Pleasant surprise
Thoroughly enjoyed the experience
First time playing, interesting layout, good use of water, will be back in two weeks with guests
Good value
Course itself was in great shape. We played as a twosome. Staff at check in were friendly and informative. We made the turn and fought up to a group who let us play through. The next group we had to pass on 11 because they wouldn’t. Our cart started to die around the 14th hole but the Golf shop closed at 1pm so we couldn’t get help. Finished the round and went to play 10 again just to make up missing the 11th hole. Worker rolls up and says, hey chief!!! Is there a reason you’re teeing off again on #10? I explained we skipped a hole and were just playing one more, which was fine. But the hey chief was uncalled for. For $40 I would recommend playing
Well organized course
Excellent overall. Great greens and fairways and challenging. Will be coming back
Beautifull
Very good conditions !
Bunkers were particularly in excellent conditiond as were the greens.
We enjoy play there every time we go !!
Very Nice Municipal Course
A scenic layout and very good greens. Course is in
top notch condition. It is a good value for the fee.
done with this place
first, the course is great, good conditions, good layout, fun track. i have played here many times as a local, and always tip above average. but i'm just sick of the treatment by the cart guys. i always play in the afternoon and i can't count the number of times they have some chasing after us with 20 minutes or more of good daylight forcing us off the course. it's really ridiculous. we started play 2 hours before sundown, and since we aren't idiots we realized we probably wouldn't finish 18, but that's fine. when the cart guy saw us loading up, instead of "hello, have fun", we got a sarcastic "how many holes do you think you'll get in starting at this time?" as a paying customer, that's my problem, not his. i guess being a saturday night, they just wanted to hurry everyone to get out. it's typical of the attitude of the guys here. i would suggest you cart guys get a job at the library if you can't work golfing business hours. golf starts when the sun comes up and ends when the sun goes down! in fairness, i would also say i find south florida golf facilities to be on the low end of the customer service scale. a lot of miserable people for some reason.
Good Course
First and foremost the greens were great. Rolled true and speed was consistent throughout.
The fairways were in good condition; however on some fairways there was a few spots marked off because the ground was water logged. This is significant because when I played it had not rained in a few days. I assume the course does not drain well and do not recommend playing the day after a heavy rain.
Course was crowded (tee time was 11:40am), but the starter did a good job regulating pace. Had to wait a few times throughout round but nothing unexpected.
All in all, the course was very good. Again greens were GREAT. Definitely returning.
Perfect Condition
Have played here around 3 times now. Out of all of the Miami courses, this is one of the best. Each hole is different and the greens run fast and true. Water will haunt you on the front but the back is a tad easier. Played in about 3.5 hours on a sunday at 11AM. Range is perfect as well with a huge putting green.
Where are the marshalls
Unfortunately we have been waiting at every tee off and before playing every time. We wonder where the marshalls were!
