Good for what it is

The Good: Staff was very friendly, greens are very smooth for Florida in December, the practice chipping green and putting green is good, course was short and fairly easy which made it very enjoyable to play.

The Bad: Pace was slow

The Ugly: the driving range is 200 yards max and it is mats, the mats have weeds growing through them which is a first time thing I've seen.

Always good

The greens are the pride of IMG but a close second is their fairways as pictured. The defense on this course is the green side bunkers. Great layout, friendly staff. Great day at IMG

Always a Challenge

After playing IMG many times I've decided that one needs their A game to score there. Every green is very well protected by bunkers or water, there's no running the ball up to the green. The greens are quick with subtle breaks and are in good condition. The sand in the bunkers can be a little uneven, some have good sand others are thin. The grass on the tee boxes can vary, as the course gets a lot of play. But overall, it's a fun course to play and always a challenge.

Great course! Challenging enough to make it fun!

I’ve played this course for the last several years and other than the driving range (almost destroyed by Milton) it’s in great shape. Chipping, sand shots and putting practice areas all available! Really enjoyable day of golf!

Looks like a resort or private club

Very open course, wide and forgiving. Great conditions. Feel luxurious.

Not to difficult. And many holes are similar so the variety and challenge could be a bit better
