Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Style Links
Par 71
Length 6484 yards
Slope 125
Rating 70.7

The Links of Lake Bernadette enjoys verdant landscaping and a rolling terrain that are perfectly complemented by mature and towering pines. At 6,400 yards, the golf course is seemingly short but it feels like it plays much longer due to frequent doglegs that can be found throughout. Six of the par 4s play over 400 yards and a few par 3s measure over 200 yards, which also helps the course feel longer. Water hazards and bunkers come into play but they are balanced by large greens and wide fairways that make for easier approaches. Although beginners won't feel out of place and there are four different sets of tees, the golf course boasts several tricky holes that will challenge even the best players. One of these, the 163-yard 13th, was once called the best par 3 in Tampa Bay.

Nice Course

The course was a little damp, possibly from rain the day before. Greens were slow compared to what I'm used to playing on, but they were fair. Nice snack bar, friendly people. Would visit again.

Good value

With an increase in the fertilizer budget this course could be soooo much better . And it would be nice if the greens were cut every day !

Too many golfers

Need to spread tee times
Had to wait every shot
Quit after 7 holes
Very very nice staff
Did give a rain check
Would b much more bearable if tee times were 10 min apart

Improving course

The course is improving. The greens were a mixture of greens and brown but it didn't affect the roll. the fairways had some bare areas, but moving the ball to grass helped. The course is challenging for most players.

Could use some TLC

The tee boxes, greens and fairways could use some TLC. Fertilizer, over seeding and aerating. Some times had to move the ball quite a way to place the ball on grass. Sprinklers were working but still ... ?

Bad Experience

Course I’d dry and many areas in and around the fairways had not grass, all dirt.
Pace of play nearly 3 hours to play 9 holes. Allow groups of 5 on the course. I move to the area three months ago hoping I’d have a nice course to play on. I will never go back.
Pro shop lady was rude and struggled performing her job.
