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.

Nice course and tough

Course was a lot of fun, gps on carts is also nice. Going again on 06/05 after some rain, course was dry just like most courses around Florida due to no rain.

Nice course

It play a bit slow today, it was a holiday so it makes sense.

This course is nice, you can play it short, and use the white tees, or if you have been watching lots of PGA tour, go for it.

And play the tips..! Hope your handicap is up to part.

Lol enjoy..!

Don't bother

If they would have handed me $20 dollars back after my round with an apology I still would have felt ripped off. $50 in the summer in Florida should get you much better conditions than this. Tee boxes were bare and sand, fairways patchy and some greens had sand all over parts. Layout helps shots that seem good find water. I'll never return, for the money West Chase is in way better shape. It's a tough course but it's well kept, at least it was two weeks ago.

Nice course, Fun to play

Eagles Golf Club /Forrest

Haven't play here in several years. The course was in great shape. Tee off at 11:30 a.m. and finished in 3 hours. We were a twosome. We had a group of 3 in front of us on the back nine and they were kind enough to let us play through on #11. They were quick to realize that they were slowing us up. Nice people and nice to see that some people still know golf course etiquette. Wonderful day on the course. I will be going back.

Beautiful day not to be working, great round

Weather was perfect and course played dry,meaning you got extra yards in fairways. Greens were approachable and not too fast. You could play breaks and consistently same speed. A lot of work went into clubhouse and an expanded drink menu is available. Food was great for quick bite. Staff pleasant and helpful. Enjoy holes layout and challenge.

I played the forest about 9 months ago and was very pleased. I played it again a few weeks ago and the fairways didn't recover from the winter burn, the greens were average at best overall very disappointing.
