DeBary Golf & Country Club
About
DeBary Golf & Country Club, a Lloyd Clifton-designed course sits on hilly land. The layout is fascinating. No two holes feel similar. Only two holes have water, but there is significant sand. Dense woods of pine and evergreen border the fairways. The rolling fairways and natural layout give the golf course a Carolinas feel. The par 5s are all in the 500- to 550-yard range. The par 3s are all approximately the same distance, running 180 to 190 yards from the back tees, and 150 to 160 yards from the white tees. DeBary is one of the few Clifton golf courses that do not top out at more than 7,000 yards.

Slow play
The course was in good condition overall, Could stand to have more grass in the fairways, just let it grow longer. The worse problem is the slow play by members who think they own the course and play like it. They won't let people play thru them, like being polite and letting them. Learn the polite rules of golf, please.
Great! Glad you enjoyed your time with us!
Nice layout
Enjoyed round course was in good shape, greens were very good
Awesome! We're pleased that our course conditions met your expectations and that you enjoyed our greens. We hope to have you back again soon for your next round with us!
Course is nice, range is not
For a course this nice, hitting off of mats to warm up if you are a guest while members hit of grass is unpleasant. Plus no one was using the member area. The course should work on eliminating mats and allow guests to hit off of grass. Plus there was no obvious place to practice chipping or hitting out of the sand. The course is tight so it should have a place to practice both. In short, nice course, not very nice range..
Hi Fred. We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing DeBary Golf & Country Club.
Love this course!
I play Debary CC a couples times during the winter months and always liked it. Course was excellent and greens pretty fast and true. My friend with me never played at Debary before and wants to come back. We live about 40 min away in New Smyrna and are willing to travel over here. Good lunch and drink on veranda after.
Wonderful! We're thrilled that you and your friend enjoyed our course and your lunch with us. We're honored that you're willing to travel so far to play our course and we can't wait to have you back again soon at DeBary!
Slow
Greens r great. Course good shape. Very slow play with no ranger. Snack bar not open. $16 for 3 beers inside.
Awesome! We're pleased that you enjoyed our course conditions and we appreciate your feedback. We hope to have you back again soon for your next round!
The 19th Hole
Great Service, Good Food. BEWARE!!! There is an 18% service charge that is added to the bill. You say okay, but here is the kicker. The entire upcharge goes to the house, not the server. Unfair to you and the server. Add a proper tip for the server and now you have increased your food and drink bill by 36%.
Awesome! We're pleased that you enjoyed you time with us and that our menu met your expectations. We appreciate your review and we hope to have you back again soon!
Slow play
Wonderful greens with good speed. Slow play. $5.33 for a beer
Great! We're glad that you our course conditions met your expectations, but we apologize that the pace of play was a little slow. We look forward to having you back again soon for your next round with us!
Once Again, Cart Kid Ruins it
I play here probably 10-12 times a month. I was just about to join. Instead, a kid attending the the golf carts gets rude. I guess because I didn't turn the cart in until about 750pm (even though there is no time that the course requires). He muttered something under his breath. This is the second time this kid has presented issues like this. I've spoken with a couple members and they have basically told me that they just deal with him. That's too bad. I guess I need to find another course.
Thank you for your review! We apologize that our staff didn't leave a great impression on you. We appreciate your feedback and will use your review to help us improve. We hope you will give us another try in the future!
Good time playing 9 BUT golf cart kid ruined it completely
I really enjoy playing DeBary. It's not the greatest course in terms of condition, but I've enjoyed the easy-going atmosphere and the greens are in good shape - they're fast!
The problem that is emerging (and I spoke with another person this evening who complained about a similar thing) is this young kid who is very cocky and arrogant. The other night I went to play and he told me that I didn't pay. When I told him that I paid the GolfNow fees but the pro shot office door was shut, he told me to give him 20 bucks if I wanted to play. I refused so I went inside and spoke with the General Manager. He was very good; he listened and seemed to understand.
Tonight though, the same kind of stuff happened with the kid. I don't play golf to have drama, just the exact opposite. I like DeBary, but the Golf Cart kid is ruining it for me. There is always Victoria Hills (quite nice), Timacuan, Red Tail, Black Bear, and many others. Too bad, just when I was about to join the course.
Thank you for your review! We're pleased that you enjoyed our course and we appreciate your review. We noticed you gave us a 1-star review though. If this was not intentional, would you mind giving us another review that more accurately matches your feedback? Thanks again and we hope to have you back again soon!
Great place to play golf
Course was in fantastic shape. Tees, fairways, sand traps, and greens. Just a great day of golf. The course is for all level of golfers. Golf now made it very nice based on the green fees we paid. We’ll definitely play again next year as we’re going home as vacation has ended.
Great! We're glad that our course conditions met your expectations and that you enjoyed the challenge it presented. We look forward to having you back again soon for your next round with us!

We had a great time course was in great shape staff was very friendly can't wait to go back

Two 5-SOME in front of us!!!
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.

Awesome! Come back soon!
Good course, slow play.
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.

Super Friendly Club and Really Tough Course
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
Awesome! We're pleased that you enjoyed our course and the challenge of our layout. We're also glad that our staff left a great impression on you. We appreciate your review and we hope to have you back again soon!
Good course, but sanded greens.
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.
