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.

Excellent course

This is a very challenging course due to the tight fairways and amount of forest and water. It's a thinking course and not for the driver-enthusiast. Irons let you land more accurately.

A bit jammed up the day that I played, but the weather made it the perfect day for golf.

Lots of birds and Alligators!!

Was not worth it

Pro shop staff refused to wear mask.

Tee boxes were chopped up and mediocre.

Pace of play was fine but we were rushed off by staff for an afternoon tournament.

We started at 8:30, we had plenty of time, no need to rush us.

Condition has decreased.

Heaven on Earth

The title says it all. Perfect weather and conditions, along with the best back nine known to man. There is nowhere else I'd rather tee it up. Blue skies, deer, alligators, and a good buddy to play a round with. Stick a fork in me, I'm done!

Great place

This was my first time on the Forest course and I loved it. The course was in good shape and the layout was very nice. I'm an intermediate golfer and I was challenged but not overwhelmed. The play was a little slow but that rarely bothers me. All the staff I encountered were very friendly and helpful. I would play here again any time!

Our favorite course so far

We have played the Forest 2 times. We are 82 & 80 and like the tee boxes available for older golfers. Everyone we came in contact with was very friendly and eager to answer any questions The course is in great condition.

We enjoy seeing the wildlife, the first time we saw deer on 4 holes and a young Osprey. Today was very sunny and we saw 5 or 6 alligators of various sizes, one 10-12'.

My husband and I are looking forward to playing The Eagles Golf Club a time or 2 before we head north.

Nice course

Fairways and rough conditions are average similar to most other courses in the area! Hole design especially on the back nine sets this course apart! Greens were fine overall and fast enough to make it enjoyable! Definitely recommend playing here!
