This 6-7 foot gator was hanging out on the Highlands course # 12 water hazard. My ball landed about eight feet away. So... Analyzing which club would be best for my shot AND self defense.

We have alligators... if you visit Sarasota they will not be hard to find. Just go to any golf course or large water retention pond.

Magnolia Pointe, BW Signature Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice hotel. Staff was very friendly. Great breakfast that changed daily. Only disappointment was that the pool was shared with the sister hotel next door and you had to go across the parking lot to get to it. Not the most convenient and not very private at all. "
