The Plantation Golf Club - Cranes Roost Course

Cranes Roost is a great course. Its wide open style is very forgving to average golfers. I enjoyed viewing wild life this course has to offer. The nermourous animals i saw were jack rabbits, armidillos and scrub jays. The staff in the pro shop were very friendly and helpful. The larger gentleman in the pro shop, Jim i believe his name was went out of his way to give us helpful tips about playing the course all while wearing some flashy hounds tooth pants. He really made the trip worth it. One thing i would like to see is maybe a golf league held in the afternoons. Where I live they hold one every wednesday night and it is quite enjoyable.

Plays well, many of the holes will challenge you for a good
ball placement off the tee ! Older course with some elevated
tees a nice contrasting course to the other Plantation Course
Cranes Roost . Both courses are well maintained and offered
at excellent value for the money !

good to very good overall...enjoy crane's roost couse very much for a local course......

The only problem we had, and have played this course 4-5 times in the past couple of months,,is,,,,the greens actually hold well,,,BUT,,,THEY ARE SLOW TO PUTT ON!!!!

The Otter creek has some challenging holes, with very tight fairways. Was able to take 10 strokes off my score the second time I played it.

Great job by the grounds crew. In spite of the weather in Central Florida lately, the greens and fairways are in great shape!! Cranes Roost and Otter Creek Are both great courses to play.

The course was in very good condition. We had a great time
playing in great weather.

Good condition considering the drought. Greens plush and true, but not too fast. Tight course, leave the driver in the bag as much as possible. I will be back.

Course was in good shape considering how dry it's been here. Greens were especially in good shape. Otters Revenge holes are tight but play it right and you'll be safe.

Considering the drought, the course is in great shape. Nice variety of wide open and tight fairways. Especially with the Golfnow discounts, it's a bargain.

While other courses this time of year are showing drought stress and frost browning, this course was green and lush. Greens rolled true with no surprises.

This is a very short course,however it is a placement course. some holes driver is too much. for less then $30 including cart it is worth the price of admission. course was in very good shape this past sat.

Plantation is a really fun course and the price has always been great. It used to be in excellent condition but a couple of years ago the conditions became fairly poor. But...they came back to mixed. Some greens poor...others outstanding. We took a late afternoon tee time at a terrific price and could only have completed 18 if there was no backup. The course was overbooked. At 3:20 p.m. there were 6 carts waiting for the first fairway to clear. It stayed pretty much that way for the entire 11 holes we managed to play before dark. 3 hours and 15 minutes to play 11 holes. Playing 11 for what we paid was ok...but the entire 11 holes was...play a shot....wait...play a shot...wait. I say Plantation Crane's Roost should be on all must play lists but NOT ON A BUSY DAY.

We really enjoyed our day at the golg course. We had a good day weather wise. The staff and golfers were friendly and respectful. The course was kept well and challenging enough to make the golfing interesting. We will visit this course again.

I love this place. Great course to go with the great weather.

Really didnt enjoy myself here. Started out with a 40 minute delay for no reason>! (said there was frost delay, but we were at first tee box for 30mins with no sign on frost anywhere and sun shining!) the starter told us we would be going out first since we were there first after the delay; however proceeded to let 2other guys go out in front. Frustrating for me. Didnt even pair us. This Otter Creek course should be gutted out and closed down. They clearly didnt have enough room/ land to make a golf course here. Some of the worst holes i've seen in terms of layout. 17th hole had 7 tractors on it when we approached tee box !!! r u kidding me?! would not return eeven if it was free

Something must have happened in the past year since I last played this course (Crane's Roost). The greens used to be one of the best features of the course but now seem to have trouble on most all of them. Can't tell if they got stressed at some point or just haven't been cared for. If you can get past that point, the course offers some challenging holes - depending on which tees you pick, and there are enough of them to offer different looks. It's a good value and among the nicer courses in the area.

I think cart path only on the back nine is unnecessary for all the holes so designated. A 90 degree rule for some of these holes would speed up play considerably.

good lay out otter creek should be allowed to drive carts when real dry

I have been playing at The Plantation at Leesburg for 5 years and have never seen the course looking better. The plantation is a 36 hole facility with two great golf courses. Otter Creek is an old style course with tree lined fairways, small greens and can be a very good challenge. Cranes Roost is a fairly wide-open golf course that runs through small lakes and swamp/marsh lands. Both courses are fun to play, Otter Creek being more difficult than Cranes Roost. Suitable for all handicaps. This course is great value for the money and has a super friendly staff.
