Olde Hickory Golf and Country Club 14670 Old Hickory Blvd Olde Hickory Golf and Country Club, Fort Myers, FL 33912

"I played Olde Hickory Golf Club in Fort Myers, FL this week using my SWF PGA GolfPass ($50). It’s a private club only open to the public between May-October using the GolfPass."

"Nice golf coarse and good food. It's a private club though so you can only play there if invited as a guest or you live there (used to have a house there)"

"I was a guest at this private club, and truly enjoyed the course. Greens are nice and fast, and it's fairly easy to get into trouble. That makes for a fun and challenging day."

"Stellar place! Wonderful place to live and golf. Fantastic community feeling. Typical upscale development that includes condos and single-family homes."

"I played Olde Hickory Golf Club in Fort Myers, FL this week using my SWF PGA GolfPass ($50). It’s a private club only open to the public between May-October using the GolfPass. My overall experience was very good as this course is both scenic and playable for mid-to-high handicappers. The course is in very good shape (May 24, 2022) but I am concerned about the use of artificial green dye used to keep the grass looking healthy (see pics). The dye got all over my shoes even though I drove a golf cart. The fairways are generous and while each hole has some challenges I found the course to be very playable and fair. It’s designed by Ron Garl who is a Floridian and prodigious designer of courses all over the world. The greens are in great shape, very large and roll pure. The homes and condos that line this course aren’t spectacular or very nice in some cases but the landscaping and course design overcome any shortfalls around it. There’s a lot of water on this course but it’s only risky on a few holes off the tee. The carts have a great GPS system and are very comfortable. The men’s locker room has poker tables and all the grooming accoutrements that you would expect in a country club. The bar in the clubhouse is nice, very large with scenic views of the driving range (which is also a great feature. Range balls included with your greens fees). Don’t wear your hat in the bar! I recommend this course if you’re able to get on. It lacks the untouched, natural Florida biosphere that I love to see on courses like Corkscrew or Raptor Bay (soon to be renamed Salt Leaf). But I still really enjoyed this course and hope to play it again."
