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.

Not great

If you like nice courses, with cart girls, nice greens, driving ranges and general amenities - this is not the place for you. If you like cheap golf and are not concerned with the above, you’ll find this place to be just fine.

Horrible Greens

The course was decent. A few muddy spots from recent rains, but not bad. However, the greens were horrible. Not mowed, so speed and break was totally nullified. They were the same when we played here two weeks ago.

Walk in’s are excessive.

Purposely picked a time that I saw was fully open and was surprised that the course was PACKED. The seniors in the community clearly are comfortable clogging up the course whenever they feel like it. Only played 9 holes and left. They need to do a better job controlling the course.

Awful

I made the turn and waited about 10 min at the grill counter to get some water and ice, there was no one at the golf check in counter either, I looked into the office, but did not see anyone. Eventually a older man came out with a blue shirt on and I asked him if I could get some ice. He gave me a dirty look, never said a word, but pointed with his nose to the young lady coming out of the office. She was nice and gave me ice and water. Not a good!!

I live five minutes from the course and have played it many times, because I had a friend who was a member, but moved away, after reading some of the recent reviews I decided to give it another try. The tee boxes were a mess and the greens were awful, super slow. I won't be back!!!!!!

Other than the greens being sanded that day, the overall condition of the course is very good.

Great for the money

This course is great for the money and has enough challenge in there to make you think about your shots and plan it out. I’ve had a great time at this course! A couple of the greens need some attention, but I will deff be back to play soon!

Fun layout, great staff

If you want to get out and work on your game and enjoy a fun course, this is it.

Pro shop front desk was very friendly young lady who was very helpful, geez she also did the snack bar. Which is perfect to grab something at the turn.

They just punched and aerated the greens recently , so a little bumpy and slow. But in a few weeks will be nice.

Ill be back.

Need to upgrade

This seemed like an old course with no restrooms on the course, No Ball washers on any holes, 3 garbage cans on thecwhold course and No Beverage cart the entire day at 90 degree weather. Will not play again as there are too many issues that I know will never get addressed. Too many greens were in bad shape to putt.

Shocked and Sad

The course is nice and would be a great place to play if A LOT of thins change.

I played this course with a buddy who said the last time he played was 2009.

The maintenance of this course and the upkeep was HORRIBLE! Every single green had weeds growing all over the place! Every tee box had dead grass everywhere!

I can honestly say that I have finally played a course that absolutely seems like they have no intention of upkeep on this course other than cutting some grass.

I most likely will never play this course again.

not worth the money

green conditions were very bad, tee boxes were poor. Hot day and no water coolers on the course.

Players were jumping from hole to hole and went in front of us on number 10. No ranger to keep people in line.
