Tee Boxes Need Work

Greens were punched recently so putting is a challenge. Fairway were in good shape. Every tee box on the course was nothing but weeds and dirt. I hope the new management company invest to bring tee boxes back as we are finally getting some much needed rain.

Reds some work

The tee boxes were nothing but sand and weeds. Someone left a review that the greens were good but they had just been aerated the day that we went. There were no signs and no indication that the greens were aerated so we had no idea until we started. The fairways weren’t bad. Some of the bunkers were wet but that is just from all the rain. Def not more than a $40 round. No place to download pics of the tee boxes on here

I like the course, it's very fair for the average golfer with a few challenging holes. We are seniors and played the gold tees, I'm sure like all courses it's much harder from the back tees.

Greens are in good shape, just slow!

Great check in staff! Tee boxes are horrible, Very little grass and sandy/ many are crowned!!!

Fairways are decent! Bunkers have improved but not real sand. Glad Pope isn’t running the course anymore and hopefully the new management will take better care of the course!

Good Course

The course was in good condition, with some bare spots through the green. The greens were real grainy, so you need to judge the speed and break really well. The round was 4 hours on a Tuesday afternoon.

Good greens now

Had an early tee time so pace of play was not an issue. Tee boxes are atrocious but the rest of the course looks pretty good considering the drought. I play 2 or 3 rounds a week in the Bradenton/Sarasota area and these are the best greens in Manatee County right now.

Fix tee boxes, greens excellent

Tee boxes are a wreck. Fairways & greens are great but tee boxes create problems. Amateurs will hit from sand & ruin their score...located next to water treatment facility so the stink is thru holes 1-3 + 10-11. Cant fix that but fix tee boxes! Not currently worth $50/golfer.
