We played Whispering Oaks. The course was in very good condition. The greens are superb and putted around 10-11on stimpmeter. The layout was very enjoyable. The Barkeeper in the Clubhouse is an excellent entertainer. We had a wonderful time. This is course is a Must Play Course

Played both of the courses. They were in excellent condition from tee to green. The consensus of our group was that both courses were rated 1 and 1A of the four courses we played. We will play both courses again next year on our return to Fort Myers.

Beautiful day, beautiful course. Excellent weather. And we played fairly well. The Whispering Oaks is one of our favorites as it has wide fairways and tough greens complexes. Typical Nicklaus design.

Great place to play. 36 holes makes for a good day. Starter, staff and members all very nice. The course was in great shape and the greens were at 11 on stimp meter. We will definitely go back again. This was our 3rd time there.

Both courses are in excellent condition. Whispering oak is more forgiving than Old orange

Very beautiful facility and carefully manicuredtee-boxes - fairways and greens. Restaurant and pro-shop withhigh-level service and nice terrace. We would have wished to getinformed that non-members are allowed to enter the resort onehour before tee-time

Enjoyed both courses - a good challenge without beingtoo tight off the tee. Outstanding greens that ran fast and true.Will be back for sure.

We played the Whispering Oak course. The fairways are wide which appealed to some of my partners. Course layout is beautiful and well maintained. Greens have a lot of undulations which makes them very difficult and fast. Overall this was a great cours

Played Whispering Oak. Very wide fairways let you hit driver without concern for lost balls. Greens are severely contoured and quick. A few greens were too severe but overall one of the best courses I have played in the area. Definitely worth a return

This was the jewel for the week. We played Whispering Oak. Greens were superb. I would suggest you look at putts from multiple angles. The layout was very creative and enjoyable. I will return.

We played Whispering Oaks at 7:57 am in 48° weather. The course was in very good condition. The greens are a pleasant surprise. Almost flawless and putted around 8-9 on stimpmeter. The layout was very enjoyable. We had a wonderful time. This is a course

My son and I enjoyed ourselves very much. Mr. Nicklaus certainly remembered the word 'undulation' when designing the greens at Whispering Oaks! It was challenging but fair. Perfect!

One of the better courses we played - even though ourcourse time was changed. No graphics to see how course set up - yet everyone personnel friendly and helpful.

About Verandah Old Orange Course
Verandah offers some of the finest golf you'll ever play. The quality of the two courses, Old Orange by Bobby Cupp or Whispering Oaks by Jack Nicklaus and Jack Nicklaus II, make choosing between them a challenge in itself. The course at Old Orange escorts you along towering trees and waterways. This is golf in its most natural state. Nicklaus said the Whispering Oaks harmonizes with the natural attributes of the community. "There are elements, such as large, native oak trees, that we were able to keep intact and utilize in the look and strategy of how the course plays." Golfers will experience Whispering Oak's true personality in its greens. Unique to the course, one green has a bunker style inspired by the Road Hole at St. Andrews, and another, No. 15, is close to 6,000 square feet, yet only 3,000 of that is usable for pin placements. Father and son took significant aprons off the tops of the greens, leaving only the perched areas as usable. There are some fun challenges to the greens at Verandah.
