The Eagles Golf Club - Lakes

14 of 18 greens were basically a patchwork of bad repairs and bare dirt. We did not have one putt rolled true.

The fairways are ok, but the tee boxes and bunkers were terrible. We paid $80 for a weekend morning and it was not worth $20. The course should be closed until the greens are playable. It’s a disgrace to charge what they are for a course in need of serious repair.

I love this course and play probably 20x a year here. Currently the greens are rougher than I've ever seen. No mention of this when booking or paying. I'm not sure if the forest side is any better right now. As soon as the get the greens and tees up to snuff it will be well worth the money again. No sign of bev cart the entire round either.

No more! Over half of the greens appear to have been lost to what I assume to be disease. Fairways are sparse & weedy. I have greatly enjoyed playing this course for many years & was greatly disappointed today.

The good: we as a 2-some teed off on-time at 8:15a and finished in 4:10 (if you’ve played here, you know this is a miracle). Props to the 3-some in front of us that played quick. Always a fun track/layout.

The bad: the course was in ROUGH shape. 50% of the greens were basically dirt/mud or fresh sod patchworks (which we conveniently weren’t told about until after we checked in and paid), putting was nearly impossible. And 75% of the tee boxes were basically dirt/sand with no grass at all. Absolutely unacceptable.

The fact they have the nerve to charge $75/round for that is a travesty. We had played there just over a month ago and it wasn’t nearly this bad. Won’t be going back until conditions improve.

very poor conditions, borderline unplayable from the tee boxes to the greens

Conditions here are sad at best. 4 or 5 greens were simply not playable. Sad to see what this owner and manager has done to this once nice course.

They’re working to regrow sections of the greens, but roughly a third of the greens are unplayable at this point. A few of the tee boxes were mostly sand, which also took away from the experience. A few groups turned around on the front nine to go play the Forest course due to the condition of the greens on the Lakes course.

Beyond terrible conditions, course should be closed and major renovations done! Worst course in Tampa area by far, and I’ve played a lot of them.

It is definitely not worth it for the money they charge. The greens were in terrible condition on almost every whole.

I’ve played here before, normally in great shape. This time around, not so much. The course was in rough shape, especially the greens. I’ve played it in great condition so I know the potential. The golf carts seem to be downgraded as well. I’ve played there when the golf carts had GPS, now they don’t have them? If I had known about the greens, I probably wouldn’t have booked. $60 for a course with pits and holes on the greens is terrible value.

Greens were in terrible condition which was sad cause the forest course was excellent 2 weeks ago. Way over priced for the condition of the course.

The lakes is a well layout course, my concerns on the day were the greens. They were not good at all. It was probably 1 in every 5 holes that were good quality. The greens were very patchy but I can see the potential in the course.

I will probably go again to see if there is any improvements.

Almost every green has patches of sand and missing grass. Don’t bother reading a putt. Now I see why it was $35 after 3pm.

The only bright spot out here is really the bunkers and the layout. Raked and taken care of accordingly for the bunkers. The layout is good and can be tough with some trees and doglegs. But the fairways and greens are miserable. This one needs some work. As an avid golfer I wouldn’t try again out here for a while.

$90 for this course is honestly insane. I wouldn’t play here again even if it was $20. The greens were non existent on most holes, just dirt and sand patches, tee boxes are basically sand or uncut grass that’s very uneven. Potentially the worst course in Tampa and $90.

Fairways good, tee boxes OK, greens have many burnt areas.

Course was okay. Once again the cool, wet Florida winter didn't do it any favors. Conditions were fair to good at best, but

the price was decent so one can't expect a TPC golf course. It is challenging but forgiveable for the most part. I would play here again!
