The Plantation Golf Club - Cranes Roost Course

Several unique holes, including a tightly guarded par 5 on the back 9. Interesting par 3's and shorter par 4's, but still challenging. The fairways were short of grass,so that increased the difficulty. Some seeding on th efariways and a couple of greens and this would be a great course.

I got a hot deal for a sunday afternoon for $9. For $9 almost any course is worth playing. While the rough is eh and the fairways are ok, the greens are in pretty good shape although a few could use a little checking. The layout itself isn't bad, it's a short course but some holes are quite narrow so you have to keep it straight. Otter's Revenge which is a group of 3 holes on the back are the toughest on the course requiring precision irons and tee shots. It's a shotmakers course but fun and for $9 it's a good course to work on your short game and irons.

Course was in very good shape especially the greens,

We were a tad nervous when we arrived because we found out we were part of a shot-gun start. There was no mention of this on the Golfnow website when we booked the tee time. Had we known there was a shot gun start at the time we were preparing to tee off, we would have selected either another time or course.

This was our first time we played this course although we have played Otter Creek, the second course at the Plantation, previously. The course was well maintained and although not overly long still provided an interesting and engaging round of golf. The staff were friendly and supportive. Would recommend this course and play it again.

Best course,we played this Oct 2013,greens and fairways in great shape. Not busy,so pace of play was outstanding !!!!!

A lot of interesting holes. Not a cookie cutter course, but well planned with challenges for all.

I was scheduled to play the Otter Creek course at the Plantations but when I arrived I found the front nine closed for aireation. The person at check in apologized and gave me the option of playing the back side twice or playing the Cranes Roost course. I choose the Cranes Roost course and enjoyed a nice round of golf. Everyone there from the clubhouse personnel to the other players I met there were very freindly and will definitely be back.

They have allowed the trees to grow in so that a number of holes are unreasonably tight

Beautifully maintained. Fast greens. Always a good round.

Great course, back nine more challenging than front
Very nice amenities, SUPER VALUE when booked through Golf Now!!!!!

We enjoyed the rolling hills of this course, which is unusual for Flordia. I will play it again.

The course was in good shape tee to green. The front nine played easier then the back nine. Probably because the back nine had a few holes where the fairways were tight. Holes 13 thru 15 are tough but if you played here a couple times would be manageable. All in all well worhth the price I paid.

Played the course for the first time yesterday and I must say I had a wonderful time. My husband played with me and it was a nice time out together and doing something we love (hitting a ball). I would recommend this course if you want to have a great time with friends and family. The staff there was wonderful, it was really hot and they provided cups of ice water at the beginning and they had ice and water on other holes. Living in Florida I don't get to see that much. I will play this course again.

In spite of the recent heavy rains the course, Otter Creek, was in good shape. Standing water in some areas but marked as such. Even with that some people just cannot read or understand the rules, Otter's Revenge holes, so ruts are on some fairways where people have driven through. These are probably the same people that think it is cute to throw trash in the bushes even though there are trash receptacles at every hole.

I am a new golfer and this was my best experience ever on a golf course. The course was very well maintained. The price was amazing and they let me play the round alone like I wanted. There was never a wait. It rained hard on three holes, but I still had a great time. I will be back and also recommend this course to everyone I know.

this course can be excellent....not now tho....the greens are terrible...i dont mean bad...i mean pathetic....maybe they are doing something that nobody knows about....cant think of what that may be...but to the point of just not good....the ball is rolling about 5-6 maybe....if you can find a spot thats not ate up or holes unfilled good luck....i have played this course many times over the years but this is the worst i have ever seen here.....to bad..its a great layout...cant blame it on the weather...plenty of rain...other courses in the area are 5 times better...hope it changes back to the way it should be

Played the Otter's Creek course and found it to be a good test of your game. Lots of dogleg holes as well as tight tree lined fairways. You need to carefully choose the correct club from the tee box. Driver is not always the best option. I will play this course again.

Simply a fun and enjoyable round of golf. A great value, as always.

Challenging well maintained and friendly course. High highly recommend this course to my friends
