Clearwater Country Club
Rating Snapshot
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.

Not worth it
The course was in poor shape. The tee boxes had sporadic grass, the fairways were just OK, and the greens had recently been aerated and were bumpy. It would have been nice to know about the greens before I played and the fee should have been discounted. The greens fee was steep for the condition of the course and there are better options at the almost $80 price point. The staff was very friendly but I won’t play there again

Overall standard course.
Greens were a challenge but the fairways need a lot of work. Dry spots everywhere.

Course was too busy, had to wait for one hour from my tee time. Grad I saw John Daly teeing off at 10th hole.
Clear Water c c Good Times
We had a 12:45 Tee time but didn't get out till 1:45. We herd on Tues and Friday they have a large group of golfers playing a skins game supposedly led by John Daily. One person in our group left but we stayed and waited till 1:45 so the course was great and the starter Bob went crazy waiting for carts and getting everyone out. Great job Bob, ps was there on a Friday,over all great course
Slow play
There weren't enough golf carts and as carts came off 18 they were reprocessed for players going off on 1. There were backups on every hole as many as 2 groups ahead of us waiting on the tee box. The problem was there was no organization from the club....no marshal on the course trying to speed up play. There was also no beverage cart on course, poorly run club. I cant believe John Daly calls this his home course. We saw him come off 18 while we were waiting on out 12:30 tee time.
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.
