Saddlebrook Resort

Even that course was not very crowded during the week we were behind a very slow foursome that never gave a twosome the chance to pass them , palmer course snack bar at 10 hole is closed most of the times it is tough to get 18 holes with no drinks

I know things change, but to see a landmark be modified into something different so the new owners can make a profit, I question???

I hope they can keep this course at the level we all want!

Couldn’t beat the price but the Palmer course is in much better shape. Since they plan on closing the course in the future it seems like they don’t want to put up too much money maintaining it.

Greens were relatively slow, course layout with lots of water in play, no flat greens here. Good challenging course.

My fellow golfers and I love the course. The pace was great and the course was in good condition. They have a very friendly staff.

The course was in very good condition and the entire staff at Saddlebrook was extremely professional and helpful. I would highly recommend playing either course at Saddlebrook.

We played Saddlebrook. Tighter fairways than the Palmer course, but larger greens.

Some of the greens have weeds which impacts putting quite a bit.

Also the speed of the greens wasn’t consistent. Some were very quick, while others were slow.

Sand traps looked to be in good condition. Fortunately I wasn’t in them.

Staff was great, food at the turn was pretty good, but expensive. A burger and quesadillas was $45 without tip.

Wasn’t busy, and we (a twosome) ram into another twosome who let us play through after a couple holes.

A LOT of water along the course, so you better play well.

Carts have screens for distance. Very accurate.

Practice facility was good, but far from both courses. At least a 5 minute ride in the cart to get there.

I’d play there again, but I’d hope they’d remove the weeds from the greens.

Tee off around noon, front 9 in an hour and a half, back nine 3 and a half hours. 3 groups backed up behind us an never saw a ranger. the carts have GPS and they know where you are and how long you've been waiting so where was the RANGER!

This was our first time at Saddlebrook and I must say that the course is in excellent condition less the traps and bunkers that were like cement.

Upon arrival at the bag drop you are greeted by the valet, which is mandatory, then told the pro shop is about 200 yards back into the resort. You can walk or we can arrange for transportation for you and your clubs, "Tips appreciated" .Check in at the pro show and have your valet slip approved, then to the starter shack to load up a cart and get directed as to where to go. When you return to the cart return area which requires another ride to the front of the resort, "TIPS Appreciated". See the valet, wait for your car to arrive, load your car yourself and then when you go to get into your car their is the valet waiting for his TIP.

Everyone has their hand out.

Nice course but I don't think I'll be back

The course was in good condition. Fairways were great. The greens. had just been airrated and coveredwith sand..

Course was in great shape. A couple of traps

could of used some more sand. Greens were true

And rolled well. 1 st time playing the Saddlebrook

18. Enjoyed it as much as the Palmer 18.

Well worth the money!

Right now they are renovating and it was ver confusing where to park and find the club house. Had I not been there before and had a general idea I would have been lost.

We had a wonderful day. The Course and Staff surpassed Our Expectations 🏌️🏌️

At Saddlebrook you are treated to resort style amenities including free valet parking, bucket of range balls, poolside bar and upscale restaurant.

Palmer course layout is beautiful and offers ease of play off tees while challenging bunkers and fast greens.

Value for money is fantastic as the overall experience should have cost twice what I paid.

I will definitely be back to play Saddlebrook course.

I will never play this course again because I was approached on the driver range by staff member and was told to leave because I have only an hour to warm up and when you are finished playing your round you can not use the driver range.
