Eagle Trace Country Club

We arrived just after 9 for our 9:33 time. We were greeted by the starter (Mark I believe). He asked our time and directed us to the pro shop. Easy check-in, bags were loaded. We got off on time. It was a Saturday so I did expect some slow play. We moved around ok until the back 9.

The course was in great shape from tee to green. Greens were quick and rolled true. Two times the ranger let us know he was pushing the group in front of us. We played in 4:45, slow but not enough to ruin our day.

We enjoyed the course, the beverage cart and overall had a good experience.

We will be back.

Nice layout. The greens rolled true but we’re firm. That surprised me since it rained early in the morning. I enjoyed the pictures and reading about the course’s history and pictures of the Honda Classic.

The last time I played this course (before this time) was last year . I wasn’t to impressed with the course condition and price. It feels like a 180. The course is in great condition now. I played 54 holes in the last 2 days! The greens roll true and the fairways are nice. The price is well worth it. Very fair. Challenging course

I arrived and put my bags at the bag drop area that did not have an attendant, then walked to the pro shop where I was greeted with a smile and an enthusiastic woman who quickly checked me in and gave me a quick rundown of where things were. The smile and enthusiasm of the staff quickly evaporated when I went to the starter, who seemed irritated that they needed to go get my clubs from the bag drop, and even more irritated when I showed up on my teatime five minutes early but he had already sent out the twosome I was supposed to play with. His attitude and words indicated he thought it was my fault and when I told him it wasn’t even my tee time yet he just kind of looked the other way and puffed. He remained gruff and angry, saying, “ Just go to the first tee then.” He met me there and told the foursome on the T to let me go first so I could catch up with the twosome I was supposed to play with. Again he said that he’d been looking all over for me, which was odd because I was having lunch 30 feet away in the bar, where apparently he doesn’t look for people. The course itself was fun to play, wide fairways in good shape, fast greens which were mostly not undulating. Unfortunately there was heavy rain the night before so the bunkers were still wet. If I had to base my review on the starter I wouldn’t come back, but the pro shop was great and so was the lady in the bar, even after she was an undated when a junior tournament was pulled in off the course due to lightning. All in all, it was a very good experience except for the one starter, who hopefully was just having a bad day and doesn’t treat everybody as I was treated.

Eagle Trace is a very challenging golf course that will test all elements of your game. The recent course facelift includes new greens that are still maturing and improved course conditions. We had a hot day, so we were very appreciative of seeing the beverage cart three times during the round. All the staff was very friendly and attentive to our needs during the round. We didn't stay after for a beverage, so I cannot comment on the facilities, but I'll absolutely be back.

Eagle trace is a beautiful course but it takes almost 5 hours for a round of golf. This is my second time playing and both times have been over 4.5 hours a round. There was no rangers or anyone to speak with about this issue and seems to be how the course is run.

I had heard some horror stories about the condition of this track over the years but then a friend told me that they had brought it back.

Conditions were good and we had the course to ourselves.

Not a place for hanging out after your round though. While the course is in good shape, the amenities are not.

No one out there on a Monday early very enjoyable relaxing round. Very helpful staff overall. One nit when i went to the bar noone was there even though the proshop said it was open. It was locked feom outside but theybsaid to go through the locker room which i did but noone was there. Oh well overall very enjoyable.

Ok course for the money. Quite true roll on the greens.

Honda classic was held here 1984-1991 and also 1996. Players hated the course for its tricky wind conditions.

It was tricky wind when I played it aswell but overall it was an OK course an it had some beautiful holes.

Hard course if played from blue or black. I played it from blue.

Lots of owls nests in the bunkers wich led to that on some holes I decided not to hit from bunker due to avoid scaring the owls with their kids.

Perhaps the best shape I’ve seen it in for years. Greens were rolling true and in very nice condition. Tees and fairways were nice also. Great layout.

Pace was slow which is why I prefer to play weekdays. Still had a great time. Staff super friendly.
