3/30/2012 - Great course, wonderful people. Posted by Frank (Grasonville, MD)

1/26/2012 - Forgiving layout off the tee but challenging around the greens, good pace of play. Posted by Eric (Toronto, ON CANADA)

12/4/2011 - Arrived with a group of 8 from the Ottawa region and it was a first for our group to play this course. We where all in favor to say that the course gave us more than expected and enjoyed our stop. Recommended for your package if you decide to go in that area. Also the links style made it a course with a different touch than the others visited during our stay in the area. Posted by Allan (Gatineau, QC CANADA)

12/2/2011 - Course in excellent shape and great facilities. Susceptible to wind which adds an additional challenge but a great place to play. Fairways really wide so forgiving off the tee. Would play again. Posted by Paul (Newport, NP10 9DY, UNITED KINGDOM)

3/1/2011 - Great course, long and wide with plenty of challenges. Wildlife everywhere. Greens a little slower than the other courses but still very quick. Could really open the shoulders on this one suits a long hitter, It very new but is well worth a visit Posted by Julian (Cowes PO31 8DP, UNITED KINGDOM)

12/23/2010 - Outstanding layout, great views, awesome fairways and greens. Staff was very friendly and courteous. Definately a keeper and a "must play". One of the best courses I've played in quite a while...Highly recommend it. Posted by Alex, TX (St. John's, NL CANADA)

12/3/2010 - Super course. A little far from any city. Very well maintained. Hope they survive without home sales. Posted by William (Washington Court House, OH)

10/16/2010 - Very friendly and accommodating. Greens seemed a little bumpy from recent aeration I think. Nice layout. Enjoyed the visit. Posted by Michael (St. John's, NL CANADA)

5/14/2010 - This course was beautifly and the fairways were perfection. Hope to play this course again. Posted by Alma (Manchester, NH)

3/29/2010 - I was quite pleased with this new course. It will be a keeper as it matures. The staff was another thing all together. When we finished the cart people where grabbing our clubs off the cart before we could even get the cart stopped. Was not the way wanted to end a nice round of golf. Posted by Larry (Covington, KY)

3/20/2010 - A little pricey, but very nice course. Posted by Tom (Sheffield, MA)

3/7/2010 - Fun course for players of all abilities. Staff makes everyone feel so welcome, makes for a delightful day. Posted by Steve (West Chester, PA)

3/4/2010 - What can I say, one beautiful course. Highly recommend. A must play course, you won't be disappointed. Posted by Bill (Westfield, MA)

2/13/2010 - Good condition, no houses, fun to play. Can be very windy. Posted by Tom (Fuquay Varina, NC)

1/5/2010 - Great course. It was quite windy and chilly, but we loved the course. It was in great shape and played at a good pace. I will put this course on my list for future Sarasota trips. Posted by Normand (Lutz, FL)

11/27/2009 - This was a fabulous course to play and because it is reasonably new there were very few houses around the course. This enabled you to see such a huge array of wildlife in the wetlands. There were huge fairways to hit, but the course bit back with huge, undulating quick greens which is where the scores could increase rapidly. A great experience! Posted by Gary (Birmingham, United Kingdom)

11/26/2009 - Great course, first time we played this course. Will definitley play it again. Posted by Kamal (Mississauga, Canada)

11/23/2009 - New, modern-style course. Open fairways were great for our windy day of play. Undulating fast greens, especially in the wind. A fun course out on its own, as the housing has not yet been developed. Posted by Wayne (Albany, NY)

9/7/2009 - Great course. Love to play this course. Greens are now soft and in great condition. This course is two years old and really playing well. Great staff and practice facility. Posted by Alan (Sarasota, FL)

5/14/2009 - Loved this course. It's in great shape and we found it quite a challenge. Eat before you get there--only microwave food available. No beverage cart eventhough the course was quite crowded. Consider this a must play. Posted by Ron (Greenwood, IN)

3/26/2009 - Sarasota National is a definite play again course. Fair but challenging from the silver tees. Posted by William (Bethpage, NY)

3/20/2009 - Great course!!! Seems so remote. Food needs some help! Will return again next year!!! Posted by Jon (Elgin, IL)

2/26/2009 - Course in very good condition for being new. Played Legacy the day before, both are worth playing. Very quick greens, that keep you thinking. No beer sales on the course, bring your own. I will play this course again. Very good value. 10 handicap.

2/24/2009 - Didn't like it. Still in the development phase (housing etc.) barely any trees, heavily wind-effected. Posted by Karl (Hamburg, Germany)

2/16/2009 - Very nice course. Worth the money. Fantastic condition. But, not easy! Bring your "A" game or move up to the closer tees. Posted by Bill (Westfield, MA)

2/10/2009 - Nice track, good condition, no complaints. We shall return. Posted by Tom (Fuquay Varina, NC)

1/30/2009 - Fun course to play and beautiful landscaping. Turf conditions need to mature a little bit. Posted by Kurt.

12/5/2008 - To new to rate. Must have more wear. Course is in excellent shape and will be a challenging course when it grows in. Posted by Henry (Warminster, PA).

12/3/2008 - Worth the drive to Venice. Posted by JP (Sarasota, FL).

11/13/2008 - Nice young golf coures. Good condition. I would play here again. Posted by John (Philadelphia, PA).

11/7/2008 - Great layout. When this course matures it will be the best in the Sarasota area. Great mix of holes and fast greens. Don't miss playing this beauty!!

8/11/2008 - Great course, wide open, but challenging. Good pace of play. Greens in mint condition. Only complaint was I had an 8:00 a.m. tee time on a Saturday morning, and didn't see the cart girl until the 17th hole. Other than that, I highly recommend. Posted by Douglas (Orlando, FL).

5/19/2008 - This course opened in January 2008 and really needs to develop. Greens do not hold and are lightening fast. However, when it matures it will be one of the best courses in the area. Will be a must play, just like Legacy and Waterlefe. Posted by Karen (Chesterfield Township, MI).

5/9/2008 - Great course. Very, very, very fast greens. New and most of the area in some form of excavation / construction. Would have been good to know that the course had no liquor license. Posted by Debra (Salt Point, NY)

4/3/2008 - A young course with few trees and mild rough, but just enough water and sand to encourage straight shots. Greens are quick and very challenging. Practice facility above average (putting green, sand and chipping area, driving range). Personnel very friendly and helpful. This course will gain in stature with time, and I look forward to trying it again next year. Posted by Doug (Wauwatosa, WI).

3/20/2008 - New course but still a nice track to play. Limited amenities at the clubhouse, but the staff was extremely nice! We had a blast! Posted by Amy (Penfield, NY).

2/7/2008 - Great condition for a brand new course. Multiple tees make it fun for players of all levels. Posted by Steve (West Chester, PA).
