Heritage Harbour Golf Club (formerly known as Stoneybrook Golf Club at Heritage Harbour) plays through a landscape highlighted by mature, wooded wetland preserves and ponds. The golf course plays through spacious residential corridors, creating strategic risk/reward holes. At approximately 7,100 yards, multiple tees allow the golf course to be enjoyed by players of all abilities. The golfer who succeeds at challenging the hazards and angles will be rewarded with the proper angle for the next shot and an opportunity for a birdie. Designed by Arthur Hills, one of the world's top golf course designers, Heritage Harbour Golf Club is located just a half mile east of I-75 at exit 220.

Fun Round

I enjoyed my 18 holes at Heritage Harbor. The front 9 was interesting and challenging. The back 9 felt like an executive course with all the par 3's. Course was in good shape except where they had issues on a few greens. I will definitely go back again.

Rough shape

This course is a good layout but unfortunately the greens for the most part we're not in great shape. I've played this course many times over the years and haven't played it in several years and played it twice. Really disappointed.

I was opting for better

Haven’t played in two years or before the remodel, but never heard great things in the last two years. Exactly what I experienced. Terrible greens, patchy in fairways, and just overall lackluster.

Work in progress

Really great staff, grounds and facility are beautiful, just a shame they seem to be having issues with the greens. Bare spots and weeds, hopefully they can get it under control. The cost seemed a bit high considering the course issues. The layout wasn’t bad and pace of play was great. Lots of risk reward around the course and the par 3’s all played a reasonable distance. Will play again soon if I can find a discount card or something.

Thanksgiving Eve Round

I Have played this course for many years on and off. The name changed along with the ownership. Heard they sold off the old hole one and two to developers for a hotel or condo. The course went through a renovation around that time, probably around a year or so ago. Honestly, I was hoping for a better outcome than the conditions we saw while playing. We were notified by the staff that some of the greens were under repair?! What?! They just did a renovation! There were about 5 or 6 greens that were just pitiful. Bare spots, with patches of new turf sectioned in. Some areas of the rough (near SR64) are just embarrassing. This used to be a well maintained course (no River Strand). I'm hoping they can turn things around, because the potential is definitely there.

Big Changes - Needs to Mature

I've played this course many times, but not in the last two years. It was in such bad shape we stopped playing there. Since then they have done lots of work; new greens, new layout, new holes. It's going to be really nice but it needs a few months to fill in and mature.

Disappointing Return

Prior to the course redesign this was a great course. Now the layout is second rate and very disappointing. The conditions were bad, but even if they were good the course just doesn’t make sense. They converted par 5s to shortened par 4 and par 3s to make up for the land sold. Simply not worth the drive from Tampa.

From the Uk

New course layout is an improvement but the greens and some patches on the fairways need attention (they have struggled to get them to bed in due to drought conditions)It’s a fair test ,nice par threes but some par fours are a bit boring .Good pro shop with nice reasonable selection of clothing.Booking came with a free drink which was a lovely bonus.

Stay away

I had to see with my own eyes how they have ruined this course. I played this course before homes 20 years ago. Greens roll well where there is grass. Lots of diseased spots. Weeds in fairway. Traps weak Will never go back

Bald tires on carts, stuck behind played being coached hitting 2 or 3 balls each

Terrible place. Bald tire on our cart blew up nearly throwing us into the bushes. Had to wait for replacement cart. Was told they can’t maintain carts to a safe standard as they have too many. Complete disregard to health and safety.
A guy was allowed to coach his kids all the way around hitting 2 or 3 balls each.
No water at the water stations but we weren’t informed so 18 holes without a chance to refill.
About 6 greens had work going on.
Worst place ever.
