Enjoyed 9 holes at the end of the day
Just moved to Florida and trying out as many courses as possible. Had time for 9, was near Manatee, and enjoyed the experience. Gator pics on the 1st tee, nice layout, reasonable conditions, and good price thru GolfNow. Definitely want get back for 18!

Be prepared for 5-6 hr round
7 Minutes between tee times not enough. Signs about slow play not enforced by Ambassadors only seen at the first hole. Welcome to public golf in Florida.

Sandy greens
The course is in pretty good shape but the greens were newly sanded which made putting very difficult. But they are doing what they have to in order to keep the course up. It was pretty crowded and unfortunately, there was no starter or ranger which is unfortunate.

Clogged! Do not book!
Absolutely horrendous pace of play. Couldn’t finish 18 because of how clogged it was, they way over book their times. Greens and fairways were in fair condition. There is no number to call someone in the proshop, it redirects you to a call center in South Africa! I would never play this course again. So frustrating. Horsecrap
