The Eagles Golf Club - Forest

Playing the forest course, more water than forest but a nice layout.

Will be back again

Round booked on GN for 2:07 on forest course. Upon arrival it was obvious a golf tournament was scheduled. After a lunch checked in and ready to go practice. There were no carts available. Tt prior to mine on forest course could not start no carts. At 2:40 got a cart headed to first golfers waiting. Almost 3 now to start. Very slow play first 9. Some golfers left at turn, finished at sunset.

Tee box conditions were not good.

I take no pleasure writing this review. The decision to book tt when they could not provide carts, begs the question don't you care about your customers?

Great time! Course was in good shape, the four of us had a really good time, despite the very chilly weather. Course is laid out so well and we enjoy being out there. Only negative on our day was the hot dog food truck pulling away, as we were playing the 9th hole. I shot a 55 on the back and I swear it was because I missed out on a couple of dogs!!! HAHA! Wings in clubhouse, couple of pitchers and playoff football capped off the day!!! Will be back soon.

Most tea boxes were in very rough shape and the greens were scuffed up, mostly by players dragging their feet. It also seemed like they packed as many players as they possibly could, so the round was 4 1/2 hours plus

I went there on MLK day so yes it was packed teed off at 3:15. Scheduled at 2:45 but they were behind. The pace of play was very slow but the staff was working hard. Some of the greens are in good to great shape but then most of them are just barely puttable. The course for the price is not bad but tee boxes, the tips for sure, need a lot of work. Hard to find a decent place to tee off from on more than half of them. But overall I will come back because it is not a bad track and makes you hit shots.

I thought the tee boxes were recently sodden. What happened? The rest of the course wasn't mediocre. Brought a friend from out of town and told him I really liked the course. Embarrassing. Could have gone to many others in better shape.

Wow!!! Been playing this course dating all the way back to the 70’s and never thought I would see this course in such crummy condition. For starters the driving range is all but that and probably best used to work on your sand game. Many of the Men’s Blue and White Tee boxes were sand as well. No ranger on the course meaning pace of play was an afterthought. Greens were the only bright spot but had a handful that were rough. And fixing ball marks on the green must now be a thing of the past or there are too many golfers who think they are too good to fix their own and maybe one other. Considering I teed off at 12:30 and only payed $40 it still wasn’t worth it. I don’t see myself g back any time soon.

Great layout the water makes you think. Fun to play.

Wonderful experience. My son land I loved it.

We are coming back in two weeks.

Good parts- layout is good, fairways were decent for not over seeding, some tee boxes. Fairways not over seeded. Played for $25 in the afternoon. Not worth $60 for a morning tee time.

Not good. Fairways not over seeded. No one ever checks pace of play. Greens- some were hideously bad and slow.

Seems like most courses have been upgrading their courses except here. Has a very nice layout that hasn’t been kept up to standard of a quality course.

Two nice 18s. Reasonable fees, course in good condition. Golf staff very friendly. Bar staff complained about job related things most of the time we had a bite at bar after. Turkey club and reuben are very good!

Recently went and I understand it was New Year's Eve day, however waited until 20 minutes after our tee time to even get a cart. Tee boxes had grass, fairways had grass, greens had grass furrier than 80's shag carpet. If you like to swing your putter like your driver, play here, you will love it! I have played this course a lot since I've lived in Florida for 20 years, darn shame the forest greens are slower than the lakes.

The greens.

Two major complaints, both fixable:

1. PLEASE consider giving our divot tools to players, whether they are residents and members, or guests.

the Greens are badly marked, and there's no excuse, this is a simple education and reminder thing that some divot repair is expected by all, even if you didn't land on the green! The worst example are the close shots into the par 3's, where the better golfers should know better and their marks are circling close to the hole!

2. Please consider making the greens a bit faster. Divot marks aside, the course is as good as I've ever seen it, but the greens weren't cut, and the ball rolled slow. I'd been warned about it from neighbors, but it's worth bringing to your attention.

Thank you!

Horrible green conditions and are very slow this course use to be fantastic now big disappointment.

White tee boxes in very bad shape. Greens were very slow, needed trimming. What happened to any and all ball washers?
