DeBary Golf & Country Club

I like this course very much and was really looking forward to play it again. We started as twosome and were pretty fast on the first four holes – till we ran into a five some! And they’ve played from three different tees! And very soon we have realized, that there is even two five some there! The pace was destroyed by this; we had to wait on every single shot. From the three some behind us a couple gave up after 9 holes and so we have continued as three some. After the first fast holes it took us another 4 ¼ hours. As I complained after the round in the pro shop a young man who did introduced himself as “the local Pro” told to me, this is normal and he was one of the first five some (!). Now – it is definitely not NORMAL! And it is a shame, that a local pro is a part of breaking the basic rule of the etiquette, which says that the highest number of players in a flight should be four! How can Pro disregard basic rules? I did not hear a word of apology, but only weak tries of explanation, which were rather dumb! A club needs members, but it needs green fee players too. Letting green fee players not feeling as guests, but as somehow like “disturber” will not pay off, as they may not come anymore, like me…

The course is not in bad condition, but not really outstanding. Tee boxes need attention, fairways have bare spots, bunkers full of leafs and greens have bare spots too, though have good speed. Overall, it is playable, but I did not feel welcomed at all.

Course is in good shape, a little dry, fast greens. This day was particularly very slow, no ranger to move people along. Waited on every tee and most shots, they could do better.

Overall course is good with good challenges.

What a great golf club with such friendly staff and members! Great layout although very tough with out of bounds down both sides of the fairway on virtually every hole. Greens are good and very fast and the fairways need a little growth but to be expected this early in the season. Highly recommended

Course is in good shape overall, they had just sanded the greens, still fast. Layout is good, plays long, place your shots and you will be rewarded.

I like playing this course, it has interesting holes and it is normally in good shape. It is a bit dry and they had just sanded the greens, they are still fast.

If you get a chance play it.

Fairly well maintained golf course as of March 2019. Houses line many of the fairways, however, there is typically a line of brush (hard to find balls if they go in) separating the courses from their backyards. A few large water areas but they don't come into play on #9 or #18 unless you over shoot the green. The greens were in excellent condition - very fast, nice green grass. Although they were very hard and impossible to stick on approach shots.

Many putts were undulating, however the short putts look like they break but don't. Bunkers are numerous and all had fresh white sand. Clubhouse is very nice, carts are electric (slightly old) and nice large practice areas.

Cold day!! Nice Course .... friendly staff at the snack bar.

Day guests mixed in between member outings going on created unfavorable situations.

Let many groups play through our 8 guests out for a fun time.

Members were very nice.

Staff such as starters or rangers did nothing to eliminate congestion and smooth out play.

This course is a good layout with some interesting holes you must play with placement.

Course is a bit dry, greens are fast, fairways good with some dry spots, t-boxes are good. We had windy conditions that made the course play longer, overall an enjoyable round.

1st time here. Played in a little over 4 hours. People moved along nicely

We started a bit early to get in front of a skins tournament, it seems everybody else was pushed out early. Made for a slow day, lots of waiting. Greens, fairways and t-boxes are in good shape, the fringes are dry. Challenging course, if out of position it will penalize you, greens have multiple levels and putting is key to good scores.

You have to play this course few times before you know the spot you should aim .

Green position also is important

Course in great shape. Greens were lightening and pins were tucked for young ladies tourney. But over 5hrs for a round on cold day with few players was ridiculous. Ladies tourney was walking twosomes that were soooo slow

Course needs some tender loving care. It is a great layout and a fun and challenging course to play. We always enjoy playing this course. It just needs TLC.

Excellent course for all level of players. Every hole gives you a different look . Truly a great course. Played many times can’t wait to return.

Course is in good shape, greens are very fast and challenging, most have double shelf, you can expect to 3 putt easily if not aware. The course was very busy on this day, it made for a longer round than I expected. You really need to play this a couple of times to get the layout, I will return.
