Very nice golf experience

Staff was very friendly. Excellent practice areas. Course was in great shape. I rode in a cart but this is an course that can be walked easily. Nice layout, not too difficult. I would really like to play the course again.

Pace of Play Frustrating

Pace of play was hurry up and wait! Slowest I've ever experienced here. Was very frustrating, took us 4 hrs and 40 mins to complete a round.

Great course and in excellent condition. Staff is also great. But the long waits and backed up T-Boxes was a little much today.

A constant

Img as always is in great shape. Practice area before the round is always nice, and the guys working are great. Today there was a large group of out of staters playing and it dragged the pace to a crawl where 5 groups were on the par 5 7th. Unfortunate break today with that, but play here often and will keep doing so.

Through golf pass we thought we had a 9.38am tee off but we only teed off 10-15 min later. The starter said that his was the right time . In the heat, I did not cross check who was correct. Anyways front staff, greens, fairway tee box, cart path was awesome. Good value for $. Layout was kind of easy. Definitely play again. Main gripe is you have to be done by 7pm with your carts. In Florida summer most enjoyable golf is 5-8.30pm and is a travesty they have this limitation.

Good Course, Excellent Value, Will Return Soon

From the minute we pulled into the parking lot and were greeted by Tom (the cart guy) we were made to feel appreciated at Misty Creek C.C. Course conditions are only rated average in this review as greens had recently been punched and sanded and thus greens were very, very slow. However, the price reflected this temporary condition. The tee boxes were uneven. Fairways were lush but hadn’t been cut the morning we played. It’s easy to see that this is quite an excellent course and we look forward to returning soon.

Do something about slow players

After 9 was playing with 2 other guests and was behind twosome

Waited on every hole- they played multiple balls, stood over shots and drove extremely slowly to each ball

Marshall spoke to them on 10th hole but did nothing

Need to do something
