Style Links
Par 71
Length 6484 yards
Slope 125
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.

Not great

Don’t bother playing here. Carts are falling apart. Barely any cart path. Most holes sandwiched between houses. Poor upkeep in general

Great for $20 after 3 pm

I play here about once a month . Great course with variety of hole layouts. Not in the best condition especially the greens but between the staff and price with little holdups, can’t beat it.

Greens are shot. Hopefully new owners fix them. Looks like they're trying, but will take some time.

Clubhouse is being remodeled.

First Time Playing

Needs a major refurb

Went out late afternoon to hit 9. Fairways were well maintained, tee boxes weren't horrible, but the greens were in shambles. Weedy and very slow and an exposed root ran through the 9th.

Bad bad shape!

My understanding is the course was recently purchased and I see a bunch of things going on, like clubhouse being painted but the course is in horrible shape.. looks like tractors have been driving down the fairways creating major ruts from tractor tires.. greens way overgrown. Many sand traps filled with sod that is now completely dead. I am hoping the new ownership means good things to come as this has been my go to everyday course but I think they need to concentrate on the course first instead of the clubhouse.

Depends

First of all the layout of this course is spectacular. Went through new ownership a few months ago and is going to need 2-3 months to get back into shape. As far as the conditions go now, greens are rough.. some are sad, but it’s still playable. if you’re picky or looking for a perfect course look further., after 3p for $20 why not. Good people, good GC

Oh boy

They are remodeling the facility but it appears they have completely let the course go. Tee boxes in bad shape, fairways very spotty, greens have large dead spots in them & what isn’t dead is shaggy, slow & very bumpy. I won’t be playing this again for a long time

Worse course I ever played on

The greens were unplayable, like putting on a playground, traps in bad shape.

The worse part about the experience is that they charge full price and don’t tell the customer before hand about the conditions.

Be the ball

Looks to be completely under repair, but you’d be hard pressed to find a course in worse condition this side of the Mississippi.

Good course

Good course nice layout, large groups slow down pace obviously. The greens need some attention. Some very tough “roll” on what’s out there right now.

Rough shape

I’ve played this course many time for many years. Usually a good value course with fun layout, but currently in as bad of shape as I’ve seen. Greens are horrendous. I won’t be back for a while until they get things back under control.

Under repairs - hopefully will return to form

Greens punched and in poor shape. Fairways hit or miss. Needs some TLC to return to form to be a good course for the value again.
