Rating 70.7

The Links of Lake Bernadette enjoys verdant landscaping and a rolling terrain that are perfectly complemented by mature and towering pines. At 6,400 yards, the golf course is seemingly short but it feels like it plays much longer due to frequent doglegs that can be found throughout. Six of the par 4s play over 400 yards and a few par 3s measure over 200 yards, which also helps the course feel longer. Water hazards and bunkers come into play but they are balanced by large greens and wide fairways that make for easier approaches. Although beginners won't feel out of place and there are four different sets of tees, the golf course boasts several tricky holes that will challenge even the best players. One of these, the 163-yard 13th, was once called the best par 3 in Tampa Bay.

Good for the money

First time playing this course and will definitely coming back. Friendly staff, easy going players around and good pace. The price is fair and the course is in good conditions.

The Pro shop has everything you need in case you forget or need anything before, or during your game.

Very well balanced between men and women players which makes it a plus for me, who enjoy to go with my wife.

Overall, it fills my interests, and while I understand other fellow golfers would like other courses, I find it very convenient.

They always do this in the winter

Can you say grossly overbooked !!!!!! I love this course due to it always being in great shape. But somebody screwed up and grossly overbooked a thursday. I picked a 2 o'clock tee time figuring I could probably cruise through after everybody else was done. Couldnt tee off til 2.30 and there was foursomes in front of me and foursomes behind me. It was miserable. Only got to finish 10 holes and left disgusted.

Slow slow slow

Seemed to be way overbooked, had to wait over 30 minutes for a cart to ride. The cart never made it through 9 holes before its battery died. Had to call the pro shop at number 7 fairway for a new cart. Limped the cart to #8 green by the time they replaced my ride. Finished 9 holes and was waiting more than 30 minutes for #10 tee and decided I’d had enough waiting around. Got a rain check from the pro shop for half price next time I’m there. Will wait for all the snowbirds to leave before traveling the hour to get to this course again!

Everything is there except the alleys and green

This has been a rainy winter and the alleys are in bad condition with lots of mud track.
The alleys have hardly any grass to allow you to strike the ball property.
The green are a mess and need lots of tender loving care and they are extremely slow due to their condition.
The staff are friendly and they do 5heir best to welcome you.
The price is about right for these condition.

Disappointing

Even though we have had no appreciable rain the course was muddy. “Lift, clean and place “ all day. Pace of play was slow to say the least. Still, for the price, it was what we have come to expect.

Slow greens, lots of bare patches, lots of room for improvement

Sad to see the conditions here. Course is a good layout but greens were longer than most fairways. Putted at 4 stimp. 25 foot put and couldn’t get it to the hole, needed more club!! Price was good but not likely to return this year.
Hopefully they get working on the course and bring it back!!
