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.

Course Continues to Give Reasons Not to Come Back

This past weekend, there was a tournament scheduled with no prior notification. We didn't find out until we checked in.

The course then closed the range two hours early and we were left without a chance to hit balls and properly warm up.

They then rushed us (and everyone else) out to the tee box where we all just sat and waited. Since the course disregarded tee times and pushed everyone out one after another, pace of play was terrible all day, and we all waited on every hole and almost every shot.

On top of all this, after our first four holes, they moved up all the tee boxes for the tournament, forcing everyone else to tee off from the grey markers.

What a poor experience and this is not the first time we have had an experience like this. Not sure when or if I'll come back. I would hesitate to recommend this course to anyone.

I've played on better cow pastures. No grass on course, looks like it hasn't been watered in weeks. Pitiful.

Tough pin placements

Overall, I enjoyed the course. But, something must have happened to make the greenskeepr mad before s/he started work. The pins were in downright nasty spots! :-)

A positive experience

This was our third round in the Deland area and our first at Debary. We had a positive experience. We found one green way too fast while others were more playable. The traps were well maintained and playable but there were a number of areas where grass was hard to find. We'd go back but are going to check out a few more area courses first.

Not that exciting

The greens were very fast but hard, not very receptive to approach shots. The fairways were hard, dry and sparse. There is not much room for error on the course. If you miss the fairway or rough you end up in ferns or someone's yard. The course is average. Not many memorable holes on the course. My group plays here a few times a year just because it's close, but not one of my favorites.

Decent

Greens are well maintained, but fairways are rough.

Was ignored by the starter at least for 10 min. My wife and I approached him and waited for a chance to talk to the starter, who never stopped chatting and laughing loud with other players. I gave up on him and return to my cart which was parked right beside him. He refused to acknowledged my presence until everyone left the area for tee box. Only then he told to us to follow the last group. Unfortunate!

Good day

Overall a good day. Play was a little slow ...close to 5 hrs. Condition if course was good and seems to be improving. Greens were great...a little slick. We snagged a good deal thru Golfnow and my 3 buddies who never played the course were happy.

Bar ran out of Yuengling...no one runs out of Yuengling!

The Starter was terrible.

The Pro Shop needs to take more responsibility for the starter he had absolutely no idea what he was doing. You should not have to start 45 minutes after your tee time and allow other people to tee off in front of you Other than that very nice course.

Will not be back

The fairways ha basically, no grass and we’re full of plugs.The greens were okay. The big problem was a 2 hour and 45 minute front nine. We quit after 9 holes. No fun to wait on every shot.
