World Golf Village is home to 36 challenging holes of championship golf. The Slammer & Squire Course is named after the two World Golf Hall of Fame legends, Sam Snead and Gene Sarazen, who served as consultants to the course's designer, Bobby Weed. The golf course is known for its tricky par-3 holes and the carefully preserved beauty of the landscape. Its traditional layout meanders through native flatwoods and hardwood hammocks, running alongside wetland preserves and a wildlife habitat. The scenic Slammer & Squire Course features contoured greens and gently rolling, generous fairways. There is also an abundance of water on the golf course in the forms of lakes and marshes.

One of the best courses in the area

This is one of the best maintianed courses in the area. You will pay a little more here, but the experience is worth it. We took a group here to play and everyone had an amazing time. Great staff, great layout, great experience. Pay a little more, get a little more.

Outstanding, Moderate Playing Course

From the time we drove in to when we packed up to leave we were well taken care of. The course was Pristine and went far beyond our expectations. Clean, Well-Manicured every hole a fun experience. It is not what one would call "close to being an easy course". The corse plays challenging but also fun. From where we live it takes us 1.5 Hours to get to the course. In short we WILL Play there again.....

Course was over seeded the day after I purchased the tee time. The greens and the fringe couldn't be mowed before I played.

The course was in very good shape less what I already mentioned. It was also cart path only due to the overseeding which caught us by surprise. Difficult to putt due to the inconsistency of the greens with tufts of grass growing and their watering the course ahead of our group but that has to be done so I can't complain about it. I would have expected a more friendly staff in the Pro Shop just based on the courses namesakes. Our golf cart went dead in the water on the fairway of the 1st hole. Had to walk back to the clubhouse and get another one. Luck of the draw I guess there. After the round though I talked to the lady in the Pro Shop about it and she had a 'that's the way it goes sometimes' attitude. She didn't offer any type of compensation for it either.
For the price I paid for the round thx to GolfNow it was a good deal but I would have went elsewhere if it would have been full price.

The fairways are like walking on a carpet.

I loved the course. The only issue was it was cart path only due to recent overseeding. Wish I had known before booking. One member of the group has COPD and had some difficulty. The greens were "hairy" and slow due to the overseeding but otherwise in great condition. I will play it again.

Great Course...slow pace of play

The course was in good shape for mid-February. Fairways were a little thin but the greens were quick and true. Hazards were clearly marked and traps were in good shape. The staff was very freindly. They did have a marshall checking on folks but pace of play was slow (just over 5 hours to play).
