Underrated interior-Florida golf

Pinecrest is one of a handful of courses that erroneously claims to have been designed by Donald Ross, when the reality is actually more interesting. It was laid out by Bertie Way, who was responsible for the original courses at Firestone in Ohio. Despite a stunningly narrow yardage range for the par 4s, Pinecrest gives some nice variety as a result of the elevation changes one encounters throughout the course. A standout hole is the par-5 6th, which plays though orange groves.

Pinecrest is a bit off the beaten path, but visiting golfers are likely to find it worthwhile not just because of the charming course but the warm welcome provided by the staff, especially Kay, whose title is “Director of First Impressions.”

Course is always fun to play but it would have been had the pro shop informed us that they had sanded the greens, but not one word was given.

Great Donald Ross course

First time playing this course I was really looking forward to it and it didn’t disappoint the course was immaculate fairways and greens .its a typical DR layout with elevated green’s which were perfect there was plenty of fairway space just make sure you hit them . Plenty of tee boxes to choose from to challenge your game . The staff in the pro shop were great and very knowledgeable and friendly didn’t have a chance to check out the restaurant afterwards but heard it is good . I recommend this course and will definitely be going back

Best Bang for Your Buck!

We visited Pinecrest Golf Club last week during the heat of summer and this golf course is like a cool drink of water! We had a fantastic experience from the customer service we received in the pro shop to the lush green fairways and the immaculate greens. We had high expectations with this course being a Donald Ross design, and it exceeded every single one. How awesome to realize we walked in the footsteps of professional golfers like Sam Snead! The layout of each hole is just impeccable. The holes are roomy. I felt like I had "elbow room". Yet each hole is challenging in its own right. We will definitely be back when we're in town!

P.S. Go Buckeyes! 😉
