Sawgrass/Turnberry at Waterford Golf Club

This is an average course but a terrible choice if you're visiting or you've never played it before. There's no diagram of the holes on the cards or anywhere else, so you're hitting blind off the tees on many holes. Some, like #8 on Gleneagles, in fact you're teeing off uphill totally blind -- with sand plus a lake at the top blocking the green. Other holes have a creek across the fairway, blind hills, or hidden water just past the green if you shoot a little long. Course management? Strategy? Forget it. It's very clubby and they say it used to be a strictly private course, so the management sees no need to give a map for first time players or "outsiders." If I was a tourist or someone looking for a different course, I'd skip this place. It's a bit pricy. And some of the greens are not the greatest. You can do better.

Course was in decent shape considering the amount of rain we've had. Some of the greens were a little rough but all in all we enjoyed the course.

Overall we enjoyed the course. Gleneagles had about 3 greens had a little damage to them and the tee boxes were a little beat up. But the grounds crew is doing their best to get it back in playable condition. I’m sure the wet conditions in the area is not helping out. The course was damp but expected with the amount of rain in the area. Turnberry was a great course laid out very nice and a little challenging. Had one green that had a little damage but it looked like that damage was probably caused by players that won’t take the time to repair their ball marks. Pace was great until the 16 holes where we came up on a foursome of two older men and women. The women were standing around talking before and after they hit their shots. The course was a great place to place. Likely will return when it dries out a bit.

Decent Fla summer course conditions. Greens were slow

with some sand or whatever still on them, but more than acceptable with the hot deal. Staff was great!

Our group has been playing Waterford all summer. The course continues to amaze us as to its resilience to heavy rain. Of course there weee areas with standing water, of course it was 90 degrees for carts. If you live in south Florida you get used to wet obstacles from time to time. From Leo at the pro shop desk to Charlie who runs the show. Waterford is the place to go.

Greens on Glen Eagle were Terrible All greens were very slow

First time playing here. Staff was first class, as were the facilities. We were supposed to start on Glen Eagles, but there was a league that got a late start, so we moved over to Sawgrass. It was a little swampy in parts. But overall, it was an interesting layout. Conditions were good. Glen Eagles on the other hand, was not very good. But I will be returning.

Discounting fact that greens were aerated and sanded recently, which was a waste of time and money, the greens are in need of complete renovation. Carts paths are a disaster, but they are doing some repairs. Fairways and tees ok. Bunkers not maintained daily, apparently. First played here 20+ years ago and will be 20+ years before I play here again.
