Ridiculous

The course didn’t have enough golf carts and had to wait two hours. And the course did not look like it’s been mowed in three days. You could not see your ball in the fairway.

Great course, great price, overgrown though

Robo mowers deployed to handle a golf course? Don't seem to be keeping up. Rough is very overgrown, fairways patchy in places- lost a ball in the middle of the fairway (found it!). Played here many times, usually in better shape but it is the heart of summer and things are growing well, so don't hit the rough and you'll be great

Ok if u want cheap round

Course is okay if you’re looking for a cheap round. Nice layout.

More weeds than anything else- in the fairways, rough, & bunkers. No idea how it’s rated 4-stars on golfnow. 3-stars is generous, really 2-stars.

Great layout, in need of a lot of love

Not sure how you let a great golf course get in such bad condition. Years of neglec and no one playing it for obvious reasons. We were just passing through Ocala and gave it a shot. Hope someone brings it back. Could be a top 10 course in Florida.

Nice course but rough fairways

I liked the course, however the day I went the the fairways and surrounding areas were very high. I’d lose my ball hitting straight down the fairway. To be fair when I booked it did advise that was the case. Nice course I’d like to play when it’s in better shape.

Excellent course, pace of play, neighborhood

Fast pace of play, very kind clubhouse employees, very satisfied with the condition and upkeep of the course. The surrounding neighborhood is pleasant as are the groups. Greens are very good, Fairways also. Offers a good challenge
