Beautiful Course

Played here with some buddies about a week ago and this place was the real deal. Course was in great shape tee to green. Day could not have been better, played the course in a little under 4 hours. Also enjoyed that there were no houses surrounding the course.

#12 in the state for a reason

Played last year and the greens weren’t in great condition. Wasn’t planning on coming back until I saw GolfDigest rank it as the #12 course in the state. They were absolutely right. The greens have been fixed, and the course is absolutely beautiful. No homes, friendly staff, good pace of play, and just a perfect round of golf. Highly recommend playing here👍

#12 in the state for a reason

Played here a little over a year ago and there were all kinds of issues with the greens. Wasn’t planning on coming back, but gave them the benefit of the doubt. Very glad I did so, because this is probably my favorite course. No homes, no more issues with the greens, amazing staff, and just an all around great experience. Highly recommend playing here👍

Nice Track

Played later in the day. Course was in excellent condition. Played unimpeded on the front nine, and then go bogged down on the back coming up on a 5-some which caused us to not be able to finish 18. Overall, though, an enjoyable experience

Disappointed

For the money you pay, greens were slow, Sand traps need some work. Won’t play again till it is in better shape. Layout was great, friendly staff though.Definitely need to play more than once to know the course.

SWFL Gem

If you’re looking for a premium golfing experience, this is the place to do it. Course has no houses surrounding the property and it feels like you’re secluded in the wilderness. The course was looking and playing great. I would definitely recommend this Jack Nicklaus Signature!

Best Golf Course in SW Florida

I played with my boyfriend this past Monday and there is no better course to play than Old Corkscrew in SWFL. Course is in pristine condition and $240 was definitely worth it. Hospitality inside and outside the pro shop was amazing. Cant say enough about this course. My #1 referred golf course!

punishing course

The course was in good shape although the greens were slow. I thought it was unfairly punishing. You’d hit a good shot and it would roll off into the water, trap or woods. Although I’m an average golfer I’m used to playing on a difficult course. My home course has a 137 slope from the forward tees, but it is fair. IMO Old Corkscrew is not.
