On my list

When looking for a good deal, I can always depend on finding a good choice at this course. It provides me with the opportunity to improve all phases of my game. Greens can use TLC & managing pace of play should be looked into. Staff very friendly & helpful.

Interesting

If you’re not fussy, like us, it’s an interesting place to play. Being seniors & not expecting perfect conditions, it suits our needs. Pace of play not enforced, & groups ahead not trained in etiquette, making playing very slow. Staff very friendly.

Great Value, unfortunately condition

Pace of play is generally SLOW. Some tee boxes and greens look decent while others look atrocious. Its really sad that they have a greenskeeper capable of maintaining the champ course, but completely neglect the Glades

Overlook

It is an interesting executive course but it desperately needs work

The tee boxes are very sandy and deep gouges on the greens

It is a perfect course for a beginner but otherwise a seasoned golfer won’t be pleased

Pretty nice par 64 course

Was able to get right out on the Glade’s course. We caught the next group after the front 9, and slowed up our pace quite a bit. Course is fine, and had a few challenging holes. Price is definitely right, but didn’t get a chance to eat or spend anytime in the clubhouse/restaurant. I’d say about 2/3rd of the greens were playable. Yeah, I’d return again when in Fort Lauderdale.

Horrible

This was absolutely the worst course I’ve ever played on in condition wise no sand in the sand traps. The greens were horrible with mud spots, dirt spots, overgrown, grass, weeds, etc. the tea boxes were not tea boxes. They were flat ground with dirt and sand so you had no footing. The fairways were also roots mud and dirt. Don’t waste your time effort or money. This course was horrible.

Don’t do it!

My fellow golfers. Please save yourself the stress and go somewhere else to play. Shame on this staff for charging money to play this so called golf course. They should condemn this place and let the ducks run free. What horrible experience.

Course Needs TLC

This course has great potential for family golf. Unfortunately tee boxes and greens are not well kept. A disappointment because the proximity and potential is great.

This course has awful tea boxes

This course needs a lot of attention, especially the tea boxes and the greens. They’re awful to hit off and awful to put off. I do not recommend this for anybody. I don’t care how little it cost. I

Good Value

Colony West has 2 courses. The Champions course is their main 18, but the Glades is a nice little par 3 course perfect for working on your ball striking. There aren’t any bunkers on the course and not much water. I love going out here when I need to get my swing working right. The tee boxes could use some love and attention, as well as some of the greens, but nothing out there will ruin your day. Enjoyable course.

Great for the Fee Paid

Course has sooo much potential. Once your green are consistently grass (right now sand and grass) and you get some more grass on the fairways it will be great.
