Mostly wide fairways but a lot of traps

Good value for the price I was able to get. The white tees play a lot shorter than the blue tees so the course can handle the shorter hitter as well as the longer hitter.

Good Course, Good Value

We played 18 holes, booked through Golf Now at $32 each. At that price, this was an excellent value.
Some of the holes started to resemble each other too much for me to rate this course higher, but this course was fun. As a high-handicapper, I enjoyed the fact that there weren't any forced carries, and there were many shot options. Some of the greens were better than others, but not a big negative at all.

Great Experience

Great experience, everything was perfect except the pace of play, the starter for some unknown reason allowed 5 players in front of us in 3 carts and slowed us down

Great deal

Played Heron before the Dixie tournament so the greens were great. The bunkers were weal maintained and the pace was good. Nice place to practice, good range, chipping green and putting green. Try to get a deal in the morning, it is worth it.

Ne vas pas dans la bonne direction

Plusieurs trappes de sable de sont pas râclées. Probablement parce qu'il n'y avait pas de râteau autour des trappes ni dans les voiturettes. Les allées n'avaient pas été coupées depuis plusieurs jours. Attention, il y a des nids de "fire ants" partout. Ma conjointe s'est fait piquer à plusieurs endroits. De beaux verts. Le GPS de notre voiturette était défectueux mais on est venu nous la remplacer assez rapidement. Les préposés aux bâtons n'ont pas lavé nos bâtons à la fin de la partie. Avoir sû, je ne lui aurais pas donné de pourboire.

Ce terrain a déjà été en bien meilleur état mais il est assez facile d'obtenir un bon prix via les différents courtiers de golf.

Temps de jeu correct mais pourrait être plus rapide.

J'ai l'impression que ce club veut maintenant compétitionner avec les clubs bas de gamme plutôt que les clubs haut de gamme comme auparavant. Dommage.

Not as good as I expected

Lot of bunkers which made the course fun and challenging. The drainage was not good. The greens could have rolled better, bumpy spots on occasions where the old pin placement was not flush with the green. I expected more from a TPC course but I would play it again for the right rate.

Under construction

Usually a great course but it has bad drainage on the front nine so it's being repaired wouldn't play there for a few months unless it's a weekday for a deal. Sand is the best in FL. Greens were ok. But on that day very slow course conditions and under staffed had to actually ask for a cart so I could pick up my bag. I'd wait a few months to see what happens

Very good quality

we have really enjoyed the course, it is quite a challenge with all the sand traps always in play, but my wife and I played our handicap. There is some work done in the bunkers and it should be easier next time to come out. We will definitely try it again. Thank you

les greens étaient pas beaux sur le deuxième 9. La coupe inégale et mauvaises herbe. Contrairement au premier 9, on dirait qu'il y a apparence de négligence.

Great greens and lots of beach

Very fair layout with small but true greens. Areas of the course were a little soggy, especially on the front nine. Great greens that rolled perfect, nice to play a course where you can hit a putt and actually trust the line. If you don't like playing out of the sand do not play this course. Huge bunkers on everyhole, but they are well maintained.
