A new experience

SERENOA is a better quality golfcourse today. Short but still challenging to play. Nozhimg to do with the golf but the free beer was a nice gesture

Pleasantly surprised...

Had heard things about this course that caused me to choose other options in the area. Not the case...conditions are better than other courses in the area charging the same or more. Clubhouse staff, and restaurant staff were AMAZING. Greens were a little slow, but it looks like they may not cut greens on Sunday, which is the case at many courses. All in all, I would recommend Serenoa to anyone who wants to play a really great golf course. Don't be discouraged by the negative reviews, they are working really hard at making this a fantastic golf course, and it shows.

Staff I. Pro shop were not friendly at all, in fact they suggested not to use TeeOff, call direct instead..
From the second hole, we waited on every hole with a minimum of 2 Groups waiting to tee off.

The course was in terrible shape, would not expect that for 100/ person.

When I spoke to the ranger about slow play, he said we were lucky, it’s usually slower.

Loved the course

This course challenges you and keeps you coming back for more. It’s a really great track! This course is in great shape and will give you the golf experience you wanted. Regardless of your skill level you will find this course an enjoyable experience from the time you tee off till the time you leave. Super friendly staff! The practice facilities allows you to fine tune your swing. Check out the restaurant too. Great burger and beer to complete your golfing day of fun. Best kept secret in SRQ.

A golf club for everyone

What a great club!! The course is challenging and enjoyable to play. The experience is worth it in every way. This is a club for people who love golf. Whatever your skill level the course keeps you coming back to try the challenge again. The Head Golf Pro Andy Secret and his staff are friendly and focused on making your golf experience great, From the time you heck in until the time you throw your clubs in the trunk you will be glad you played there. It’s a golf club for true golf lovers. Try out the restaurant! Great place to hang out afterwards and enjoy a beer and burger.

Room for improvement

While Serenoa has made some improvements to the course - specifically with great sand in the bunkers and flatter tee boxes, they should repair some of the greens with weeding, cutting, and rolling to increase speeds and eliminate bumpy surfaces. Finally, overseeding fairways with rye would improve playability

Great lunch, slow greens

My foursome had a lunch and golf package. The server in the restaurant was great. Friendly and efficient. The lunch and beverage selections were very good and varied. The layout of the course is very good and some holes are challenging. The pace of play was slow. According to the GPS in the cart, we finished one half hour behind pace even though we waited on every shot. The only complaint about the course is the slowness of the greens. Beautifully maintained, the greens were painfully slow.

Would love to return....

First time to Serenoa and liked the architecture and nature (birds, deer and lakes). We happened behind an outing of mostly non-golfers that slowed play. At least they were playing a scramble format. But painfully slow. The carts have GPS with pace of play timing expectations and we got behind expected pace by over 30 minutes. We wanted to finish before dark. The group did finally make an effort to let us through. Thank you! I will return!

Lost Range Finder

The course was in pretty good shape. We waited on a few holes but it moved pretty good. Sad side is I left my nice Callaway 300 Pro range finder on the cart frame. I've called them two different times and they didn't find it. I'm sure it's on eBay by now.

Good track, good value

We enjoyed our round. Three of us were playing it for the first time, the fourth just once years ago. There were a few holes where we could have used some guidance on the water hazards. We’ll know better next time. We had a very nice round overall.

Home course

This is my go to course when I’m home from college. The free lunch with your tee time in the morning is unbeatable plus the foods good. Pace of play is rough on some days for sure a ranger should enforce that in my opinion but other than that good bang for the buck.
