About

Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Par 72
Length 6976 yards
Slope 137
Rating 74.3

Heritage Isles is a scenic course that cut through native cypress heads and natural wetland areas. At 6,976 yards from the tips, it is one of the most demanding public golf courses in the Bay area. While water does come into play on all 18 holes the premium has been put on the short game. With large, meticulously maintained greens, those players who are handy on the putting surface should be able to shave a few strokes off their scores.

Don't plan to play 18 holes....

The pace of play was abysmal. There was very little attention given by the staff and ranger to starting times. Club members will also just insert themselves between groups on random holes and there is nothing you can do about it. Even when I confronted a ranger I was told to "suck it up". It took us almost 3 hours to do 9 holes! And it wasn't our rate of play. The group in front of us played slow and also just "jumped in" at hole 4. at hole 11 we tried to skip ahead, we passed 5 groups, one of which had 7 people!

We were unable to complete our round. Refused to partial refund either.

Bunkers

This course has the best greens and fairways around the Zephyrhills area. The bunkers on the other hand need more attention. Most are very hard surface. Need to work up the sand and groom the surface.
The pro shop staff are first rate. Very professional and courteous.
The restaurant is not really set up to have a quick hotdog or sandwich at the turn if you need it.
I would suggest downloading the Golfmoose app and taking advantage of the two for one deal currently available.

SLOW but exceeded expectations

Not many carts after 1 so had to wait until just before tee time. Some of the greens were being repaired however, most were smooth and fast - I'll return because of this alone. Played white but should've played blue to use Driver more. I saw 2 different Rangers on course but still took 5 hrs 18 minutes after our 1:30 tee time. Definitely a course you have to get familiar with a few times. Cart girl made the rounds, Thanks!

Disappointed

I had high hopes for this course due to some of the reviews that I read. The best I can figure is the players writing these reviews don't get around to the other courses much. The course was not in fantastic, or excellent condition. There is almost no short game facility, so people were chipping on the putting green. I even saw one guy in jeans. What was extremely shocking was the cart guy coming up and spraying me as he tried to clean the cart before I could get my thing put in my golf bag. Unacceptable!!

Beautiful course! From the fairways to the green, everything was in exceptional condition. The only thing that caused me to rate it 4 stars instead of 5 is the pro shop. To say the guy working moved at a snail’s pace would be an insult to snails. Took him at least 15 minutes per person to check people in. Other than that though, the course was great and the golf was fantastic

I think the Majority of Tampa plays this course!!

Don’t get a late T time you won’t finish this course .iIts nice from driving range to overall playability the pace of play is slower then molasses I had to skip holes when I got to the back nine just to save daylight!! I was behind the slowest twosome in Florida who took twenty minutes each shot and they barely can hit the ball They should have let me play through when I practically drove the green three times on them with a 3 wood oh well won’t play here again till I get an early T time!!!

On fire

I played with one ball and shot a 43 in the front and a 42 in the back. Greens were fast. Paired with really nice people. I would play there again.

Heritage Isles - Pace

Not many courses are worth playing at a 6 hour pace. This definitely isn't. Couldn't get my cart until 5 minutes before my tee time and waited 10 minutes at every stroke. Unless you get a time for pennies or have all day to goof around, steer clear.

Also, theres no Golf Pass benefit. The pro shop attendant had no clue what I was talking about.

Working on the course some new sod on greens and areas around the course. But didn’t come into play for us. Good shape considering all the rain we’ve had
