The golf course is in really nice shape. The greens are really lush and green is a little slow. Fairway and greens are also nice green grass which is great for end of March during drought. However, the course layout is not our favorite, that's why the 4 stars....I would give 4.5 if I could. The back 9 is a bit chaotic. Tricky to figure out how to find the next hole around 16, and there are 3 greens really close together with people all over.... We worried about hitting them on tee off and carts were running back and forth in front of us. But the good conditions of the course is a plus and they have excellent practice facilities.

Played this course on Christmas Eve. Pro shop staff Eric and the rest of the employees still working were extremely accommodating, welcoming and sincere on the day before a Holiday despite me arriving a couple minutes before the pro shop closed (unknowingly) without a tee time. Played in roughly 4 hours and the course is in fantastic shape compared to when I played a couple years ago. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Clearwater or in the Pinellas County area.

The greens are really nice. The sandtraps also very nice and well groomed. The fairways in very good condition. The tee boxes and a few spots kinda rough.

🏌️♂️ Course Review: Clearwater Country Club 🌟
Hey everyone, just wrapped up a round at the renowned Clearwater Country Club, a course that boasts a member list including the likes of John Daly! Here’s my take:
🔹 Layout Quirks:
The course’s layout is one of a kind, with some holes so closely packed that large metal fences separate tees and greens for safety. This feature was definitely appreciated, especially when an errant approach shot from the group behind me nearly turned my round into a close call!
🔹 Condition:
The course condition was top-notch. The greens rolled true and were well-maintained, offering a fair speed - not too fast but far from slow. The fairways were in good shape, and although the rough was a bit on the thinner side, it still provided enough of a test.
🔹 Value for Money:
In terms of value, Clearwater Country Club hits the sweet spot. For what you pay, the quality and experience you get are more than worth it. It’s a fantastic deal for golfers looking for a quality round without breaking the bank.
🔹 Walkability:
Many golfers choose to walk this course due to its compact nature. Not only does this add to the enjoyment of your round, but it’s also a nice little saving on cart fees. Perfect for those who enjoy a leisurely stroll between shots.
🔹 Playability:
At 6200 yards from the tips, it’s not the longest course, but it’s no walk in the park either. Strategic water hazards make you rethink pulling out the driver on several holes, adding a nice tactical layer to the game.
🔹 Overall Impression:
Clearwater Country Club is a course that balances challenge with fun. It’s ideal for golfers who value precision and enjoy a strategic game. And with the course being so compact, it’s a great place to enjoy a walk and soak in the surroundings.

Any golf course good enough for Thee JOHN DALY is far too classy for us!!! We had a great day of golf here, #1 FUN, and we only played the front nine... twice. We are looking forward to our next visit. All the staff was excellent and bar staff offered prompt service and extra ice at the turn. Greens were true and skies stayed blue even as lightning threatened nearby.
