Windy weather
Walked

A nice course gone bad.

Sadly, Homestead golf course has steadily gone downhill for the last 10 years. Little to no course maintenance. Despite very dry weather the fairways hadn't been mown in some time. Even the tee boxes were in rough shape. Greens are bumpy & slow. Bunkers are a blend of dirt & rocks. Not sure if ownership isn't willing to spend money or if they can't hire workers. The rates are low but you definitely get what you pay for.

Very muddy

Even though we had a few days of dry weather, the course is still muddy in lots of sections, course drainage could improve. Still a fun course and the price is right.

Fun Course,

How much do you want? This course can be long enough to challenge even single digit handicappers. The lakes sometimes extend in to the fairway, so take a good look before you tee off.

Overall I liked it and would play it again

Some of the greens were a little rough, but overall a nice track for a course entirely surrounded by houses. No one encouraging slow players to allow faster players to play through or pick up the pace.

Fun

Only thing that would make it better would be that the restaurant would be open for breakfast and there would be an alcohol serving cart attendant.

Will be back

This is our first time playing Homestead and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We played on a Saturday morning and the pace of play was great we played in four hours. Was able to get a good deal on golf now.

Worth the drive

Great layout. Greens were in good shape but the bunkers were pretty rough. Still a great bargain.

Resort style course in scenic setting

Wide fairways, simple layout with mostly level greens make the course approachable for all levels of play. Lower handicappers will enjoy the views of the mountain and enough challenge to satisfy.
