Wentworth Golf Club is routed through a scenic and varied landscape of woods and wetlands. At 6,459 yards, the golf course is relatively short but it offers a demanding, target-style layout. The course has narrow fairways and small greens that run fast. The front nine is routed through towering stands of cypress trees, pines, and mature oaks while the back nine has a more links-style layout that will test your shot-making skills. Water hazards come into play on several holes but the far more prominent features of the course are the massive bunkers that lurk beside the fairways and greens, ready to swallow even slightly errant shots. Careful strategy is required throughout the course in order to avoid losing balls. In addition to the challenging layout, Wentworth G.C. boasts superb conditions that are considered some of the area's best.

Course is in Poor condition

Overall, greens were terrible - lots of bare spots. Fairways were ok in some places but bare in a lot of approaches to green. Rough varied in length throughout the course.
I expected more from Wentworth, was disappointed. I heard from other golfers that Wentworth was undergoing an Admin change.
I do not plan on playing here again anytime soon.

A glimpse at what was

This course could be incredible. Surrounded by old trees, beautiful homes, with a nice clubhouse, it is just a shame what this course has become.

I've heard stories of what it was like 20 years ago, and I wish I could have experienced it then. The layout was very interesting, with tight tree lined fairways, and complex greens, but that's where the complements have to end.

The fairways were mediocre, with the rough leaking into the fairways. It looks like the rough wasn't mowed in months, losing balls feet off the fairway.
The practice putting green got me excited, very pure, however, it was very slow. Sadly, that trend did not carry on the course. Greens were riddled with large dirt patches, which made putting nearly impossible, unless your line avoided the dirt,

The sand traps were good. Only half of them seemed to be upkept in terms of raking, and all of them looked like they had not been edged with a string trimmer in years, but the sand seemed recent, and was ok to hit out of.

I played this course because of a coupon that allowed me to play for $20, it was about what it would be worth. Sadly, I'm not sure how they can make the course better without charging more than what its worth, but at the same time, $50 is hard to swallow for what your getting.

I hear the course has changed owners recently, and I applaud them for taking on the challenge. If this course can go back to how it once was, it will be a treat for everyone in the county, but they have a long road ahead.

Looks like this course is using the recent hurricane as an excuse to not cut the grass ANYWHERE on this course. A lot of guts charging $45 for a course in this condition,

Course Pro should NOT handle the front desk - RUDE

We have played this course dozens of times since they opened. We have seen the course conditions go up and down. The layout is great and many challenging holes. There is a small driving range, a chipping area and putting green, making for a good warm up.

We found the golf pro who was working at the front desk to lack any customer service skills and has his own knack for being rude and non-caring. He should not interact with the customers with his attitude. We will not be going back for this reason. There are too many other courses where they value their customers, not talk down to them.

The course is in bad shape

The grass was like it hadn't been cut in weeks. I lost multiple balls in the fairway due to grass too high that I couldn't find the ball. The greens were mediocre and one of them was almost completely brown. I have played there many times and this is the worst I've seen it

Wentworth Goat Path

I booked this course on Tee-Off along with my neighbor. The course was in terrible shape! The greens had Blythe most every hole on the front nine. Thunder and lightning came in as we finished up on the ninth hole so we went to the clubhouse and asked for a rain check for the back nine. The man working the Pro Shop said Tee-Off would have to reimburse us for a rain check. The fairways needed mowed along with the greens and roughs. There was one working ball wash on the front nine and it had filthy water in it! Not worth the money or time to play this “goat path”!

A great experience!

I'm a relatively new golfer, invited my father and friends for a nice 18 rounds of Sunday golf. We had a great time; the cart girl was very friendly and attentive and was greeted with friendly and endearing gentlemen at the pro shop. The staff truly care about their property and player experience. There was a bit to be desired in course maintenance and quality. However, that is easily overlooked, especially with the incredibly hot Florida heat.

Terrible conditions, no disclosure

I've been playing this course for years, I was highly disappointed at the course, the leadership, and failure to disclose the course conditions.
I recently played and the course was in awful shape, bad greens, fungus, and several fairways were not in good shape.
We were charged a higher rate than advertised online, when I shared my feedback with the on-site staff, they promised a follow-up from the course director. No follow-up was received. Guess I won't be back and won't be shy about the lack of transparency with course conditions.

Wentworth it? No!

I should have heeded the negative reviews but we wanted a warm up round after traveling and the most recent reviews said the rain was helping. The only thing that will help this course is an infusion of money, expert care and time.

Positives: friendly staff, decent (very slow) greens
Negatives: everything else. Poor, uneven tee boxes. Dirt fairways (see pictures).Tree roots in bunkers.

I wish them luck but even half off a Hot Deal would not get me back there.

Wentworth or Notworth!

Help Wanted...Please! WOW, where to start. This track is the definition of missed opportunity. What a great piece of land. One of the best tracks of land I have seen in my five years living here. But truthfully the course condition was brutal. Greens were fine for the most part we saw 1 bad green #4 I believe. As for the course condition. Two things all golf courses need. Grass and a lawnmower. It look like they had tried to set the course up for the U.S. Open. No grass where you wanted it and foot high weeds where you didn't. The only bunkers that had seen a rake was on hole #9. And yes each cart had rakes on them, but wasn't nobody using them. Hardpan abound! It looked like the course had been sold. With the right ownership this place could be one of West Florida's top tracks. And yes I did read the reviews before playing and yes the article about the battle over the private vs. public split. All I say is this place has so much potential and so underwhelming.

Good value

Course has some rough spots but if you roll the ball it is fine. Back nine layout is shortish but tight with some demanding shots required. Overall, this is a better value than some recent reviews suggest.
