Tee shot on #8 par 3 Photo submitted by tmlo on 05/05/2013
Sorry this course
This course is in a very bad shape!!
The fairways are bald, sandy and almost no grass
The sand bunkers in a horrible shape.
Over all I rate this course 4 out of 10
Don’t waste your money
There are many other courses in this area that are much better manicured for the same money.
I give it two thumbs down way down sorry!!

Packed In the Sandbox
Played the Champ course on a Saturday. They packed us in like sardines. Would have taken 5 hours, if we didn’t replay the front nine. Groundskeepers should be fired. Majority of the tee boxes are sand boxes. I’ve played the Glades Course at this location as well. Same thing there. It’s slightly better than that course. Staff are friendly, and it’s easy to get on. But be warned they stack you on top of each other.

Underwhelming.
First time here in many years. Disappointed. Tees are generally in bad shape. Fairways about the same and approaches to greens even worse. Greens are quite good. Only particular plus is reasonably priced versus Ft.Lauderdale market.
