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?

Played here a while back and the greens were in respectable shape. Played today and they're covered in weeds? Arguably the worst greens I've played on in this area. Charging $90 for a course in these conditions is criminal. Course is also severely overbooked. Wouldn't play here again unless conditions improve dramatically.

Overbooked constantly. Angry players are a minefield.

Our tee time was 12:52. We had to wait 30 minutes for a cart. Then we headed to the tee and there was a 5 group wait. We didn’t tee off till 2pm…

On 17 the group behind us started a shoving match with the group in front of us. Because every hole had several groups waiting to tee off, he shouted that this person was taking too long to take their shot and drove his cart onto the tee box. Meanwhile there are THREE groups on this par 5 in the fairway and green. It’s just a nightmare out there.

There are better choices

I've enjoyed playing the Forest course at The Eagles for the past 10+ years. However, the carts are really starting to show their age and haven't been updated with a GPS screen. The Tee boxes were in decent shape, and the fairways were OK for this time of year in Florida. The greens were borderline unplayable due to the length of the grass. They hadn't been cut in days so they were nearly impossible to putt on. To call them slow would be an understatement. The only bathroom at the "turn" was locked, so the only option was to use the woods, drive all the way back to the clubhouse, or hold it like the lady in our foursome had to do. The pace of play was over 5 hours, not due to it being crowded, but one or two slow foursomes slowed down play for the entire course. The beverage cart was a big positive with cheerful service and decent prices. Overall, for $90 there are much better options within 30 minutes of this course.

Love the layout

I have always loved the layout of this course. It’s not in the pristine condition it was 15 years ago but was not horrible. Still a lot of hurricane debris along the wooded areas but I am sure it will take a little time. Also, it was a ghost town. I felt like we had the whole course to ourselves. It was fun. My son and I enjoyed it.
