BEST PUBLIC COURSE!!!

This public course is a great layout for every player. The fairways are in incredible shape. The layout covers all of lakewood ranch.The greens are in unbelievable shape. On a step meter,I would guess around an 11. I would compare this course greens to copperhead and TPC Sawgrass. The the staff is very friendly. The bar and restaurant has great little selection and the food is good. I would highly recommend this place. GREAT JOB FOR THIS COURSE.

Good value for the Sarasota area

The condition of the greens and bunkers was excellent.
The areas beyond the fairways are not well maintained,
Intersting layout with extensive waste areas creating target golf on some holes.
The cartpaths need improvement.

Overloaded course

I really enjoy this course. The conditions are all around solid if a bit soft. The greens ran true in spite of being recently sanded. I was very overloaded at the start but it did clear out on our second nine.

If you see a hot deal, book it!

Always one of the best courses in the area, greens were a little beat up from the summer heat in certain spots but otherwise everything was solid. Coolest layout you'll find around here.

Dry course. Nice greens

Somewhat dry conditions, greens putted well. Sand traps fluffy. Nice cart girl. Friendly staff. Not worth $95 but worth $55 on GolfNow. Pace of play was slow but the rain saved me from the aggravation after 15 holes. Ended the round. For $55 I'll return but not $95.

Very nice course with good conditions. Staff very inflexible due to my Golf Now reservation. Would not allow us to go out early despite openings.

Above average conditions. Course layout is a target style course. Very hot day so water on course greatly appreciated.
