Great layout and facilities

Played over the weekend! Greens rolled great! Very tricky front nine and then the back opens up a bit. This place rocks and the new clubhouse is unreal! Staff was super helpful, pointing me in the right direction and relax vibe. I will be back!

No Longer Good, Don’t waste your money

Course is not what it used to be. Seems like they poured all their effort into the new driving range and clubhouse and forgot about the course. fairways rough and teeboxes in dog track shape and greens rolling very slow. Entire place seems torn apart. many better courses in the area. don’t waste your time or money.

Poor conditions

Play discourse a few times prior, no longer in good condition. Greens are not good neither of the fairways. Find another place to play. They’re so enamored with the new driving range that’s all they seem to care about

Decent experience

The course overall was nice. The problem was they sent everyone out 8 min apart, backing up the entire round. Teed off at 1:30 and only finished through 16 due to darkness. It took nearly 5 hours. Not to mention, an apparent regular played with our group and did not know golf etiquette. Kept driving in front of everyone before they took their shot, playing as if they were alone. Very frustrating. The new range is unbelievably awesome though. Deserves a 2.5/5 experience.

Amazing!

Wow. Amazing venue. First -- Hands down the friendliest people; from reception, to carts, to rangers, to bar staff. Second -- Course is in great shape. Third -- The new club house and range facilities are top notch! Bulk range balls were on par with private courses! Finally -- food (at bar, and at turn snack shop) is really good and fairly priced!

Pleasantly surprised

New clubhouse and range were great looking. Loved the overall design and layout. Greens were fast and true. Rough was a little “rough”.

Overall, I had a good time and finished in less than 4 hours!

Recommend that you come and play.

Laid back and fun.

Great course layout, forgiving on most drives, yet challenging on approach shots and putts. Great people all around!

Painfully slow Pace

Course was overbooked. Sending out groups at 8 minute intervals was unrealistic.

Teed off 40 minutes late and the round was over 5hrs. What would have otherwise been a very enjoyable round was very frustrating.

Here for a fun time, not a long time

Booked this course while I was in town for a week. Didn’t know what to expect but was happily surprised once I arrived. Course recently went through som upgrades and it was a vibe. Great service, super clean and the amenities are top notch. This is the place you can go to grind or shoot hoops (yes, they have a basketball hoop for some fun end of match Horse games-among other fun games scattered on the property). Zero judgement but all the attention on the golfer experience without being too stuffy. In an area where you can be asked to leave for not wearing a collared shirt-PBN or The Nash, is a breathe of fresh air and a tasty gulp of a rum shot you are so kindly provided on course from the ranger. Play on friends

Nice course

My favorite course to pay in Palm Beach area. Always find the course is a good fair challenge. Got a good rate for the time. But rates are going up so have to pick and choose when I can play

Fantastic Experience

Greens were mint. The whole courses and the atmosphere was terrific and challenging. The staff was friendly and helpful from start to finish. First time there. It’s now on my must play list. My son and I had a blast and loved it.
