Twin Isles Country Club

Detailed description of Twin Isles Country Club

Twin Isles Country Club, previously named Burnt Store Marina & Country Club, is a Private, 18 hole golf course located in Punta Gorda, Florida.

The Twin Isles Country Club golf course opened in 1988. The course was designed by Ron Garl and Mark McCumber. The course was renovated in 2000 by golf architect Chip Powell.

This Private Club allows a limited number of outside golfers available through its affiliation with Pope Golf.

Twin Isles Country Club has tree-lined fairways that vary from tight to open in width and are well bunkered. Water hazards come into play on several holes. The greens are always well maintained and putt true. Reciprocal play is allowed only with other local private clubs. The private course is beautifully laid out, with an interesting mix of yardages and holes. It's challenging enough, but not to the point the average hacker can't have a good round there.

The first three holes are among the toughest on the course. The first two holes are doglegs around lakes, one right and one left, and the third is a 419-yard par 4 with water right and left that requires accuracy off the tee.

Some of the holes have greens that sit at angles to the fairway, others are doglegs that can be cut, but you risk getting into trouble at every turn. The course has water in play virtually every hole and bunkers that must be either narrowly avoided or carried to get to the best route to the green.
