Bellaire Golf Course The Villages — First Look, Scorecard, Photos & Early Reviews
The Bellaire Golf Course in The Villages is now officially open near the new Eastport waterfront district. It brings another executive-level option to golfers in the southern communities. Although some residents were unsure about the course level at first, the official scorecard clearly shows Bellaire as a Level 2 Executive Course.
We visited Bellaire during opening week to photograph the course, starter shack, Hole 1, the yardage card, and the full scorecard. While we haven’t played the course yet, several Villagers shared their early feedback. Many described the new Bellaire Golf Course The Villages layout as a mix of strengths and challenges.

Here is the yardage card available at the starter shack. It also includes the Black, Gold, and Green tee distances for the Bellaire layout.
Early Golfer Reactions
After speaking with several golfers who completed a round at Bellaire during opening week, here’s what stood out:
- 🌿 Deep rough — multiple golfers said it’s very easy to lose your ball.
- 🏗️ Surrounding areas remain under construction — new homes and landscaping should improve the course’s overall look.
- 🚰 A visible water treatment tank sits beside the course — many expect it to blend in once the neighborhood fills in.
- ⛳ Tee boxes sit close to prior greens — some players felt exposed to shots from the group behind them.
Even with the mixed feedback, most golfers felt happy to have another nearby option. Its location within walking distance of Eastport and the new restaurants and entertainment made the course even more appealing.
