

Good value

Golf course overall was not bad, some fairways were wet, greens are better than last year, although it could still use some TLC.

Poor Condition

I played this course a couple of times last year and thought I would give it a try again. Unfortunately I must give this a poor review.. The layout is good but the greens need a lot of work. One example is one of the greens has a high spot and you can see that the greens need to be filled in .OUt of the 18 geeens two or three were in okay condition

The fairways are a combination of a bit of grass on dirt. We paid $30 but truthfully its just n ot worth that price. I would not recommend this course
