Great for a municipal course

Course was in good condition greens were true except for one or two. Played long on several holes especially for the women. I chose not to play out of any bunkers seemed more like hard pack to me. Overall a great course for the money.

Course is pretty. Palm trees around. A bit tight with some greens close to next tee box. Pace of play bottlenecks

Fast greens today

Pace of play was a bit slow, finishing in about 4 hours 15 mins. Conditions were good, greens were fast. Stay below the hole or pay the price! There are no houses lining each hole so if that’s a fear this course is for you.

Left after 9.

Waited significantly on each box after the first hole. The course was in good shape, the staff are wonderful, and the greens were perfect, but the wait was awful so we packed up and left after 9 holes. We would happily play Encanto again were there no waiting.

Great course, but the greens are rolling too fast

Years ago the green speed was a little slower and perfect. The overall condition if everything else is better.

Encanto was worth the money

Nice course, some tricky green that are very fast.

I enjoyed it a lot.

The wind was tough but that had nothing to do with the course.

Great time and I plan to play there again.

When you don’t want pay the big bucks.

Course was open layout with lightning fast greens. The guy in pro shop had a long day and only time he showed interest was collecting the pins at dusk while we were still approaching 18 th green which meant we had to get a group member to put a club in the hole so we could see it. On the positive he did let us have extra cart at no cost.

Great day

Booked an early tee time and was joined by 3 other singles. Second tee off in the morning. Finished up in under 4 hrs. Staff was excellent, friendly and courteous. Guys I golfed with were fun to play with. I saw Jordan hole out for eagle from a bunker. Was an awesome shot to see. Weather was perfect course is nice. Greens were a bit rough but fast. Fairways are firm so you get a nice roll out, I'll be back.
