Sanibel island golf

A course with huge potential but unfortunately the greens have been damaged by some type of disease and as such have been spot repaired with sand and other fillers!

Interesting layout! Lots of incredible trees and birds and wildlife in general.

great time interval between players no rushing or being hurried

! But the poor conditions of the greens leaves one wanting more for the premium price paid to play this course

No greens

Upon arriving we were told the greens had some issues. The greens were in terrible shape, we couldn't believe they were still charging full price. Guess it's the price you pay for being on an island. However, the staff was great, very friendly and helpful. The layout is fun with a nice mix of holes.

Nice Staff

The initial greeting was great from the bag drop to the check in. After that it when down hill quickly. The fairways were in fair to poor condition and the green were unplayable. I understand weather had a devastating effect and would take some time to repair and recover. I hope that happens.

Always a fun course to play. They had some issues with the greens but that is improving. Staff is always friendly and very helpful. Traffic onto Sanibel is getting busy. Plan your travel time accordingly.

Beautiful but horrible greens

Greens are in very bad shape, nobody said anything when we checked in. There is a small sign by entrance to pro shop that you don’t notice till you are done with the round.

Nice Day on the course

Unfortunately the greens were destroyed during the offseason. Otherwise had a great time Fairways were fine and the layout is good. I am doing it again this week! All of the stuff was excellent! Would like to have filtered water available, since the local water is not very good even when put on Ice. Lemons? A drink cart on the course would be appreciated.

Could be great

This course has potential. Course layout is good, greens not to much, truly a mess. Personnel are cordial, very nice. Understand it’s Sanibel and you have a captive audience, but pricing is out of line.

Lower the price to $60. a round, work on the greens, get an affiable ranger to Gabitz abit and keep things moving, operate a refreshment cart (charge fairly/tips will flow) and you will have more foursomes, grow reputation and generate more revenue. Tieing reasturant and bar more to course experience would generate more business as well.

This could be one of the most popular and liked courses on the area.
