Rating 72.2

Bordering the Indian River, Viera East Golf Club sprawls across a landscape of sparkling blue lakes and native marshland that is accented with towering pines and cypress trees. The well known layout is considered one of the best and most affordable public golf courses in Florida. The course features large, undulating greens that are carefully protected by numerous bunkers and risk-reward opportunities that will challenge even the lowest handicappers. Although the course offers a fairly formidable test, beginners will be comforted by the wide fairways that have ample bailout room. Viera East Golf Club's eighth and ninth holes are a memorable duo, beginning with a short par 4 that is the best birdie opportunity on the course. The ninth is another par 4 with water all along the left and trees along the right. Both holes are made even more challenging with strategic bunkering along the greensides.

Course value

This course has a great layout, and is very open to all types of golfer skill levels. The issue I have seen most recently is the increase of rates compared to other local courses rates. This course is subsidized by a local CDD, which has to answer to a board for improvements. The most recent improvements were spent on the golf course itself, but this course should spend more effort on the manicuring of overgrowth that is usually found on the interior holes. They can not blame their issues on staffing, because they have ample grounds crews to pick up debris after windy/stormy conditions. The practice facilities are good, but could use a bit of expanding. The teaching pro is good, but there is only one and there should be more to choose from in that arena. Overall, the course is good, the young staff could use a seasoned mentor on how to run the front side of golf operations. Although, there are shortages everywhere due to Covid, other course have managed to stock their shops with the bare essentials. I would suggest getting balls and gloves at a local golf shop and sell them at cost, just to have something!

I hope this golf course mgmt. team gets it's act together because the course layout is what makes this course most desirable.

Grouchy

The starter came in the restaurant after 9 holes and said we had to get back in line where we could to finish the back 9. We stopped to sit down and cool off. So we went back out to play and the starter yelled to us as we went by that we can't stop like that for a hot dog. Every time we've played there we have stopped after 9 to eat and then go back out. What changed?

Course Marshal

We were held up all day. The course marshal on a par 3 told us to speed up. We waited on the tee for 10 minutes for the group ahead of us to clear the tee that green. I think the group ahead and behind were the marshals friends. His actions we uncalled for and he left before we could say anything. His attitude ruined an otherwise enjoyable round.
