Silverthorn

Have not played at this course for awhile. I created a list of about 50 local courses that are not too far nor expensive.

This course is by far one of the worse. Fairway baren and numerous dirt mounds. did not even bother to rack the traps since they don't seem to be maintained. Tee boxes need attention. Only plus is that most of the greens looked in good shape.

This has to be the worst golf course in the state of florida No grass in the fairways and the people working the clubhouse had terrible attitudes. They should be ashamed to steal money by calling this dump a golf course.

Terrible pace

It took me 3 and 1/2 hours to play 10 holes. For me that is totally unacceptable. Had I continued to play it would have taken 5 and 1/2 to 6 hours. I cannot recommend that anyone play there at this time of year.

Nice layout requires all the clubs in your bag.

Course was in good condition. Needs a little grass in the fairways. Greens were in great shape. Rolled true and weren't real difficult to read.

Great Course

Super fun course with lots of interesting hazards and course elements. Fairway could improve, but otherwise it’s decently maintained. For the money, it’s hard to beat.
