About Saddlebrook Resort

Since 1981, Saddlebrook Resort has been a go-to-destination for golfers, located just 30 miles north of Tampa International Airport. The resort's two original Arnold Palmer designs are being redesigned in 2025 into a 27-hole combination by Rees Jones. This entirely new playing experience will pair with a new 13-acre practice facility, home to a two-sided range, and golf school to engage golfers. A world-class tennis facility is another major attraction of this resort. A sweeping $92 million transformation will reimagine the 451-room resort from the ground up – positioning it among the nation’s premier leisure and sports resorts.

Palmer Course - Nice layout

Wide fairways, greens in decent shape. Course amenities and facilities were in disrepair and very dated.

Rough Shape

Frustrating that the course upkeep is so inconsistent. Tee box grass was as long as the rough, greens had burned out patches. Played a month ago and the course was manicured beautifully?

Great course but tipping got to be too much

I’ve played both courses several times over the years but this time had to use valet parking which meant tipping the valet driver, tipping the guy that unloaded the clubs and placing them in the cart and then when round was over tipping the the very nice gentleman who insisted on wiping our clubs down, tipping the cart guy who loaded the clubs and brought us back to the valet service then tipping the guy who fetched our car.. For me who plays a lot I’d rather just go where I can put my own clubs on the cart and go play.

Greens were quick. Fairways in good shape.

For this time of year, the Palmer course is in good shape. The greens are fast and they are holding. Fairways are good with very few bare areas. Over all a nice course to play this time of year.

Disappointed that there were no scorecards. Said they were on order. Played alot of golf over the years but have never played without a scorecard. Very strange.
