Played this on a "Golf Pkg" deal two nights three days (18ea) @ $350 per person in a great condo setting. My guess would be $50 is what i would pay for 18/cart. Saddlebrook is a great layout (tight)that has the toughest greens I've ever putted on. Buy the yardage book and stay BELOW the hole or your 2nd putt will be 6'-10' from the cup. No flat putts on either courses and pin placements can break a good round w/ an 5 putt green from 4'. Very challinging layouts and when you add 20mph winds, the forced carries into the heavy guarded greens can make pars feel like birds. Bring your range finder as MANY of the sprinkler heads aren't marked and the many doglegs make distance a challenge, as no GPS on carts. Shot 38 on front and 47 back and then the oppsite the next day with wind and hitting greens in the wrong place a BIG factor. Take your own drinks/food as everything is way overpriced, compared to my northern courses.

Would travel: 120-300 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area
