The Eagles Golf Club - Forest
About
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.

Wonderful
One of my favorite courses here. Great layout. One hole I don't like (really, it just doesn't like me). Tees, fairways and greens are in excellent condition for summer in Florida. Electric carts, with GPS. But be careful getting too close to the greens. A great day!
Thank you for your review, 88bogeyman. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at The Eagles Golf Club - Forest. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
The starter was very unorganized. Tee time was 9:52am and didn't end up teeing off until almost 10:30am. No ranger on the course ensuring pace of play. Large groups should be monitored to make sure they are not holding everyone else up. Overall took 3 hours to play the front 9.
Hello. Thank you for reviewing the course. We apologize for the delay of play during your round. This is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We work hard to accommodate everyone who visits our course and to best control pace allowing everyone to finish in a reasonable amount of time. We will continue to look for ways to improve, and we are glad to see you rated the course conditions to be great during your game. Thank you for playing The Eagles Golf Club - Forest. We hope to see you again soon.
Weather Hurt
The course had long rough and even fairways. Get it the weather has been real wet. That’s hard to mow, but that didn’t help my game

Greens were at moderate speed possibly because of the incessant rains we have had. Course is challenging. Overall a good experience… looking forward to playing here again.
Hello, prafuul. Thank you for visiting us at The Eagles Golf Club - Forest. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
The worst conditions of ANY course in the Tampa area
Terrible tees, greens and fairways. It’s too bad because it is a very nice layout that has steadily gone downhill over the past ten years. I won’t play it again. The first impression is the putting green and driving range, both of which have not seen any TLC in months. How hard is it to grow grass in the summer in Florida.? Not very! If I was a member I would resign. If I was an Eagles homeowner, I would move.
review
It was one of those rare days when we got rained out....didn't quite finish 9 holes when we called it a day after constant heavy showers....the course was in fairly good condition considering all the rain we've had this fall.....we will return on a better day.....

Great day on the golf course
Pastured golf with my daughter and we had a blast on the course.
Forests golf course played beautifully and so did we.
Can't wait for the next time.

Greens need a haircut
First time played the course nice lay out some quirky little holes with water carts have GPS the only real downfall to the cost right now and it's probably because of the time of year the greens are extremely fuzzy

Interesting course
Pretty wet, a lot of rain lately causing the wet conditions. Not a lot of standing water but the ground was saturated. Was not notified of paths only but after attempting to drive on the fairway immediately returned to path and continued on the paths the rest of the day. Conditions were very good except for about 2/3rds of the tee boxes which were pretty sparse. Other than that, the fairways and greens were in pretty good shape considering all of the rain. Storms were threatening so course was fairly empty and pace was exceptional. Layout of course is to my liking, as they varied the hole designs nicely. Highly recommend.
Hello, Gjtmay. Thank you for visiting us at The Eagles Golf Club - Forest. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Normally excellent, today just ok
I enjoy playing the Forest course, it’s normally in top shape. Today was a bit rough. Tee boxes were abysmal, you really had to move around a bit to find a clean spot to tee up. Greens were really long and slower than usual, need to be mowed.
We’re in the dog days of summer so I understand at this point with all the rain there may be some overdue maintenance. My only real complaint? We teed off at 9am and didn’t come across a cart girl until the 15th hole! We nearly died of exhaustion since there is no water available on the course and there is no turn on 10. That was brutal.
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve and are working diligently to improve the course. Thank you for playing and we hope to see you again soon.
Great course all around
Playing 36, combined with the Forest course is great. Value is spot on
