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.

What Happened?

I used to play this course a lot back 2002-03. I made a visit back as we have moved back to Tampa area. It was hard to find a grassy flat spot to hit on the practice tee. Tee boxes were either bare -- like trying to get footing in a bunker or newly and poorly sodded. trying to get a good footing was nearly impossible. May be conditions will improve to warrant the $58 green fee but definitely not worth the money today.

Nice course but a few problems

The Forest course is a nice layout with variety to make it interesting to play. Two things were negatives. 1. the greens were a bit bumpy so many were quite slow without a true roll. 2. Overwatering on tee boxes and some other areas made course feel far wetter than it should have been. You should not be slipping and sliding on tee boxes in dry weather

Better out there

Tee boxes were in HORRIBLE condition. Greens were so full of sand, the ball left a trail. Fairways were average at best. Honestly I would have rather played Silver Dollar, even with the Shot gun sounds. Very disappointed with the “prestigious 0 Eagles. Boo!

A secluded nature preserve

I've played the course many times and really enjoy the back nine. You play and wind through one forest setting after another with few houses, and lots of deer. So relaxing, I don't worry too much about my score.

Dont play after rain

Rain ruins this course. Horrible wet conditions. And right now the course AND the clubhouse are under construction. So... bad tee boxes and bad amenities. If you can grab a cheap tee time its worth it. But dont waste your money untill the finish renovation on AND off course

Don’t recommend

I figured I’d give this course another try. It had been 7yrs. The Forrest Course was in below average condition except for the greens. One of the par 3’s was a made up green about 75yds away with horrible tee boxes. Tee boxes were all in bad shape.pace of play was great because it was mostly empty. Staff was friendly and the drive in was nice. Range finder in the cart. I may try the Lakes but I will not play the Forrest again.
