Save your $!

Worst conditions I’ve played in, since the Eagles

Bear tee boxes, Lousy, fairways, and even worse greens.

I drove 45 minutes from Tampa to get there, time, I unfortunately will never get back

Walked off the course, disgusted , after nine holes

Save your money!

Pass it by!

One of the worst courses I’ve played in Southern Florida.

Poor tee boxes, poor fairways, lousy greens

I walked off after nine holes. The layout could be nice, although a little funky, if you haven’t played it before.

But there was no excuse for the conditioning

Especially, for the green fee they charged

Stay away!

Ghost Town

Maybe everyone is home watching the Masters vs playing on this beautiful day, I dunno. But this place was a ghost town. Sat 12:45 tee time and had the course to myself. Beautiful tract of land, somewhat neglected tho. Amazing homes surround the course. You can tell it used to be amazing, but something’s amiss. Greens rolled tight n right, lots of wildlife, and generally a grip n rip type of course. Def recommend! Free range balls, nice practice bunker and greens. Killer clubhouse and bar, new carts with GPS and Bluetooth. Where are all the people? Who cares, come check it out and stay a while.

Terrible golf course

Basically this course is a decent layout but without any upkeep other than mowing the weeds. Don’t waste your time and money on this!

Great layout, but the course needs better irrigation to be a top tier course.

Need helps

The course needs help. Maintenance staff either doesn’t exist, or they don’t have the funds to take care of it anymore. It’s going downhill fairly quickly.

No grass

Have played here before but the course conditions have really deteriorated. Mostly bare dirt and very thin grass. Not sure if it's lack of water or disease but terrible. Hard to bet they charge $65

RW

I play RW regularly, because during snowbird season their prices are reasonable. I have seen conditions improve quite a bit over the last year. Their bunkers have genuine sand in them. Greens have improved greatly over the last couple of months. Layout is challenging with a nice mix of hard and easier holes. Hopefully, we get some rain or they will have to start irrigation on the course.

Too pricey for what you get.

Other local courses offer much better course conditions for the same price this time of year.

Needs a lot of work

Unfortunately this course is in horrible condition. The fairways and rough are hard pan and the greens are just as bad. I’m not sure who set the price for this course but there is no world that anyone should pay that kind of money for a golf course in this condition.
