Clearwater Country Club
About
Located just minutes from the beach, the conveniently situated Clearwater Country Club sprawls across a coastal landscape of Spanish moss-draped trees and towering, mature oaks. Stevenson Creek meanders through the golf course, coming into play on six holes. Built in 1920, the layout has a traditional design that is challenging but fair. The course is tight but it plays long, especially on the par 5s. The rolling fairways are well manicured and the greens play at medium speed and are consistently well maintained. Clearwater C.C. actually has a reputation amongst locals for its superb conditions. It is also popular with visitors, snowbirds specifically, since the club offers the area's only seasonal and short-season membership with exclusive privileges. It is also one of the few clubs in the area that allows walking.

Decent greens and tees
Compared to other course in the area like this one the best. Nice layout and greens, tees & fairways ok
Need to play early if you want to get around in four hours. Later is a 5 hr or better and available of carts is a problem. The day we played they ran out of carts at 11 and people had to wait.
Average Course
Nice course, tee times are between 4-5 minutes apart which caused delay of over 1 hour as a result couldn't finish the round.
horrific pace
I’ve always liked this course and they’ve actually got it in better shape than I’ve seen it in a long time but the staff actually told me they purposely over Book and if you don’t like it go somewhere else… Our tea time was 111 and we didn’t get done with the front nine until after 430… I’m accustomed to playing slow rounds this time of year But nearly 3 1/2 hours to play. The front nine is ridiculous. Count me out never recommend this place to anybody.
Not a 4 star course.
Expected more for the price. Greens are really thin.
Friendly Place
Tees have taken a beating. Don’t understand how a par 5 could have that many divots on the tee box. The greens that were good, were very good. But there is a definite lack of ball mark repairing on some holes. Fairways (that I saw) were ok.
Price is very steep for quality of the conditions, but it is the high season. That said, I’m playing again next week due to lack of tee time availability on other courses.
Absurd policies
I had a 3pm tee time on a Friday. When we arrived an hour early we were told they were running about 15 minutes behind. The reason was they booked the course so tight they didn't have enough carts for the golfers. When our tee time came they still had 4 fourso mes they were waiting on carts for, not enough to keep golfers moving g at steady times, creating many bottlenecks on the course. We finally get out and at the turn about 515pm the entire facility wS locked up and closed other than 2-3 guys collecting carts as they came in. There were still a lot of people on the course both ahead and behind us. No access to bathrooms, no bar or restaurant. When asked if we could use the rest room the answer we got was sorry locked up nothing g we can do.. what a disappointment! Then they send a guy out to start pulling flags so you had to leave the course. We played 13 holes that day, no rain check or discount just take the money and run. If you wNt to finish at this course don't book a time before noon-1pm, don't expect any amenities after 5pm they lock up and leave there paying g customers abandoned on the course with no concern for there comfort or well being..if there were a medical emergency it could be devastating with no access to the club house or the facilities. Bad customer service with an uncaring attitude from the staff this course should be a negative 5 stars, completely dissatisfied and unimpressed with the whole experience
Too expensive for the quality
Golf course dangerous to received balles from other players.
