The Golf Club at Longwood

I have been a resident of the Longwood Village community for nearly 25 years. I have been golfing for nearly 25 years as well and my handicap is 5.

Although I have been golfing 25 years, I have shied away from the golf course as it appears the company that manages or owns it, reinvested very little or nothing into the course to maintain and enhance the facilities. After the course was closed during the entire year of 2023 for remodeling or renovations, I decided to become a member in mid March 2024 based on the appearance of the holes that I could see from the street.

At the beginning of June 2024, half of the 18 golf course was shuttered for maintenance which it severely needed. The half that was shuttered included mostly the 14 holes that existed with the old 27 hole layout. On August 17, 2024, these shuttered holes reopened to my dismay as the overall condition of these holes are in very poor condition. The manager stated the course is 80% from completion. I don't think he's no where close to being accurate with that statement. There is too much work to be done to this facility to be a playable course. In fact, when you take into account the numerous dead trees on the property, many of which are in the field of play and pose a serious danger.

I have played many top golf courses across the US and Canada including courses that have hosted PGA major tournaments. I have decided to cancel my membership at The Golf Club @ Longwood after 5 and one half months. Remember for 2 months plus of these 5 and 1/2 months , the course was reduced to 9 holes in view of maintenance.

I joined this course after it was closed for over 1 year for remodeling. As a 25 year resident of the neighborhood and a 5 handicap, i have shied away from this course in view of its history for lack of maintenance and upkeep.

The course is in pretty bad condition overall and I cancelled my membership after 5 and 1/2 months. Half of the course was closed over 2 months of this period for maintenance. It is just not playable on most occasions and does not meet my expectations. This course has too many issues to address. Buyer beware!!!

Would recommend. I enjoy this course. Greens played true and were in very good shape. I will play here again.

The are working on the course doing some renovation ...A lot of people playing two different nines ...Greens and fairways definitely need work ...Good enough for the money we played

Positives: lots of variety in the course design

Not very long but requires strategy due to placement of bunkers, lakes and trees. Bring your GPS

Course was in decent condition overall for a public course

Staff were froendly

Negatives: the layout is annoying with long drives in between holes and confusing routes and inadequate signage. Prepare to get lost trying to find the next hole and forget trying to walk the course

Greens were slow and not very good condition. Several were damaged

Pace of play was horrible although it was a Saturday morning with good weather

A couple goofy hole designs with trees in the middle of the fairway

Course was in good condition, it’s overall a cool layout, but a 9:00am tee time should not take 5 and 1/2 hours. Would be a great course if there was someone enforcing pace of play.

Hey I really like playing this course, when in good condition, but if this 18 hole,s include the Pine nine my opinion will change asap, these nine hole,s are unforgiving, a extreme downer, and to put it into the rotation, ruin,s the course, the other two nine hole,s is the only reason I come to Longwood at all, I hope ya understand, what a treat these two are to play, and the only two nine hole,s that are somewhat playable, and fun for your slightly below average golfer,s. Please include this 18, instead of taking the fun out of this golf course, I promise you I,ll play there much more, instead of very little if the Pine nine is part of your plan. From a strung out golfer, Thank,s

Guy in pro shop has ZERO personality… kinda made me think of the course itself…. He even tried to to charge my guest that I already paid for

Thanks for everything yesterday and keep up the good work!!
