Each Fort Myers course has been given a rating of A, B or C.  The grade has been determined by either myself or fellow players based upon our own personal experiences playing them.

A Courses: These are first class courses that are well maintained with a good degree of difficulty for the average player and worthy of the drive to play.

B Courses: These courses are In good shape and a little easier to play, but you might not want to play them more than once a season.

C Courses: These courses are ones you might want to play because they are close by, inexpensive and easy, but not really memorable.

I am always looking to keep this information as up-to-date and accurate as possible.  Please e-mail me or call for more detailed information on prices for homes, fees and availability on the Fort Myers real estate below and all the rest!
