The Eagles Golf Club - Forest

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.

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.

Too many areas with no grass. Greens wee ok but not consistent.

This was a great course. The greens were in fantastic shape and the amount of wild animals was incredible. A family of deer, hawks, turtles, snakes, alligators and birds everywhere. It was a great day for golf.

There was a cart lady who had her hands full with both courses, but she was able to serve our thirst. So many sand traps, trees, tight fairways and water hazards that made it a very challenging game.

Buried in an upscale residential area of Odessa, Fl

these 2 golf courses were surrounded by lovely homes, well appointed landscaping and many long and narrow bodies of water. ……(with a variety of interesting creatures.) Staff were readily available with golf carts, a good morning, answers & a refreshment cart . The course was fun to play, probably bc we were matched with a fun loving couple from CANADA……. they were young, talented golfers and interesting. Unfortunately, the course was not in the best condition especially the tee boxes and a some of the greens. PACE of play started off slow, probably by 15 minutes or more yet finished within 4 1/2hrs.

The CHALLENGE ……course design and water “traps”.

Evan though this particular course was 90 minutes from home the ONLY time and price via “TEE-OFF” made it worth while.

Nice at check in and staff went out of their way to call me after I left my range finder. Thank you. Lots of hidden ponds just over mounds. A course guide or layout on the scorecard would have been nice. Practice greens were awful but course greens were pretty good. Poor range....off mats hitting water balls in to the lake range. Never liked those. But people were extremely friendly so give it a try. Also, the turn on the Forest does not take you back to the clubhouse...fyi.

I visit the Tampa/Orlando area for a long golf weekend with old friends every winter. This course has been on my wish list for several years. Some reviews made me nervous about course conditions but I was very impressed. Tee boxes were definitely too thin/sandy, but the rest of the course was in great shape. The only rough areas we noticed on greens were on a few edges. Pin placements largely took these bad spots out of play. The course layout, at a price far below many comparable courses in the area, is worth the trip.

Water and dense trees line every hole, so bring extra balls unless you’re able to consistently keep it in the fairway.

Nothing too fancy about the pro shop, but I hit 0 shots in there.

Excellent layout, but teeboxes was terrible (white teeboxes)

Need a better maintenance.

Tee boxes very sandy, fairways and greens fast due to lack of rain
