The Estate Course (Bay Hill Estates) is located about 8 miles away, and features its own clubhouse with snack bar and pro shop, plus beautiful practice facilities. All five courses have carts with rear weather protectors, and coolers are also standard on the carts at the Estate Course. Guests playing any of the other four courses can fill up with complimentary ice and water at the clubhouse station on resort property. Tees and towels are also provided. On course yardage markers are positioned on the fairways and cart paths at 100, 150 and 200 yards, with 150 stakes also present on all par fours and fives. Each tee box has yardages plates, and color coded flags on the greens indicate the front, middle or back pin placements. Sprinkler heads on all courses (except the Estate Course) are also marked to the center of the green.

The photos in this review are of the Estate Course, which is located about 8 miles from the resort property. Free shuttle service from the resort to the course is available. The Estate Course is a wonderfully manicured championship facility that plays to 6700 yards, with ample fairways and small, raised, undulating green complexes. Water features are highlighted as 14 holes of hazards in play in some shape or form. There also are 81 sand bunkers along the course - the most of any of the five PGA National designs.

Four sets of tees play to distances and slopes measuring 6694 yards/138 slope, 6122 yards/137 slope, 5433 yards/125 slope for men and 156 for women and 4933 yards with a slope of 123 for ladies hitting from the forward sets. This is the most player friendly layout of the group, especially for women playing from the red tee boxes. The par five ninth with a rock retaining wall framing the front of the green is the most memorable holes, out of a group of fine holes that are built on a nicely landscaped, fairly level terrain.

The Estate compliments what was already a fine group of championship courses - we highly recommend a round here. For more info, visit our page for the course, with direct link to their website by clicking here
