Greens aerated early August but playable by 8.19.17 and running about 9 on a Stimpmeter. Fairways were cut very short and the same for apron areas around the greens. Tight lies from fairways were very common as were areas under Repair. This course plays 5700 yards from the tips. Water is in play on every hole including some holes with more than 1 shot over water. Expect to lose several balls if your shot accuracy and consistency leave something to be desired. Staff is helpful and friendly. Carts do not have GPS. Flags have reflectors for laser rangefinder devices. The course is sited very close to the causeway to and from Sanibel, but there are no Bay views from the course and there are no Dunes. There are many well maintained sand traps. Pace of play in August is set by the skill of your group rather than by the number of golfers on the course. A ball lost in water here is unlikely to be found.

First the good - very nice and helpful staff. And they have newer greens and no more sand greens! Best golf option on Sanibel. I liked how the planted wildflowers on the previously empty sandy areas - pretty! Bad: Not a great golf experience if you are used to more open championship style golf courses. But we have to remember we are on an island and space is at a premium. The fairways were some sort of grass that didnt allow for a lot of roll. There was also some type of weed (like creeping charlie) surrounding the greens which made it really difficult for chipping and greenside shots. The sand bunkers werent raked - but that is a fault mostly of the golfers and yes there is a lot of sand but I cant understand golfers who cant be bothered to at least try to rake the bunker.

This is a great little golf course. Front side offers lots of opportunities to score and the back is legitimately challenging. The whole place seems to be very well run. Played several times during peak season and always finished in about 4 hours or less. Lots of water. If you tend to hit is sideways, be prepared. We played with a couple of different guys who used up at least a dozen balls each. Regardless, everyone we played with really seemed to enjoy the layout.

Very challenging for the average golfer, but not overly punishing. If youre not accurate, play it safe or bring a bunch of balls. Friendly, helpful staff & great course conditions...the practice green was the most immaculate Ive ever seen & half the holes on back 9 could be a signature hole on other courses. Well be back to play it again...and again

2x gespielt im Oktober 16 Eine sehr schöner Platz, der Driver kann man ruig im Bag lassen, genug Bälle mitnehmen. Vorsicht vor den Alligatoren! Komme gerne wieder.

Wife loved course and service. Definitely a more challenging course with lots of water challenges. Saved money using discount coupon for multi-day play. Baileys store had lightly used balls for sale to augment lost balls in water. Alligators are on site so dont enter ponds to retrieve a ball!

Eine sehr schöne Runde Golf mit viel Natur. Bringt extra Bälle mit!! Essen ist sehr teuer und unspektakulär.

Total blast! Course was lush with flowers and green grass. Impeccable greens with daunting water hazards. Lost more balls in one round than I did all season but I will definitely go back and redeem myself!⛳️

Great layout. The whole experience was special. Actually hit Big Dogg more than I would have expected. The Back 9 is superb, but the front aint too shabby either. Pro Shop was great and so was the Starter.

I love the Dunes Golf & Tennis Club. The course is in great shape, their scramble at certain times of the year is a lot fun. Their newly renovated clubhouse looks great too.

If you are visiting Sanibel or nearby, a nice golf course to play. Nice fairways and greens. A little tight on some holes but fun course.

Water on 17 of 18 holes. Alligators are never far away. A little slow at times, but a well maintained track.
