Deal-Time can’t go wrong with this one!

First time playing in Florida it was hot and humid (coming from the west). Course was in excellent shape and the staff was more than friendly! Made the experience that much more enjoyable! I even had one of the grounds keepers bring me 3 balls he had found for no reason. Greens were perfect and ran true. I would recommend it to all. Played at 6600 yard from the blacks and due to the humidity it felt more like 7700 yards. Played tuff but fair. Loved my experience. 18 holes in just under 4 hours.

Water water everywhere!

A beautiful course in excellent condition. The biggest challenge is avoiding water which is present on most holes. The 18th is a nasty par 3 island green. All members of our foursome donated a ball to the water gods.

Great course

Had a great time today! Luckily, I got to play with a member (Frank C.) who was knowledgeable about the layout and a joy to play alongside, even if I didn’t meet his level of play.

A Good Experience

This was a great day, good course, and a lot of fun. We had played the course twice previously and really liked it. They went through some renovations due to the loss of space for the Trade Center expansion -- and I don't think the changes worked well. I feel it lost something, and a tough exciting finishing hole has been turned into a par 3 Sawgrass imitation. Not a fan of the changes. Personally, I hate ending a round on a Par 3. Might be better if they renumber the holes so you have a better Finishing Hole.

Waste of time and money

The best part of the golf course are the greens. Smooth and fast, but not tricked up.

Pace of play was horrible. On the final hole, there were 3 groups on tee, waiting. Conditions were average, design was nothing special, traffic noise all around the golf course.

No way this is a 4 star.

Bring your balls. Love the people and the course. Great shape. Very noisy with helicopter routes every 3 minutes. Irritating. Add the highway noise and it isnot quiet.

Worth returning

Very nice practice facilities and the course is challenging but fair. The cart

gps is very helpful and necessary to see the hazards ahead. The could use a few more staff in the cart area.

Good vacatin challenge

Course layout made it challenging. I did not need a driver on most of the par 4 holes as I can hit a 3-iron about 250 yards. The narrow fairways or other obstacles made the driver too much risk for the reward. I was able to hit the 260 yard par 4 17th green with a 3-iron with a little help from the wind. Greens were slower than I am used to playing bent greens in Tennesee. Course conditions made the round highly enjoyable.

You Need to Be Patient

Played as a threesome. Two groups waiting to tee off on at least half the holes. Group in front of us paused to take a picture of an alligator. Also hit two balls from tee on a couple of holes. Needed someone from the pro shop to keep things moving. Greens were great. Tees need work. Challenging back nine for first time players.
