Falling off

If this course were better manicured, it'd be nice. Needs grass cut, weed killer and trap maintenance. Greens were ok.

The course was in rough shape. Greens were terrible and the fringe area were on most hole dirt and not grass. I did hear that this was the day before airatating the greens so I guess understandable but all in all not good.

I have played when the course was in good shape and it is beautiful.

What used to be is not anymore

This used to be one of the finest tracts in Central Florida. Too bad, it has gone downhill in the past few years.

LOTS OF POTENTIAL

For my 8:30 tee time, I was paired with a gentleman from the UK and at the last moment by a young couple from Tampa. Two inches of rain the previous night required us to play cart path only, which really slowed us down. The Ron Garl design, with significant mounding between the fairways and cart paths made finding our golf shots a challenge, even though they usually found the wide fairways. Amazingly, my new Brit friend marched out to his ball WITHOUT any clubs. After checking his GPS watch. He retraced his steps to get his club. Sheesh!

What a waste of steps!

But I digress. The facility is top notch overall, but apparently recovering from a down period of care, perhaps caused by cash flow problems during Covid. The fairways were in nice condition, the tee boxes spacious, and the large greens decent, if not perfect. My main issue was the condition of the bunkers, in need of edging and raking. Garl's design is to make the greenside bunkers intimidating from afar, but with generous space between them and the greens. I'd suggest hiring one or two more maintenance staffers to restore what I am guessing was a first class operation .

Final thoughts: Carts are due for replacement / pro shop is fully stocked and we'll staffed./ good practice range. Despite 90 degree weather and the cart path only requirement, it was an enjoyable day on the course.

Poor course management

Course was in average shape, pace of play was brutal. Should’ve been about a 3 1/2 hour round and ended up being almost 5. We waited on just about every hole and the Marshalls didn’t do much at all to speed up the course. In fact their overall attitude was to try to teach me about the game of golf on the tee box. Water on the course tasted like it had been pulled from the lakes. Many courses in Orlando, won’t be making the drive 30 minutes south to play here again for $60

Unexpected

This course has always been a favorite… but I haven’t been there in about 8 months. The course was in terrible condition! The grass brown was everywhere, especially out of the bunkers. The staff was very unhelpful and the cart monitor… was just rude. On the turn no beverages were available except water and Gatorade, and all the water coolers were empty. Oh ya… after we paid we were told there was an 18th birthday party in front of us with 8 people, 4 players and we needed to be patient. What a JOKE!

Unexpected

I’ve really enjoyed playing this course over the years…

I haven’t played here in about a year…

The course was in terrible condition.

The staff super proud and unfriendly…

I will not be going back for at least another year to see if things have improved.

I do not recommend…

What happened?

Everything was either damaged or ignored by course maintenance. Greens had multiple holes not from clubs or aeration. Some greens were shaved to nothing but dirt. Rough was all weeds, fairways were not healthy either. It seemed as if the maintenance was fired after seasonal end. Not worth even 20$ to play. They should have paid us to play it.
