The course features 3 sets of tees for different skill levels. The greens are bermuda grass and the fairways are winter rye.

Crepe myrtle, elderberry and oleander plantings are an aesthetic addition to existing magnolia, oak and towering pines which frame most fairways.

Saturday golf

Course in fair condition had a threesome slow as heck in front of me that turned into a foursome on the sixth hole? Then in front of them was a five some in which I'm on the green and their tee off lands on the green besides me. Still as always a good day golfing. Won't be back there for a while.

Glen Shabby

Shabby shape to say the least, huge bare spots on several greens, crab grass in abundance on most as well. Definitely not worth the 40 dollar fee. Appears there isn’t any greens staff to improve the conditions in any way possible….

Good Value

Very friendly staff. Course was in fair condition. Great layout, priced accordingly. My only gripe is that they don’t have golf club covers on their carts as it rained a little. I will definitely return to play here again.

Tough review for some wonderful employees

Decided to try GA after a 2 year absence and found it in rougher shape than I noted years ago. My lady at the check-in desk couldn't be any more friendly. Her smile lit up the room. Only wish her attitude could have been carried out to the D course. Even after some rain the course was fairly dry but extremely uneven. Way too many bouncing areas which shook up your cart and a lot of areas just pure dirt where you had to move your ball from the hardpan. Greens weren't bad but also ran into a group of 6 with 5 carts on # 11 who never acknowledged me as a single so had to finally just go past them on 13. I recognized one of the ladies on the turn in the pro shop so figured this group was probably regulars who were used to getting their way. One of my favorite courses is close by, Debary CC, so I'll stick to going there if I'm going to travel 1 1/2 hrs.

Nice people, badly needs some course attention

Nice people. But the course is almost unplayable. Tee boxes really bad. Lots of unplayable places on the course. Greens were not terrible, but lots of weeds . Really wish that they would put a little bit of money in taking care of this course.

Will Definitely Return

I’m going to make this course a regular for my golf outings.

Course: Unlike so many other golf courses, Each year the Glen Abbey staff make noticeable improvements. And golfers like me notice and appreciate a challenging yet achievable golf course that is well laid out. I could not give them a 5 in every category,,,yet! But I have no doubt that one day they will achieve a 4.5 to 5,

Staff: Very pleasant staff, they make you feel welcome, like your a member or a golfer they see everyday. Even the local golf course homeowners and residents do there part; they say hello with a smile and maintain their yards and houses

Value. Where else can you get a medium size bucket of practice ball for what other course charge for a small! The entire course and experience is well worth the low cost!
