Looking around and impressed

I have played here many times for years. Driving around the island and seeing the remains from Ian I think this golf course is quite impressive.
The greens are very impressive. Amazing thick green grass that rolled true. Greens and adjacent to greens was all good
Fairways are in less good condition. You must play “winter rules”. There is not grass ever. And unfortunately, the fairway on 18 is the poorest. That may leave a lasting thought.
Overall, the course was impressive. Greens allowed for pleasant round in a perfect day for golf

Over Valued

All though the greens are in good shape, the fairways & tee boxes are in very poor shape… for $100 for green fees, this course is currently not worth the price… hopefully they will get the fairways straightened out from where they are today…

First time on this course and first visit to Sanibel since the Hurricane. Was pleasantly surprised how well cleanup has progressed on the island . The tee boxes were in good shape and the greens and the area around the greens was excellent. The fairways are still a little spotty from the hurricane damage but the bare areas have been reseeded and appear to be on the way to full recovery. The owner was very friendly and appears to be trying hard to get this course back to pre hurricane conditions. Hope everyone heads out to Sanibel for some golf and helps get this course back on track .

Nice course

Nice course, friendly staff. The fairways are about 80% grown back from the hurricane. There are know snacks or drinks. Take your own.

The pro, Drew and the lady that checked me in were both great! Very informative and helpful!
The greens were in excellent shape. The fairways were far from perfect, but reasonable when you consider they were covered with salt water for months!
Enjoyed the course and the experience!

All new greens

For those who haves played this course in the past few years you will recall the poor condition of the greens. This has been corrected with brand new greens on every hole.
Now you appreciate the contours of the greens and consistent green play for the whole course.

Trying to come back

The course really was damaged by hurricane Ian. They are trying to keep it running and I admire and applaud their efforts. The greens are in great shape , the fairways are very beat up. Nice layout and if you think about the greens fees helping with the recovery, it’s worth it. Pace of play was fantastic, finishied in about 3 1/2 hours

Greens were the only thing that was green the Fairways are dirt. The tea boxes were pitiful and for $90 you think it would be better. I know they went through the hurricane but they need a lot a lot of work.

Improving

Staff among the friendliest anywhere. Tee boxes were in good shape. Greens were in excellent condition. They are working hard to get their fairways back after Ian ruined them. This course and staff deserve our support to recover and ensure that there are golf options on Sanibel Island.
