Nice Greens

As often, play at IMG was a moderate speed, had to team up as well with other players. Greens were in top healthy condition, ran a bit slow, but true. Tee boxes could be a bit nicer. fairways and rough was well maintained. On course service cart, came around twice, and pace was around 4 hours, with a bit of a backup here and there. Staff was friendly, and starter and ranger did not rush.

Some of the best greens and bang for your buck!

Played in 3 hours, greens were phenomenal. Nlh downside was pro shop staff was a little gruff. He also didn’t believe I had paid 20 minutes after I had paid him. Love the course and will be back!

Will give this course another try.

Nice course bur pace of play today was terrible. We waited on every hole and every shot. However, I will try it again before I take this course off my list of courses to play.

Greens are awesome

Pace of play is super slow and it’s a bit beat up. The greens are awesome.

Too many back and force holes with tee boxes close to each other.

Good course.

It was expensive. Course was fun, not super long, in good condition. The greens were as fast as I’ve played anywhere. They were lightning fast, but pins were in good spots, nothing too punishing from hitting a good putt.

An enjoyable track - with excellent greens right now

The greens are superb right now - playing quick and very true. The course is a good test, and usually pretty good value for money in the summer months.

Great shape

The course is playing well from tee to green. The greens are rolling fast and true, there no bumps and lumps to putt through. The fairways have grass, also the carts have gps.

Overall the course is a gem, considering the drought we are going through, cudos to the grounds crew. Just wish I could book directly through them with the same price I paid with the rip-off company golfnow. I really am disgusted with golfnow and they antics.
