Price you pay is what you get

Cheaper price course but course was pretty good. Working to make it better. Pace of tournament players was so slow tho. Group was a hole and a half behind the group in front of them.

Still a work in progress

Lots of work being done on the course. Most of the greens are in good shape. Fairways are being aerated and are rough in some places.

Bottom line, rates are very reasonable these days and the course was not crowded. Pace of play is what you make it and the course still has a pretty challenging layout. While I would love to see it as it once was, I still recommend playing it today.

The course seems to be coming together - recovering from the cold winter and the work they are putting into it.

The greens are better and the fairways are good but there is still much that can and should be done. Give them credit - they are trying.

There is still work that has to be done on the greens and

some of the tee boxes. It has been very dry but now that we have gotten some rain - heavy rain at times - the

course should respond to the welcome water.

There are about 4 or 5 greens that NEED attention. Everything needs rain and fortunately we got a little on Monday.

Better than last time

I was skeptical about playing Glen Abbey again after my last time a couple of months ago. I was pleasantly surprised that the overall condition is a lot better. Fairways and greens are much better than some of the other courses in the Deland/Deltona/Debary area. Worth the money.
