Start off saying I love this golf course!

Sadly, the greens are just poor. Not fair, poor.

They show signs of repair and sanding, but playability is really impacted. It's a shame because this aa really great layout, with every shot in your arsenal called for.

Very nice clubhouse, friendly staff, and the price (on Hot Deal) is actually worth taking the hit for conditions when the rest of the courses in this corridor are getting just ridiculous pricing.

Let's get these greens in shape and get Cimarrone back on the regular rotation!

Course will be great in about 2 or 3 weeks

Love the layout and amenities but about 75 percent of the greens are covered in sand. Give it a couple of weeks and should be great.

SINmarrone Golf Course

Greens were horrible. They put a LOT of money into this place and they WERE on the way back from being terrible...BUT - whatever they did to the greens ruined them AGAIN. The pace of play was brutal - to be fair we were behind an outing of 16...BUT instead of 4 4 somes...they played as 4 threesomes and a foursome. Strange in deed.

Greens in Horrible Shape

Challenging track with lots of water. Greens were in horrible shape. I won’t be back for a while until they can restore the greens.

Coming back nicely

First time playing Cimarrone in eight months. The course is in very nice condition. Some of the greens are still a bit spotty, but they are working hard to get them back and it's paying off. Twelve of the 18 greens are good with the remaining six still coming along, but they are puttable and should continue to improve. Will definitely be back because it is one of the most challenging courses in JAX.

great course

This is is a terrific course. We love to play it.

The greens were not in good shape on some of the holes. They look to be completing routine maintenance. Overall it is a great course to play.

Good value

The course from tee to green was fine. A few of the greens are in poor shape, but #7 green, historically a problem, looked good. But hey- we're amateurs so who cares. If you're picky about course conditions, then spend a fortune and join a private country club. If you just want a fun day out on the golf course for 40 bucks, Cimarrone provides it.

Turning things around

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The fairways and tee boxes were in very good condition. The greens were in poor condition and were very slow but they should be better in a few months.

If the greens were faster this place would be a no brainer

Played on a Friday morning and the greens were pretty slow. Not sure if that is normal or just an unfavorable mowing schedule.

The course recently stopped allowing carts in the parking lot and the older attendant outside could not have been more rude letting everyone know.

Otherwise it was a great day to play!
