Has tons of potential

This should be a great course. Famous designer. Great layout and landscaping. Problem is it is terribly maintained. The greens were great but the fairways were worse than a football field after a full season. Dirt and gravel was more prevalent than grass on some holes. Even the grass there was was dry and crunchy other than the greens.

Slow play and lawnmowers

If you want to be distracted by lawn mowers and have 3 (4) somes on one hole for back ups, then this is the spot for you. Horrible will never go back!!!!!!

First time playing this course....

And I have to admit I am super happy with it! I drove up from Bradenton and it was well worth the money and the drive. The greens were a little bit bumpy but I can easily overlook that. The pro-shop staff were great, the concession stand people were also very nice! I will definitely be back!

Good day

My wife and enjoyed nine holes and played ok not our best.

It was backed up starting on the front nine. We both pared the first and moving over to the second hole the threesome in front of us were still waiting to tee off.

After waiting for eight minutes we drove over to ten and were able to play in normal pace of play.

The layout is excellent. Too bad they don’t take care of this course. The only good grass was on the partially covered ,extremely bumpy greens. The fairways were bare.

Oh my God!

They have given up on this course. Bunkers full of weeds, greens have not been rolled , tee boxes are sand and weeds.

Worst golf course that accepts money, better put rips people off.

Check in person has the personality of a prison guard.

CLOSE THIS GOLF COURSE! Stop ripping the public off.

Worst ever

How did this course get a 4 star rating

Got there 8 minutes before tee time

My threesome was sent out early

Caught up and preceded to wait.....

At the end of 9holes my “group” decided” to have lunch...huh??

So I went ahead as a single

Never saw them again

Course was in lousy condition

Never saw a ranger

The guy working the desk in pro shop never even looked at me..

Oh well..$26 and an afternoon wasted
