Average course super slow

Course was decent but nothing special. When they have the students out playing the pace was at a crawl. Slow play epidemic trickling down to even practice rounds at the high school level.

Perfect challenge for my level.

Course conditions were well maintained. Greens were firm and fast. Practice area is ok with mats. Limited length driving range, 240 yds. Staff was friendly and helpful. It wasn’t a difficult course, but a good challenge for me, 8 handicap that hasn’t played since Nov.

Par 3s

The only draw back is that the Par 3s are all the same length. Sand was not in the best condition but mostly playable.

Good course and conditions - but a 4.5 hour round

Course is in good shape and the greens are some of the best in the area. But my Saturday lunchtime tee-time was a mistake - the course was jammed up with IMG Academy kids, who have no sense of pace of play. Also not sure why the starter was allowing several singles to go out one after another rather than grouping players together.

This is a legit course

I have always wanted to play this course. Finally drove over a little over an hour away to play this beautiful course. From beginning to end, this place made you feel like welcomed. The staff were very friendly, the chipping range and driving range were complimentary and the greens were fast. This is my favorite course, forget the price tag. It’s just a really good course.

Great course

A little expensive but that’s the sign of the times. Always enjoy this course. Fastest greens around. A little slow play due to Img students walking. Played in afternoon but not bad time wise 4 hrs. One of the best courses around

Course is playing well and the greens are in very good condition. Somewhat pricey for what it is, but one of the better pay-and-play courses in the area. Pace of play was a problem (Saturday morning) and they could use a marshal keeping pressure on the painfully slow groups.

Good shape and great pace of play

We got out early which was good for pace of play and the course was in very good shape. Only negative was that the IMG golf teams took up all 12 spots on the driving range and none of the coaches or staff moved any of the team to allow for paying patrons to warm up.

Liked the course trouble with GOLFNOW

GOLFNOW - pulled a fast one on me today. I took a “Hotdeal” on their app for $74 at another course (NOT IMG). They took payment but didn’t give me the tee time. I found out that the tee time was still available, but for $139. (What is this merchant behavior called? Something like, “bait and sw…)
