Eagle Trace Country Club

This course was a former Honda Classic on the PGA Tour from 1984 to 1991 and then again in 1996. It has a huge clubhouse, however, it does need some renovations. We did have lunch in the clubhouse and we thought the food was good.

We played 3 courses on this trip. Eagle Trace ($120), Coral Springs ($102) and Jacaranda West ($212).

This course has excellent design and greens (best of the 3 courses we played). The first 3 holes are straightforward and then the course gets more interesting.

The only negative about this course are the fairways and tees. It is the old wiry Bermuda grass and it is not very consistent throughout the course.

This course has an unusual feature. They have numerous burrowing owl nest throughout the course. They used to be always in the greenside bunker on hole 15 - not anymore. I saw owls on hole 2 near the green and hole 18 (right rough).

This was my first time playing at Eagle Trace, must say the course was beautiful. It is a challenging course but it had a great time. The guys outside were friendly and good. After the front nine we stopped by the bar to get a drink. Unfortanuely there was no cart girl that day, which kind of suck. We dedicided to stopped at the bar for a quick drink. The bar was extremely busy and looked like there was only one person working the bar that day. Must say the lady working the bar she manage to assist us with our drinks and everyone else that was sitting there. We asked for her name and she said Maria. I want to say that she Maria was great, handling the bar by herself and giving amazing customer service.

Just our only complaint is the bar does not have apple pay.

Greens are in good shape, fairways are starting to green up, good challenge I would play here again as the conditions are worth the $

Fastest greens so far this trip. Like a lot of courses in the area - the fairways are in only fair condition. Very slow pace of play a marshal would help.

Layout is great. No for beginners.

Left after 14 holes due to slow play

Did not have this experience last year

I came down from western New York on vacation and this is a wonderful course that challenges you without beating you up. The conditions were great for winter (if you are looking for country club in July perfect, you just aren’t going to find that). I truly enjoyed this course, the staff was excellent, and I look forward to playing it again!

We liked the course layout,

Beautiful day to golf

A lot of water behind the green

Only #9 #18 got no water

Watch for out-of-bound stakes if you are playing for $$

Fast greens, challenging layout. no marshals so play was slow (5 hours). No yardage indicators in fairways. Course and carts needs some TLC

One of the best public courses in south Florida. The staffs are all friendly, but the starter is quite sloppy, artificially prolonged the pace of play,… am playing by my self, but they let a threesome go ahead leaving me sitting there for one hour, if I don’t ask, they will never approach me proactively. Such a shame!

We played 4 different courses while in Florida this year and for the money this one was my favorite. Pace was fair about the same as the other courses we played. Greens were decent, green speed was nice and not too fast, just wish people would repair their ball marks. Some T boxes could use updates. Course layout challenging with water on 16 out of 18 holes and many greens protected by bunkers but lots of T box options to reduce water risk.

Staff very friendly and helpful. Players of any caliber can play this course.

Solid place would play again. For sure could use some work but not insane for prime time in Florida

Very friendly staff!!
