Plantation on Crystal River

Got a great price on Golfnow,com Hot Deal so I thought I'd make the drive up to Crystal River. Arrived and the Pro Shop is nice and clean with a nice grill room right next to it. Staff seemed disinterested with their greeting which did not come across as friendly or sincere either. Get a different job if you don't want to work with the public. Replacing some of the concrete cart paths on a few holes but the course is well routed and the course overall was in nice shape. Couple of bare spots on a few greens but they putted true though not that fact. Played from the back tees and hit 3 metal off most of the holes and shot a 85. Will play again when temps get a bit warmer.

Rainy Morning

It was raining lightly when I arrived at the course at 7:45 for an 8:20 tee time. No one else was playing, so I went out without a warm up. Playing alone with no one in front of me I played in 2 hours. The course was in good shape except for some concrete cart paths in need of repair - repairs were being done on one hole.The greens were good, layout interesting. It's not a long course and is very playable for the average golfer. I recommend it and would play it again.

Good value

I played early in the morning on a whim and was rewarded with a course that was demanding and fair. Many of the greens were in excellent shape, but not all of them.

Very scenic and relaxed round. A little hard to find a couple of the right tee boxes, but nothing major other than that.

Great Value

Got a 7:46am tee time for $10.00. Course was a little soggy, but in great shape. Got a little confused finding a tee box or two, but well maintained course at an unbeatable price = a good day :-)

The Plantation of Crystal River

I hadn't played here for at least the last 10 years, and boy has the place changed. The holes have been upgraded and renumbered since my last visit. Course conditions were excellent and the staff very friendly. We arrived about on half hour early and got to head out immediately. Green were fairly fast and it takes a good read to sink your putts. I'll be back again for sure.
