Nice setup at Heron Bay

The staff were very friendly and the course a good challenge. Some very interesting holes and lovely views of the water (where some of my balls are…) Bunker sand could be a bit better and some of the tees a bit scrappy.

Nice Course - Greens Need Work

The course has a nice layout. We played on a Sunday finished and just over 4 hours. The tease and the fairways are nice but the greens could use some improvement. Unfortunately the clubhouse is closed, for almost a year now.?? :(

Potential to be excellent !!

I would say the only thing letting this course down at the moment is the greens. The tee boxes, fairways and bunkers are all looking great but the greens have looked poor for a few months now, im not sure what happened as they looked pretty good earlier in the year, otherwise this is a nice looking course !

What happened?

I’ve played here plenty of times. Some times it’s in better shape than others. This time was way below average. The tees and most fairways were ok. The greens were horrible. Many burnt out spots. Looks like nobody even attempts to repair ball marks. Sad.

Greens & Green Fees

we paid $80 to play an entire course that the greens were destroyed! 1-18 greens were molded and damp! Unbelievable that they would still charge that amount with no heads up or offer a discount! Never again and wouldn't recommend this course to anyone. I guess they're staying afloat by hosting tournaments... SAD!

Greens were rough.

Greens were in pretty rough shape. Fairways had a lot of mowing debris.
