Accommodated our late arrival and change of plans with courteous assistance. Beautiful greens, challenging yet forgiving layout. We had a great round. Excellent post round lunch followed. Neat and clean. Proshop well stocked and classy.

In season prices are excellent. 3, nine hole courses. Played 2 and will come back for dinner and drinks... Tee boxes are excellent. Greens are fast and excellent. Fairways are fast and excellent. There is plenty of shaded areas as well as water hazards and sand traps. Lost a lotta balls here... The nature is amazing as I saw turtles, egrets, loons, gators, and huge fish.

One thing that hasn’t wavered much since I started writing about golf over 15 years ago is my thoughts on “executive” courses. “Way too short and not challenging enough,” were two thoughts that constantly crept into my head. After all, why waste hard-earned money on greens fees for a course that spans 3,800 yards when I can play a course that’s twice as long more challenging and will make me use every club in my bag. Then I played at Burnt Store Marina Country Club. The 27-hole “executive course” at Burnt Store Marina Country Club was designed by golf course architect Ron Garl and PGA TOUR Golf Professional Mark McCumber who have done a masterful job of creating a short course that is both challenging and enjoyable regardless of how good a golfer you are. Water comes into play on at least 22 of the 27 holes and there is a nice mixture of par 3s and par 4s. The three par 5 holes (five for the ladies) offer many golfers a good chance to make up a stroke or two. Each nine-hole course offers golfers 4 sets of tees. The Blue tees are the longest, followed by Yellow, Silver, and Green. The scorecard offers a couple of “combo” yardages and there are three different handicaps available. That makes for yardages that are sure to please every golfer! At 1,777 yards from the Blue tees, The Osprey Course is the shortest. It also has the most challenging and intimidating hole on the entire 27-hole layout. Number 1 is a short, 322-yard par 4 with a very difficult tee shot, especially if you’re playing the course for the first time and aren’t sure how far you can hit your tee shot and remain dry. The Heron Course is home to the two longest par threes on the entire layout. Number 3 plays 203 yards from the Blue tees. Water comes into play on the right side and three bunkers guard the front and right side of the green. One of these bunkers sits right in the middle of the green and needs to be carried off the tee. There’s a small bailout area on the left side if you’re feeling overwhelmed. It’s a very challenging hole. The Pelican Course starts with an interesting par 4. At 322 yards, its length isn’t going to overwhelm many players. There’s a large tree on the right side as well as a lake that makes up the entire right side. What makes this hole interesting is the large mound that sits in the middle of the fairway in the landing area and can leave some interesting lies for your approach shot. A well-played tee shot will leave an approach of around 100 yards into a long, crowned green that slopes sharply from back to front with a deep bunker on the right. During my visit, I saw several golfers taking advantage of the practice facilities. There’s a full-length aqua range where you can hit every club in your bag and a large putting green so that you can get the speed of the greens down. No reason to not pay your best when you hit the first tee. BSMCC has worked steadily at improving the course and is committed to providing an enjoyable golfing experience in addition to the social events offered to the BSMCC members. General Manager John Abbott also wants the public to know that the once private Linkside Café restaurant is now open to the public all year round. Executive Chef Renzo Barriga has put his spin on some signature dishes including Salmon Teriyaki and Chicken Marsala and the portions won’t have you leaving hungry. During the season, they are open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Membership is open to everyone and runs from Nov 1st to Oct 31st. Several membership categories are available including Social and Seasonal memberships and a Gold Card membership with charging privileges. If you’re renting a unit for any length of time, check to see if it comes with membership privileges. In addition to a scenic and challenging 27-hole golf course, the privately gated Burnt Store Marina waterfront community is home to more than 1940 residences and is considered a first-class yachting resort with 525 in-water slips, plus 450 dry docks. Condos, villas, townhomes, and single-family dwellings are available for rent and purchase.
