Oaks National Golf Club

The staff has lost the course again. Drives hit in the fairway are not playable, if you can even find them. Unfortunately, the owners cannot maintain this well-designed property at a playable level year-round.

The maintenance staff is discourteous to golfers. There is no ranger. I encounter residents who walk on the course with no regard for golfers.

What a shame. This is a great layout, yet again poorly managed.

Bright spot, front desk staff does a great job checking golfers in and getting us out, only to experience substandard playing conditions. Nevertheless, I remain hopeful. This course has a ton of potential. Please fix it.

Always enjoy this course, the staff are super, course interesting - nice mix of straight/dogleg/water holes - certainly the best value out there.

The Oaks is not an easy course. Lots of hazards and trees…….the price is right but the conditions were not the best. All the fairways were browning and had lots of weeds popping up on the fairways. Not sure what’s up with that. They were working on some of the greens. There were bad areas on the greens but generally the greens were in decent shape.

Truly enjoy the rather challenging layout. Greens are rolling true - obvious the superintendent is working to improve the fairways. The course is in pretty good shape especially considering the temp pushing 100 and the daily monsoons. Without a doubt the best value out there and the staff are nicest anywhere. Highly Recommend

I have played this course a few dozen times. I choose the oaks because of its pace of play. Quite frankly, they’re just aren’t that many people that play it.

This said, the layout is phenomenal! Unfortunately conditions are equally bad. I literally lost a ball in the fairway on whole number 17 because I couldn’t determine which patch of weeds it landed in. That is a repeating pattern across many holes on the course.

It’s impossible to discern if there is any sand left in the bunkers or if the sand has been completely replaced with dirt.

The most notable effort for the course to me appears to be work with their greens. I’m not suggesting they’re good by any means. I just reflecting that they’re better than the tea boxes and Fairways.

This said, today is hot deal of 15 bucks warrants playing it versus hitting the range for a similar price point.

This is a great course to bring new players to the game, not for the exposure but for the practice.

The fairways were terrible, grass was not cut, several tee boxes were not marked. This course was a lot worse than back home worse courses.

So I played Oaks National twice this week. During my first round I only got to play the front nine before weather intervened. Having only played the front nine I thought that the negative reviewers were either crazy, or snobs. Sure, the cart path had cracks, some of the greens had sand and a bald spot or two - but this is a solid, fun track at a crazy rate. I didn't get why the course was getting slammed.

Then, two days later, I played the back nine. This is a TRUE neighborhood nine. Nestled and integrated into sets of houses - these holes and these homes occupy the same grass - still cool, though - I can see why golfers would be frustrated back there, but it's just tough golf

However... The back is also noticeable (how do I say this kindly) less manicured. It's rough. There isn't great distinction between grasses, from fairway to deep rough. They seem to be chipping away at it and I'm going to be honest with you - if this course improves to conditions (especially in the back) this is going to be a terrific, fun, challenging course. I think 85% of the negative reviews are probably bitter golfers who couldn't place the ball once the course becomes demanding about placement. It's just easier to blame the course.

At a decent rate, this is a killer value even with the so so conditions. Lower your expectations, enjoy the challenge, and you'll be fine.

Course layout interesting with a nice variety of holes like most Florida layouts a bit of water and if the wind comes up can be challenging. Super friendly and helpful staff. Course condition was pretty good especially considering the oppressive summer heat/storms - Florida especially has courses twice this price in lesser condition. There is a small but nice snackbar/dining area with A/C-tables-large screen TV as well as shower facilities. This is the best value and value for money I have encountered. Highly recommend

I'm a routine golfer that moves around to different courses, and this was my first time here. If you are looking for value and NOT a professional and are okay with some bare spots, not necessarily framed by beautiful homes (some were dilapidated), then this is the course. If you're a person who has high standards, look else where.

New owners have turned it around in a big ways, still needs some of the T boxes to improve but overall a big difference for the good , great value

How about a little soap and fresh water in the ball washers once in a while. They are either dry or have a little bit of Mucky water in them. A water cooler on each side would be nice. The greens roll pretty good if you can get a line free of the weeds that are taking over. Getting the greens mostly weed free would be a great improvement.

Very nice layout. Tough course with lots of water, small greens. At one time this had to be a beautiful course. Course needs an overhaul. Bunkers rock solid, fairways patchy and greens 75% were no good to be nice the other 25% sun oar. Also were booked a tee time with a charity tourney going on really.

There are a few quirky holes, but overall it is a solid golf course. I enjoyed the course and the pace of play was more than excellent. Thanks.

Have played this course before and remember it being in better shape than it was this time around. It's a challenging layout that requires the ability to shape a tee shot, manage the course properly, and offer some challenge around small greens. It's playable by players of all skill levels with a couple minor exceptions such as getting over or around lakes and bunkers that front the greens. The bunkers were basically unplayable especially after thunderstorms. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The hot deal price was too good to pass up. But the course really needs some maintenance. It's dried out in many areas and a number of the trees need to be trimmed back to provide sufficient tee shot windows. I liked the course for the challenge and would play it again but only if the maintenance improves
