Designed by Ron Garl and Gary Koch, the Forest Course at The Eagles Golf Club features the signature island-green sixth hole which rivals the famous 17th hole at the TPC at Sawgrass. The two outstanding championship courses at The Eagles Golf Club are kept in "tournament condition" year-round. As its name implies, much of Forest course winds through an impressive pine forest.

Tee box need lots of work. Green we’re the best either. What do you won’t for $35 bucks. Wish l would of golf here when the conditions were good. Layout required you to hit 3 woods off some off the par 5 which make you play position golf which is great.

North Tampa Gem

60 bucks to play at 9 am! Why do I really like this course? Let me tell you. Two courses together, ample parking. I was able to drive the included Golf cart to my car, the cart didn’t shut off if I drove too close to a squirrel or the putting surface, and the course was well laid out. Was it in awesome condition? Was it in 60 dollar condition? Absolutely! Loved the shaded aspect, loved the water features and really loved the “ were not Cypress” attitude. This is a recreational golfers golf course. If you approach your play as Augusta worthy, you should go there. If you want to play a nice course in Florida with shade, not operated by zealots, this is the place.

Go somewhere else!

Nothing good to report!

All tee boxes are trashed, dirt and dead grass absolute garbage. Bunkers are trashed, very little sand, hard packed, terrible! Fairways are hit and miss, lots of dead spots. Some of the worst greens I’ve seen, they are lost, they may have to be completely rebuilt from the damage already done.

Awful

I chose this course solely based on the reviews. I couldn’t be more disappointed. The tees, fairways and greens all were not maintained. The greens had missing turf from fungus. There was no cut difference between fairway and rough. The sand traps have lost their perimeter. The tee boxes were dirt and sand. Unfortunately the practice area was exactly like the course and I knew going out I was not going to enjoy a good lie anywhere on this course.

I would not recommend this course.

Eagle

Was moved to Lakes corse due to a mix up. Lakes course was not in good shape. Talked with the Pro Shop and they gave us a free round for the next day on the Forrest Course. Really appreciated the customer service. The round on the Forrest was great. The course was in much better shape and we enjoyed the round

Slow day on course

The course in fair condition with areas under repair and greens needing some help. Got behind 4 foursomes of ladies that were fairly deliberate in their play but caused 20 minutes delay off 1st tee. Group playing behind us was impatient and hit up couple times.sometimes you just have to relax and enjoy the day. Had a better than average personal round with plenty of par and even far amount of birdies.

Weather was perfect but never saw drink cart all day. Food truck instead of clubhouse is offering on Forest course.

Hope they can work on greens and freshen bunkers.

I like the layout.

Greens aren’t consistently cut. Some faster than others. Backnine is more consistent but some bad spots.. so I saw it fair to enact local rules & move the ball no nearer to the hole and have a smooth putting surface to the cup. Sand traps are hard and compacted.

Back again.

Had a deal from GN. Have played there before and liked the course a lot. Some of the tee boxes are a bit chewed up from the heavy play (snowbirds - including me), but the greens were in GREAT shape. Good course. Wish the deals and prices were better more often.

Shady

This place is out of control with fee's. They charge you a $5 fee for using a credit card and I saw what I can only guess is a tax fee. On the receipt it showed a .75 cent fee right under the tax with the exact same description of the tax just without the word tax.

Painfully slow but like the course

We’ve played here a number of times over the years. Course was not in great shape but still ok on the fairways - some real bare patches on occasion and the tee boxes are in really really poor condition - they just need a bit of TLC - an important element of the overall presentation of the course!

Buggy issues when we arrived meant that the whole field had been delayed - something we’ve never experienced before.

Greens were in excellent shape - not too quick and nicely receptive. No ranger meant the pace of play was very poor unfortunately. We will be back to play the lakes because we love the eagles but hoping we don’t have the and issues around buggies and are hoping that the course is in a little better shape.
