Saddlebrook Resort

Great day of golf only made better by the helpful and friendly staff.

From arrival at valet parking to our return every staff member was upbeat and cordial helping us first timers navigate, from parking to pro shop, to practice range, to the first tee.

Then came a great course that has a picturesque layout while being both challenging and fair. Would love to come back in the spring when the fauna is In full bloom

Very nice course, very friendly staffs! Good path! We asked to play Palmer course Instead since we know the saddle brook resort course is under repair of the greens. Only thing I was not happy is the parking which charges $5 for valet parking. We gave tip for valet! What’s the $ 5 For? We pay green fee already, should have free parking! Is it right?

I would not recommend playing this course at this time. 6 of 9 greens on the front 9 were unplayable. The staff or starter didn’t mention anything about the greens either. Very dissatisfied with the course.

This us a wonderful resort with great service from a friendly staff. The golf course had excellent fairways and the layout was challenging yet playable. Unfortunately there were 4 very bad greens with somewhat diminished our experience.

The 6-hole green was in a very bad condition, with only sand and dirt under construction.

I enjoyed every minute of this golf course! Will be back for sure!

Great golf, will play again. GREAT STAFF.

Thank You

Even though the greens have just been updated, it is a beautiful and peaceful place to play.

The staff could not have nicer and most accommodating.

Even if you live in Florida, it feels like a vacation playing here.

I read the recent reviews and was hesitant to book. I am so glad I did! It was chilly and windy but sunny. The Palmer course is a target course so if you just grip and rip maybe it’s not for you. Conditions were excellent and each hole has its own identity. Greens were a tad slow but ball stayed on the surface and greens were undulating. Fairways could have been cut shorter but ball sits up. I have played many premium courses and I rank this as number one in value and interest. I am 66 years old and rank this number one favorite place to play and will be back!!

Too cold to enjoy. Cost was in very good shape greens were awesome, but the pace of play was slow as it was very busy. Add that to the blustery conditions, decided to play only 12 holes will be back on the warmer weather

Another enjoyable round on The Palmer course. The course overall is in perfect condition. In my opinion the friendliest staff in the Tampa area. 5-STARS

For a resort, it is hard to believe how bad a situation it was. Parking vis valet is required. The staff was totally unorganized. After waiting 10 minutes for ride to clubhouse, I decided to walk. The greens were really bad. There was no starter when we arrived so we started to t-off. Then a RUDE staff came up to us and wanted to see our ticket. Had no clue what was going on. After round, had to take own clubs back to valet and then waited for 20 minutes to get car. Oh, btw, have to pay for this poor valet service. NOT GOOD.

Great track. Greens rolled beautifully. Staff changed my spikes for no charge. Great service.

Nice course except most greens were under repair and nearly unplayable. It would have been good to have been advised.

There were 4 greens that were under repair but playable.

We thought we were playing Palmer but got a call that we were moved to Saddle Brook which I said OK but they didn’t tell me that five of the greens were in bad shape. If all the greens were in good condition I would of given the course the top rating!

The course is great except for five greens. I can't remember the holes but there are five greens that are covered in sand due to bad soil. They are in the process of fixing them but it will be a while. So with that said, I am writing this review on January 15th, 2020, so I would give it around 4 - 10 months give or take for the greens to be back to 100%.
