A little dark, but black bear in a dark tree, hole # 6...appropriate for Black Bear Golf Club! Photo submitted by relivgolfers on 09/29/2013
Nice condition, nice course.
Good value. Very nice condition, fairways and roughs. Greens pretty good. Tough layout, some winding fairways, well placed bunkers, water. Overall, excellent value.
Rough around the edges.
Not maintained well close to the fairways. Greens in pretty. Ad shape given this time of year. Fun layout. Too many super thin lies around greens and just off fairways
Good course, challenging greens.
The course is is good shape, dried out in some areas, to be expected this time of year. Greens are small, elevated, and will test your putting. lots of hills uneven lies, good for shot making.
Seen Better Days
Played this golf course when it opened and liked it. Now the conditions are below average and the greens are smaller.
Links style
The course would be a whole lot more interesting with some trees. Number 18 needs a bale out area in the worst way. Bad design
Price too high
It was just under $400 for four of us to play and that is insane for this course. Greens were tiny and muddled with divots. There’s no way this course should be charging this much money to play here. I don’t recommend
A bit on the dry side
The course was in good shape given the dry season here in FL. A couple of greens have experienced some problems but the majority are in great shape and rolling well. A bit spotty around greens but that should be fixed with the help of some rain. Overall, still a very enjoyable course to play.
Bunkers and hills
Fairways are narrow and many are parallel to the next fairway separated by rolling hills. You have to keep your eyes open or you could take a ball to the face from someone’s slice. Bunkers everywhere. Elevated tees and greens throughout. Downside there aren’t any steps to boxes so your hiking a little to get up and down. Challenging course if you miss the fairway. Greens were nice and true.
Circus course
I was recommended to play this course.I was underwelmed ,I thought the course was in decent shape there was enough fair way to hit into it was a lot like southern dunes in a way but southern dunes is a lot more fun to play and in better shape. The main beef with the course was the greens Way to small some of the greens were so narrow you needed a windmill in front of it just to see pin im a fairly decent player but this course was ridiculous I like a challenging layout But also fun to play this course is a big fat "0"
Not Well Designed
Most of the tee boxes and greens are elevated making it extremely difficult. The 18th hole is over water making it a very long shot for average golfer. There is no bailout area. Not well designed hole.
fairways sparse
Greens fast and smooth. Almost too fast for slope of greens. Fairways had grass, but were cut tight . Bunkers could use work. Maybe one half to 1 inch loose sand, then hard sand. Definitely a course worht playing.
