Great Course

Booked through GolfNow and was well worth the price. I would return when in the area -- I loved it.

Course is fair, but challenging. The scenery beautiful, not alot of houses. Course is in terrific shape. Greens are outstanding -- but VERY tough and tricky. Very subtle breaks. They were consistent though, and everything about the course was first class. It was a very windy day, so that caused the course to play very difficult.

The Bloody Marys were excellent, and the wait staff was fantastic. The people checking us in were a little too caught up in a bunch of caddies from other courses and were not as receptive or as pleasant as I had expected. We felt like we were a bother and in the way of their discussions on rounds, and players they caddied for recently. Course let them go out as a fivesome in front of us, but they kept up pretty well and didn't cause many delays.

Best course in the Tampa area

Sure, you want to play Copperhead at Innisbrook. Save your money and head to Brooksville. I guarantee that at least twice you will find yourself thinking, " this might be the prettiest course I've ever played".

Never disappointed

I am a golf addicted snowbird and every trip to Florida this course is on the must play list. Conditions and weather were perfect. The course is a challenge and is fun to play. It in my opinion is not a course for beginners but is better suited for the intermediate golfer on up.

Great track always in great shape

So hilly never fails to impress with its conditions, design, and vistas. Was a little slow but still enjoyable. Super busy had to wait for a cart. As a former member it was nice to get back on that beast and bring her to her knees...

Amazingly fun

Pete did an amazing job of creating a course that keeps you on your toes and demands critical placement of shot. Scaring you with false fronts and hidden fairway views Pushing you to really think. But the surroundings put you at ease making for a very enjoyable round. Superb ,would recommend it to all players ...

One of the best around!!!!

One of the best Golf Courses around the Tampa Bay area if not the best. Great challenge with enough tees and length to your ability. Choose wisely. It can be longer then it seems. Try to remember where you enter the property off of Route 41. This is the direction that most putts seem to want to go. Beautiful golf course and scenery. Great staff and well worth the visit.

Memorably Excellent

This is a beautiful and memorable golf course. The layout was challenging but fair. The course was in terrific condition considering it was the middle of December. This was my first time playing the course so I was at a bit of a disadvantage regarding some of the blind second shots...however, I still loved playing the course!!!

Good track but Confusing Greens

It's a Pete Dye Signature Course but the only Pete Dye typical features I recognized were the numerous moguls and the occasional tiny pot bunker. I didn't see any of the typical Pete Dye holes I've seen before, for example #18 at TPC Sawgrass (similar to #18 at ASU Karsten). It's VERY hilly for Florida, with several blind tee shots and due to the hilliness I could swear I saw three or four putts break uphill. The course was in good shape overall, but some fairways had a few bare spots and it appeared they were re-growing the grass on some of the tees. That said, it was an enjoyable round overall.

I was paired up with a father and son who were nice enough folks but played very slowly - I didn't think we'd finish 18 by dark after starting at 1:00 pm - so I left them and went ahead as a single after #4. Three groups ahead invited me to play through so I was able to finish in 3-1/2 hours.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we genuinely appreciate your feedback. We did just overseed the course. This can sometimes lead to areas being temporarily off-color, especially with the unseasonably warm temperatures and dry weather we've had as of late. Once our overseeding is complete, the course will bounce back to its usual appearance. We are glad to hear you enjoyed your experience overall and look forward to seeing you on your next visit!

A Natural Beauty

Southern Hills provides a lovely landscape of a golf course. Wide, undulating fairways in perfect condition. Only a few homes throughout the course. Not much water, but enough bunkers to alter your shots. Gorgeous trees, good clubhouse (take you cap of in the restaurant). Very challenging, and a must-play.
