Heron/Eagle at Okeeheelee Golf Course
About
Okeeheelee Golf Course boasts 27 scenic holes of championship golf. The holes are divided into three nine-hole courses that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. Named after the wildlife that inhabit the course, the Osprey, Heron, and Eagle share the same beautiful landscape but each one offers a different set of challenges. Okeeheelee means 'quite waters, ' a name that comes from the tranquil views that stretch to Clear Lake. The Heron/Eagle golf course will test your target golf skills. The course features elevated greens surrounded by bunkers and fairways lined with tall trees and deep rough. It is a challenging but fair test that is still player-friendly enough for a range of skill levels. With three different course options there is plenty of variety, but the Okeeheelee golf courses are accessible as well with five sets of tees each

First round here
This course has a good layout and is in amazing condition for a municipal course. The greens were perfectly cut, the only suggestion I could make is a request to post notice of date of aeration and sanding. The greens were firm and consistent in speed. The layout is challenging and I’ll look forward to playing here again. Played Eagle/Osprey
Greens were challenging, but great!
Greens were firm and fast! Tee time was at 4:05 so only got 17 holes in (carts need to be in at 7:45),but enjoyed this course and will be coming back!
Excellent
The course was in the best shape I’ve ever seen and I’ve been playing there for over 20 years
Great value
I love finding municipal courses in good condition with a strong layout. Good greens. Intriguing holes. No food in the clubhouse for now. I highly recommend
Wowzers!
Wow is all I can say. I've never played a public golf course in such great shape. From tee to green course is impeccable. HATS OFF TO EVERYONE, FOR MAKING THIS THE BEST GOLF COURSE IN S.FLA
Wowzers is right! What an amazing review. Thank you so much for taking the time to share it. The golf course is in amazing shape with 18 of the 27 holes featuring brand-new greens and the final 9 will be regrassed this summer.
Good
I have been playing this course since it opened and It
has improved continuously.
Thank you for the kind words and five-star review! We have completed our greens renovation project on 18 of our 27 holes and will be completing the final 9 (Heron) this summer. Long story short, get ready for the course to be even better next time you play!
Nice course
Course is nice but tee off was not actually a discount price compared to the course price.
Thank you for giving us a try! Your best bet for booking is to visit PBCGolf.com as we don't discount our tee times on third-party websites. See you again soon!
Good course
Good course layout conditions very good friendly staff
Thank you for spending the day with us and for taking the time to leave a review. We hope you will return for another round very soon.
Windy was an understatement
The course played grea, except for the dry firm grass conditions, the windy was pretty much 25mph all day, and the course played with 3-4 groups on each hole for the first 9 holes, need better spacing when conditions are so windy to give more time for each group to clear the previous hole or field.
Thank you so much for recommending Okeeheelee Golf Course! We are thrilled that you enjoyed yourself and are happy to report that F&B will be returning in early August.
