We recently had lunch at the Plantation Golf & Country Club pool bar in Venice and enjoyed both the…read morerelaxed atmosphere and the beautiful poolside setting. We started with the grilled wings. They had good flavor, but I would have preferred them cooked a bit longer for a little more crispness and doneness. The salmon, however, was outstanding. It was perfectly cooked, moist, and flavorful, and paired beautifully with the sweet potato, which was equally delicious. It was easily the highlight of the meal. We also tried the tuna poke bowl. The tuna was fresh, but the dish could have benefited from a more generous portion and a bit more seasoning to make the flavors really stand out. What made the experience enjoyable overall was the laid-back poolside atmosphere. It's a great place to relax, enjoy a meal, and spend time with friends or family. While a few menu items could use some refinement, the excellent salmon and inviting setting will definitely bring us back.

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!

Holes 12 through 17 are directly on Charlotte Harbor with some tee boxes and greens just steps from the water. Can be breezy at times & you will see Ospreys, iguanas and other wildlife. So manicured, I don't think I saw a weed or bare spot on any hole. Lunch available at a halfway house and at the small clubhouse. No tee times necessary, you just show up to play. Downside is you have to stay at The Inn to play. But you can get special golf packages such as a Stay & Play.

It was a delight to encounter employees who clearly love their jobs, and want you to enjoy your time golfing, dining or exercising. The facilities feature the most up to date technology for both golfing and exercising. There are two on site restaurants. One is a bistro style eatery, open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The best grits and bacon I have EVER had! The other restaurant, The Albatross, is a sexy, high end steak and seafood spot. I'd put the meals I've had there up against any famous big city dining establishment. The lodging for out of town guests may be one of my favorite amenities. The finishes, the decor, the comfort ... the luxury! There is nothing else like it in this area of Florida. Though I am not a golfer myself, I do know that the greens are immaculate enough to host an annual LPGA event. Should you be lucky enough to be invited by a member to visit The Pelican, it is an invitation you should accept!
