DeBary Golf & Country Club

Course was in good shape but it was wet in several area’s from all the rain.

This course layout, while challenging, had some condition concerns; some fairways were thin or with grassless sections, some were roped off and difficult to access, and some greens were too thin. Perhaps this was due to the drought conditions in the area? The presence of multiple tees was helpful for beginners as well as the better golfers. I would definitely play this course again.

The course overall was in decent shape. Some of the greens had a fungus that wasn’t there the last time I played two weeks ago. The fairways are pretty good and have grass in most places. The course is a fun challenging layout. The staff is generally friendly. The only issue I have is slow play being allowed. We were stacked up 3-Deep on some holes and did not see a Ranger all day. We ended up skipping the last three holes because at that rate it was going to be a five hour plus round. Unfortunately, most golf courses these days do not have a range with the balls to tell groups to skip ahead and speed up.

Nice layout and wide fairways make it fun for me to play at my level Could shoot on the 80’s after a few more rounds of play/practice. I wish the conditions were better around the greens. Missing the green by a little can result in a bad lie and a difficult up and down. Otherwise I like the course and I’ll bee back.

The course could use investment and water,

Tee blocks were sparse on most holes,greens were fast but patchy

5of us 3som&2som showed up early enough to hit some balls.went to the starter who got us out a few minutes early, off we go ,was looking forward to the round because the course had always been in good shape,which it was this day also.That being said we had one complaint. Every hole was roped off so much that we had to walk so far we might as well have left the cart with the starter. I am 72 with a double miniscus tear on my right knee, needless to say I was dragging by the time we got done as were the other three that didn't have any injuries. there was no reason for all that rope , every fairway was fine not too wet or dry

Conditions are improving although there are still several roped off fairways. The grass is coming in on the affected fairways. Greens are very good. Sandtraps are steep and difficult but well maintained. Here's the problem. There were 3 5somes in a row clogging up the front 9. One is bad enough but 3! DCC needs to do a better job of marshaling and break these groups up.

This course is typically the nicest public course within 15-20 miles of Debary. It’s not in good shape right now. Paid $29 so it’s ok for that price. Would be upset if I paid more. Layout is great. Hopefully they figure out what’s wrong soon. 2-3 holes are cart path only.

Unfortunately we wasted our time on this course. My girlfriend(beginner golfer) and I (Decent golfer), booked this trip weeks in advanced. Well no where did it mention the NCAA women’s teams would be practicing that morning. The Women’s teams were not the issue, the staffing and clubhouse tee times boss were the problem. For starts the kitchen was packed when we arrived to the point we almost didn’t get a meal before the driving range, then when arriving for our tee time we were pushed back 10 mins. No big deal. Well because of being pushed back we had to wait behind a 6 person group (which if you read reviews is normal here somehow). So after rushing our food (food staff was genuinely very nice) we had to play behind a 6 group. Well that stacked play up and we had people behind us breathing down our necks and pressuring us every single hit. We even skipped entire greens just to keep pace for the people behind us. The greens must have been going through construction as well because parts of them had boxes with string and full of dirt keeping players off sections. Then once Lunch time arrived the kitchen closed and we couldn’t get a meal going on to hole 10. Once again we caught up to another group which then led to 4 pairs of golfers all waiting in a line then 2 more pairs behind us.

After hearing so much good about this course we were extremely disappointed in how the timing for tee times were so stacked on top of each other, the clubhouse planning with the women’s event being there and to top it all off for first timers, there was no course layout or cards showing the hole and hazards. Hopefully they get those in check for everyone else but we probably won’t be back for a long time

It’s the first time we played this course in about two years and it has declined incredibly the fairways were bare. No grass on the fairway and bunkers were awfully steep and rough around the edges. Several fairways were roped off as if it were cart path only. They should have put down some winter rye.

A buddy and I got a 1:54 tee time on a Friday afternoon. What a great way to end the work week. We would have about 4.5 hours to finish. Might cut it close but perfect weather so it was worth the risk. Cut to getting to first tee at 1:45 to find out they were a few minutes behind. No big deal until you find out the group in front of you is a group of 6!!! The starter and pro shop both know. And while waiting, a guy in the sixsome says “the pro shop told us to” and apologized to our group. The group of 6 were all friends and clearly knew each other. So they clearly wanted to be a six or the would have split 3 and 3. And to top it off ranger rolls through around 7 or 8 and asks how the pace, I say 6some? His response is “we are packed”. We were well over 2 hours at this point. No kidding you are allowing sixsomes on a Friday afternoon. Careful, starting close to 2:00 might only get you 13 holes. Greens rolled good although there are some areas of fungus especially on left side of 1. Maybe don’t put the pin over there so you have to putt through it. Course overall including the fairways are in worse shape than the have been in the past. I didn’t expect perfection for $39 but you would expect typical course etiquette. We won’t be back.
