Heritage Harbour Golf Club (formerly known as Stoneybrook Golf Club at Heritage Harbour) plays through a landscape highlighted by mature, wooded wetland preserves and ponds. The golf course plays through spacious residential corridors, creating strategic risk/reward holes. At approximately 7,100 yards, multiple tees allow the golf course to be enjoyed by players of all abilities. The golfer who succeeds at challenging the hazards and angles will be rewarded with the proper angle for the next shot and an opportunity for a birdie. Designed by Arthur Hills, one of the world's top golf course designers, Heritage Harbour Golf Club is located just a half mile east of I-75 at exit 220.

Greens Issue

I've played this course several times. The only problem I have is too many of the greens are chewed up. They are working on them but it seems to be taking a long time. Other than that I love the course.

Tee’s and Green’s Are Good

In between the tees and greens is pretty much cow pasture that’s not well manicured or maintained. The course layout is a little janky because it winds between so many homes. The directional signs for the cart path were at times confusing and some of the cart path themselves were only dirt. If you can get a good price below $40 for 18 holes, the course is worth it. Any rate over $40 for 18 holes is not worth it.

Good course gone bad

Played it 2x before the current reconfiguration, 2nd time playing since (early on a SAT AM, ~4 hr rd). Original course layout is cut up, 6 par 3's, LOTS of driving around on dirt cart paths, not practically walkable. Carts have GPS & will shut down (which I understand) but stopped ON THE CART PATH, had to push. 2x in our group, saw the group ahead pushing 2x also. 1 temp green, others have been re-sod, not terrible, but not ideal. Price was OK, but doubt I'll return. Staff was great!

Not worth your time and money

I’m very fair with golf reviews but I’m sorry, I can not believe I played $94 to play 18, this course should be a $35 course out of 18 holes only 3 are in good shape. If you think you hit a good shot no, go throw yourself in the lake because the greens and fairways are like playing on a granite countertop. But staff is great and bar is a great atmosphere.

Mr. Disappointed

Greens were not in great shape, don’t hold at all, had one hole using a temporary green. Fairways were hard and a bit dry. Won’t play there again. Over priced for the conditions. Playing county courses would be a step up

Course conditions

This course has recently gone through significant changes and the fairways and greens are still growing in. Many of the greens have bad patches. They blame it on the weather. No way halfway house which was disappointing. Once they build one and the course grows in I suspect it will be fine but that won’t be this year

Better than expected

We played very early and never waited on anyone. The greens room very nice with the exception of about two of them. There was one temporary green. I was very surprised with the conditions of the course. Although the fairways were thin, I have played courses that were way worse. You do have to watch the roll out which got me in trouble several times. My four star rating may be a little high, but the course was certainly better than three.

Not what it used to be

Ever since the redesign, this course has gone downhill. The layout is terrible and makes no sense as the turn is in the middle of the course with no access to food or drinks. The carts have so many alarms and beeps that it disrupts play. They also overbook between the apps and call in bookings so todays rate of play was well over 5 hours. Unless I’m told it’s changed I can’t come back here.

Worst course in all of Bradenton!

Haven’t played this course in a couple years and all I can say is wow was it terrible, tee boxes and fairways were horrendous and worst of all the greens weren’t even playable. Charging people $80 to play on dirt is absolutely outrageous! Course should be free or if anything should just shut down because it is that bad. 10/10 would not recommend to anyone.
