This is a really nice course. They have twilight hours so you can golf til it gets dark!…read more The course is set up as 3 nine holes so you can combine any way you want. Marsh. Creek. Oaks. All three are gorgeous and well maintained. I was genuinely shocked to show up at 5:30pm and be able to get 15 holes in before dark. There was no one in front of me!!! I stopped by again the next day to play, around 5pm, and I was able to finish 18. This time, I ran into a kids lesson- so the instructor said to skip two holes ahead and come back and finish at the end. I also ran into a group of 2 but they hustled when they saw me coming. The twilight price is $57 and change, which to me, is nothing, but compared to courses nearby, I can see why people don't come here. They can play for $35 or even $26 at other courses. However, you get what you pay for. This course is really great. Lots of nature. Challenging. Water stations and clean bathrooms throughout. On the earlier night, the shop had a rack of sale items outside. I wanted to take a closer look but didn't- wanted to start playing. Maybe one day I'll go back and buy something. Ladies stuff looked nice. They have a chipping, putting, and driving range near the club. Carts are comfortable , no GPS. Courses are easy to navigate with signs on where to enter and exit the fairways. I like this idea- keeps the course nice. I found a lot of lost balls while playing, especially in the water. Homes line some of the holes and I got some applause while playing haha. I would recommend this course but then again, I don't want this secret getting out. I hope this place stays empty cuz I like playing fast!

Beautiful course just wish they had tees and clean towels in the carts…read more There is no GPS -bring your range finder!

In the 1920's during Florida's land boom years, women's clubs were formed as a way to give back to…read morethe community with civic projects. They became an outlet for women to get out of the house and to assert their independence by allowing them to get involved in politics during a time when they were expected to be homemakers. Women's clubs helped to launch the women's rights movement. The Punta Gorda Woman's Club was formed in 1925 when three clubs consolidated, The Ladies Fortnightly Club, The Women's Club Civic Association, and The Married Ladies Club. They came together to be able to be able to build a one story Spanish Mission style building in 1926 on land in downtown Punta Gorda donated by Judge William Fenmore Cooper from Illinois. Throughout the years the building housed stage productions, dances, meetings and dinners. The building housed the first library for 30 years and during WWII it was used as a USO. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1991. In 2000 the Woman's Club transferred the deed to the building to Punta Gorda Historical Society. The building is available for rent for private functions from the Woman's Club.

Food came out fast-. The only thing I didn't love was I felt the bowl of soup serving was really light. I had filled up on the homemade bread and could only eat about a third of the bowl. When we packed the rest to come home for dinner it wasn't even 3/4 full in the ~estimated~ 1 cup to go container. The soup bowl was very shallow. I think the serving could have been heartier. Reservations likely needed. We were there on a mid weekday and it was pretty packed. It was a drive for us but we will be back.

This is a beautiful place and a great idea for a farm restaurant, its a whole experience so…read moresomething great to enjoy with family and friends. Our server was ok and in general the service was good, maybe can improve a little on the timing and explanations provided but more than anything it was a little hard to get the attention of our server sometimes. We went for brunch and there were good options and food was average... the highlights of the meal were: The Sourdough bread with honey butter and preserves and the outdoor bar with delicious cocktails and the best bartender (Jackson). The farm part is also fun but is very small only a few animals. It's cool you can buy drinks and walk with them while you enjoy the farm. It was a fun activity to do on our vacation but if we want to do it again we might try to go for lunch or another farm with similar option.

The location is easily located via gps and is mainly long stretches on the same two roads before arriving. The driveway is lovely and secluded with ponds to look at on the short drive up to the venue location. The barn, main house and bridal suite are set back perfectly. They are grand but still inviting. You can tell that time went into decorating this venue because no detail was spared. From family bibles and photos of a wedding, to wedding dresses of the brides in the family- you feel like family and warmly welcomed. The owners were so warm, kind and accommodating. There is a large tree on the property that was perfect for the ceremony portion of the wedding. The grounds have plenty of room for tents to be set up for a lovely reception as well. This is a well thought out venue for a perfect outdoor wedding. My ONLY warning is - you must love animals. Luckily, we all adore them and we're so happy to see cats, large dogs(kept inside the main house and were quiet the whole time) and horses. They even allowed our bride to take some photos near one of their gentle horses. You will NOT be disappointed with this location or family. They were a blessing and made the whole event so spectacular for my best friend!
