Saddlebrook Resort - Cypress/Pine

Not much watering of the fairways, dry and grassless in areas. Several greens patched, but not tended properly for patch to gain a foothold. Careless cutting and replacement of holes. Many ball washers had no towels, what towels there were are threadbare and in tatters. The ball washer water was as brown as dirt. Cart paths were missing several sections of concrete, or rough and broken. Signage poor throughout the course, whether trying to find the range, or back to the course. No tread on cart tires. Played more like a bad muni than a 'resort' course.

I played the Saddlebrook Course on 5/8/22. I did not stay at the resort. The parking situation is horrible. There is valet parking, however the setup is not ideal. I ended up having to carry my cart bag probably a quarter mile to the cart I would end up using. The starter was excellent and the only thing that made the entire experience tolerable. I was started off on #10 and right away you could see that this was the typical Florida resort situation. Were at one point it was a top notch facility, however there is not nearly enough money put into keeping the course maintained properly. Interesting since I paid $77 to play and I am a Florida resident. The cart was old and raggedy with not even a USB connection. The cart paths all the way around the course were horrible. Tee boxes were bad, bunkers OK, and greens......a nightmare! Even the ball cleaning stations were unusable bc the water inside was brown and smelled. The cart girl was good, saw her once on the front and once on the back. This place is basically a municipal course on a resort. I will not play here again and would suggest to anyone to not pay a penny over $45 any time of year!

Excellent day from the moment we drove through the gates. This is a really enjoyable course in all aspects and a good challenge for all club golfers. The course was in good condition considering the time of year and the usage it must have had during the snowbird period. The course and facilities are well appointed and the staff were all extremely helpful, friendly and happy. My wife and I left the venue thinking that we would definitely consider staying on the course for a week and playing daily.

Friendly and Professional staff. Course well maintained.

Got a great rate and played as a single. Got through the round in 2hrs 20 mins! Hit a foursome who godly let me play right through and also caught up to a threesome who let me play through again! Course was in great shape! I even left my SW in the range and the picked it up and brought it to me in the course! Great staff and course I will definitely be back with my group!

Course is in good shape, greens roll true. Pace of play was super fast. middle of the day on a weekday. Very helpful and friendly staff.

The staff was great. The course is in good shape. The beer lady was around three times. First time playing course. Greens are firm and fast. Will definitely be going back. I'll play Saddle Brook course next time.

The course is in nice shape, pace if play was great, just wish the carts had gps.

Played the Palmer course, great couse, greens were perfect, highly recommend the course.

We had a little glitch but Logan in the proshop fixed everything. Already looking forward to going back.

So not so challenging, and you can expect slow round. VERY difficult to find 1st on Palmer! Some nice holes, but over-all not bad, but not great. Fairly short. Probably will not return, but value and staff were excellent.
