Course is in poor shape

This course was in very bad condition. No grass anywhere. Basically play off of either dead grass or dirt/wood chips the entire round. Tee boxes were somehow even worse. Greens were in decent shape but holes hadn’t been replaced in days as grass was growing over the edge of the cup. It clearly is going through some transition as electric and sprinklers are exposed every hole. I would have been fine with all that had we not paid hundreds per person to play there. I would not recommend playing until they complete whatever remodel they are doing.

Sanibel Island

This course is a great challenging layout with awesome scenery and wildlife. Unfortunately it is currently in poor condition as they try to get their irrigation system back up and running. Guys working hard on the new system. Ian, Helene, Milton tough on this area. Hopefully back next season. Despite the poor conditions, we still had lots of fun. Still worth a play if hunting for variety.

Under Repairs

The course is still in rough conditions from Hurricane Ian. Much of the course has to be described as 'under repair' and I moved my ball quite a bit to make sure I was swinging on grass over dirt versus just dirt or gravel. Many of the tee boxes were dirt/sand/and some mixture of gravel -- hard to get your feet planted and set at times. There was also evidence of significant investment and work going on at the course and I did not complain to management because I did play all 18 holes and even under poor course conditions, enjoyed my day. I suggest there prices come down to around $75 a round for 18 with cart -- given the cost of better courses it would make them a more competitive offering and offset some of the poor conditions of the course while they continue to improve the fairways and tee boxes.

Course was in rough shape. Might still be an after effect of hurricane damage?? Putting in an irrigation system so lots of ground under construction, and that didn't help. Will be better once in and running.

Course construction

Layout at this course was good however they were working on irrigation and there was tracts of dug up dirt across the course which impacted enjoyment of the round. Lots of wildlife along the course. Saw at least 7 alligators on this day...

How about some signs!?

Played with friends. The course still has a ways to come back after the storms. Greens were nice, but large portions of the fairways are still bare. This was compounded by holes where they are installing the new irrigation system.

While I understand that bringing the course back takes a lot of work and time, I don't understand the complete lack of signs in the course. Not a single tee box is marked, and there are many holes where you have no idea which way to go to the next tee. Pretty annoying.

Fixing this should be easy.

Play this course every year.

My adult daughter and I have played this course for years. We vacation on the island every year and sometimes more than once a year. We have played here before the storm damage and after the damage hoping to contribute to the island economy. Drew always greets us by name and is glad to see us. Greens were great and rolled like carpeting. Wildlife was abundant. Pace of play was best ever. I’m looking forward to playing again next week and purchasing a souvenir from the pro shop. Please excuse some of the storm damage still evident and remember what this place and people have endured.

Help by playing!

The greens are fantastic (Pas Pallum). The fairways are quite spotty still, after three hurricanes. Stay on the Island and help keep this course going!

Challenging and Fun!

This course was lovely to play! Teaming with wildlife, and stunning greens. Although there are a few fairway areas in need of repair, the majority of the course was fantastic!

Care must be given when driving as the course is lined with beautiful homes. We had a great round, and will definitely come back to play again!
