Amazing service and the food was delicious. Kudos to the new chef. This another Go-To spot for dinner fare.
Saturday afternoon tee time for party of 4. Booked tee time through golfnow. Course was full but we played in 4 1/2 hours. The practice chipping green and putting green were convenient to clubhouse and 1st tee. The course was challenging and lots of water on course but really doesn't come into play. Loved all the ponds with natural habitats for birds of all kinds. We would return to play again.
See all photos from Reba J. for Twin Isles Country Club
nice spot, under some construction which is understandable after the hurricane. nice quite club. we enjoyed al the wild life on the course. was very nice would return again.
Great course great greens little difficulty because it was the 1st time I have played here I am from California but absolutely love this course waterways and hazards seems like it has a lot more sand than most beaches but only added to the challenge
Pointing to a gater on the center island
First time here, starter wasn't the nicest guy, pace of play was pretty slow. Tee boxes aren't well taken care of. Also got hit into while on the green on a par 3. Cart died while being in the middle of the fairway on 18. Saw a gator tho so I gave 2 stars. If you're looking for a nice round of golf this isn't the place.
What a special little GEM located in the BSI neighborhood of Punta Gorda. We recently had the pleasure of dining here on "Roast Beef" buffet night and were in for a treat. Usually, buffet food is tired and dried out but here everything was kept fresh and delicious. The roast beef had it's own personal carver as well. (I'm sure there's some type of fancy name for a meat carver other than butcher...lol.) The wait staff was friendly and attentive. I was told they are offering free membership through the end of the year. Didn't get much more in terms of details but we just might. They do add an automatic 18% gratuity on their food bills. The dining rooms are clean and vibrant, the pool area inviting and the view of the golf course very relaxing and beautiful. I recommend stopping by for lunch or dinner but you must go with a member. Enjoy!

Twin Isles Country Club in Punta Gorda fights diversity to produce worthy golf on the Gulf
By Tim McDonald, Contributor
PUNTA GORDA, Fla. - Twin Isles Country Club has a bit of a schizophrenic history when it comes to the architectural aspect.
Originally built about 30 years ago with "input" from noted Florida architect Ron Garl, the course underwent a major renovation in 2000 under the brush of golf architect Chip Powell. Among other changes, they re-did the drainage and bunkering and added trees.
Then, Hurricane Charley had its "input," roaring over the course last year, taking out most of the trees Powell put in, not to mention devastating the clubhouse and other buildings - they found air-conditioning units in the parking lot and swimming pool.
Through it all, one of the better courses in the Punta Gorda area - named one of the top metro areas in the U.S. by Golf Digest - somehow emerged. The private course is beautifully laid out, with an interesting mix of yardages and holes. It's challenging enough, but not to the point the average hacker can't have a good round there.
"It's fairly challenging," Head Professional Steve Baisch said. "It's a fair course. Off every tee you have wide landing areas, but there's also some risk-reward out there. It's definitely a good risk-reward golf course."
They don't believe in taking it slow here; the first three holes are among the toughest on the course. The first two holes are doglegs around lakes, one right and one left, and the third is a 419-yard par 4 with water right and left that requires accuracy off the tee.
Some of the holes have greens that sit at angles to the fairway, others are doglegs that can be cut, but you risk getting into trouble at every turn. The course has water in play virtually every hole and bunkers that must be either narrowly avoided or carried to get to the best route to the green.
Twin Isles Country Club: The verdict
Twin Isles C.C. is definitely worth a visit, if you can get on the private club; it has reciprocal arrangements with other area courses, like many private facilities.
The conditioning is excellent and the course will only improve visually once they get into the tree replanting program in more earnest.
The fairways have good movement, there is imagination around the greens and the par 3s aren't throwaways; the course has some tough one-shotters.
Stay and Play
For those bed-and-breakfast, walk-around types, the Virginia House Bed and Breakfast in downtown Punta Gorda might be right up your alley. The place was built in the late 1880s as a place for Methodists to worship.
It has been restored to close to its original condition, after a series of ownership changes, and the result is what bed and breakfast enthusiasts would call quaint and charming: hardwood floors and walls, canopy beds, a working fireplace in the living room and antique fixtures. The claw-foot bath tub in the Chancel Suite is a treat. It's in a 100-year-old neighborhood and within a few blocks of the riverfront area, with small shops, museums and the downtown marina.
For you beach types, Palm Harbor Resort is one of those resorts that almost meets that marketing slogan all resorts insist on using - the word "unique." First of all, you can only get to it by boat or car ferry, though it does cost $50 to take the ferry about 75 yards over the waterway - you get a pass if you're staying at the resort.
It's a small, cozy barrier island with sweeping views of the Gulf of Mexico right outside your front window. No asphalt here at the resort, and precious few cars: most island residents and guests scoot around the island by golf cart. At the resort, the roads are made of shell, and you can hitch a ride with a passing cart if you don't want to rent one. You rarely see people wearing shoes and there's a slow, relaxing feel to the place.
The villas are privately-owned and furnished impeccably, with screened-in porches overlooking the beach, grass-topped dunes and Gulf. Sunsets can be spectacular. You can pretty much do anything concerned with water - kayaks and canoes for the hardy, beach umbrellas and lounges for the melanoma worshippers.
The resort has a little breakfast cafe that serves continental breakfast, and for lunch there's the pizzeria.
The Rum Bay Restaurant is open for lunch and dinner daily and has terrific baby back ribs, along with seafood and the kind of wacky drinks you expect from a beach resort. Since the villas have refrigerator and cooking facilities, there's also the Rum Bay Store next to the restaurant.
If you want to go to the mainland, Johnny Leverock's Seafood House is just a ferry ride away and overlooks the marina and yacht basin.
In Punta Gorda, try Mama Nunzio's for great Italian food. Get the seafood chowder and lasagna.

Historical Summary:
Twin Isles was purchased from a production run of Halibut schooners and converted to a custom naval architect design for Mr. Andrews. The intention was to use the vessel as a commuter boat from Vancouver to his personally owned estate on the Twin Islands in Desolation Sound. Following WWII the boat went to the Bay Area where it stayed for many years. She returned to the PNW where the current owners purchased her in 1985 and raised their family aboard. The children are now grown and have fled the nest leaving the parents with more room.

No, no, no. We weren’t trying to hit the residential building. We were trying to hit the hospital.
Russian propagandists now claim their target in Kharkiv was not a residential building but a police hospital. Their open admission of calls for war crimes is truly outrageous. Watch this and imagine it’s your Saturday afternoon pic.twitter.com/tP2BLSUoT8 — Maria Avdeeva (@maria_avdv) June 22, 2024
Well, what can ya do? You can’t hide in your basement 24/7.

In this video a Russian soldier is wounded by an FPV drone. While he is lying in the road and his comrade walks up to him, he motions to his head. His comrade then finishes him off with a shot to the head.
Life is brutal in the Russian Army.
You can believe that this is the result of climate change if you like, but clearly this is the wrath of God at work. Expect to see locust swarms and frogs next.

Lukashenko says being president of Belarus is “fiddle-faddle” and that he dreams of milking cows.
