No golf course can have perfect conditions year round; a lot of courses in the SW Florida region have been hurt by the heavy rainfall this spring. I have been to 10-15 different courses in the area this year. Spanish Wells is no exception and the greens and fairways were pretty beat up. This is not why I am leaving a negative review. The man who checked us in would only let us play 9 holes as guests which was surprising because the course was completely empty. We did not see another group during our 9. He was also extremely rude and told us that is was just their policy- it is not because I booked 18 here this February as a guest. It blows my mind that the course wouldn't want to take in as much revenue as possible right now because that place is just burning money. They were building another clubhouse (much larger and nicer) but the construction halted because of a lack of funds. You can tell they have stopped caring about the conditions of the course and the customer service inside the clubhouse. This place is heading in a TERRIBLE direction, I would advise anybody reading this to golf anywhere else but Spanish Wells.

I should have realised things were not as they should be when I drove into the car park, it was almost empty, the guy at the bag drop was pleased to see me, he must have been bored to tears doing nothing. He directed me to the Pro shop where I met the lady pro, this is when I found that I must have had a "senior moment" as I had turned up a day early for my game, I thought it quite funny, the lady didn't even crack a smile, never mind, all I wanted to do was play golf, I had only travelled from the UK for this holiday, but only driven just over a mile from where I was staying. Off I went to play the East & South nines. The first tee was extremely scruffy, the rest turned out to be the same. The fairways were in good shape, but very wet, there are lots of water hazards and the water level is high, this is probably why the fairways are so wet. The greens had lots of brown and bare patches on them, the cut was high, and all had several unrepaired pitch marks. I only played 13 holes, to me this is a very boring and uninteresting course, which needs some serious TLC. Also there are too many look alike holes. If you like a bit of a challenge there are far better courses out there to spend your hard earned $ on than this. Go find a par three course, you'll have a better time!

When I went into the pro shop the staff were jurks to kids, the greens are horrible and the food is terrible Never coming back to play/ Spanish well resident

We played here 2 weeks ago and found the North course in very poor condition. It had recently rained and honestly the course should have been closed. I was especially concerned because My daughter is building a house in Cardova and plans to Golf there. I hope maintenance improves so She isn't disappointed.

This is a great location to play golf. There are three 9 hole courses. I see little evidence of crab grass. The price to play during the in season is reasonable and this fact is proven by number of people who are on the course at any given time. I have played each course (the north, the south and east) and can say wholeheartedly that each of the tee boxes are in great shape. The fairways are well maintained and the greens all look fine. The people that work in the pro shop are friendly and professional. There are several starters and bag boys who do all they can to make sure that you enjoy golfing on the Spanish Wells golf courses. The driving range is a great place to get warmed up before you play or work out any issues after you play. You will find these courses to be fun yet challenging. If at any time you find you are thirsty you can buy something to drink from the beverage cart girl who comes by several times as you play. All the natural scenery is beautiful and you can be easily distracted by the fish in the ponds, the sight and sounds of birds everywhere as you move from hole to hole. Sorry I have not gone upstairs so I can't fairly rate the food or staff.
