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.

GETTING BETTER
USE TO BE A MEMEBER AT THIS COURSE MANY YEARS AGO IT HAS CHANGED OWNERS 3 TIMES SINCE THEN THE RYE IS DOWN SO GO PLAY THIS WELL LAID OUT COURSE .BUT GO WHILE THE RYE IS STILL MAKES IT LOOK NICE I GIVE THE GREENS 4 STARS
This course is a great layout!
The course was not ion very good shape but it is a great layout and has some nice holes. The staff was very friendly and the pace of play was good. Hopefully the will over seed for the winter and the course conditions will improve.
GREAT IMPROVEMENT
GREAT IMPROVEMENT GREENS ARE BEST IN AREA.WILL BE FANTASTIC WITH OVERSEEDING
Course is Improving
This course has gone from a beater to one with alittle more work could be very good. It has improved alot since i last played it about four months ago. For the price and if you are just starting out give it a try.
Nice course for the money!
Fairways need some work, greens are great. Course is in a lot better condition than the last time I played. I can see their efforts. I will definitely be back.
On the comeback
The improvements on the course over the last 18 months are noticeable and welcome. The greens are excellent and fast; we played winter rules in the fairways and allowed drops that took us onto grass. For the money, the round was well worth it. The layout is interesting and when the fairways are finished, this course will be a true destination.
Cant tell where the fairway starts and the rough ends.
The course was in rough condition to say the least, but the staff was very friendly. That being said I would not play here again just because I don't like playing out of the sand when in actuality I was in the fairway.
This course has a very friendly staff
Some of the greens could use some work. The rough is very rough. But all together a nice course with a friendly staff. Plenty of water coolers along the course.
Good course and getting better
I played Mayfair for the first time in June, 2013 and I've enjoyed playing there since then. The course does need some work but the Staff is working to improve the fairways and I was told the greens will be we worked on next year. Great value for the money.
Much Improved!
It had been a while (2 years?) since I had played here, and it is MUCH improved since then. The greens were in really good shape. Some of the fairways still need work, but they are apparently working to get the course back in shape.
Needs work
The Glen Abbey course needs some serious work. The greens are the only bright spot on the course. Tee boxes and fairways struggle to have any substantial growth which makes it difficult to entice future play. The course needs a budget infusion to help get to the next level.
For less than $1/hole you can't expect much and you don't get much.
There is no distinction between fairways and rough, it's all one large area of unkept grass and sand. Tee boxes were barely distinguishable from the unmowed grass around them. Greens are in ok shape considering the rest of the course. The looks of this course are as if someone had a large plot of land, carved out a few holes in it, cut the grass down to a certain level and just let it go. Nothing like hitting a nice drive down the middle of the fairway only to find it land in a stretch of sand and weeds in what I guess they consider grass. Paid $16 through golfnow and this is by far the greatest you get what you pay for course. Don't go in expecting anything and it'll be a surprise the one or two times you find nicely kept grass in the fairways. Won't be going back for a long time, also, no grass driving range, all mats.
Excellent Greens
The greens were in excellent shape rolling a little faster then average and true. The course has a nice layout really fun to play. The staff here are super friendly. If you play here you will not be disappointed.
Old school tree lined Florida style course
12:44 tee time. Similar to Cypresswood Golf & Country Club & Lake Orlando Golf Club. Generous tee shot landing areas. Fairways needing attention, sparsely grassed w/ several areas on every fairway having no grass @ all. Roughs are rough, making it difficult to find errant balls quickly. Accurate shot making is a must on this course. Best attribute of this course is it's greens. Proshop attendant bragged about them & she was right. Rolling fast & true and in great shape. Most picturesque hole is #11. Carts are gas powered w/ windshields & raincover in back.
this course has a nice layout
I always liked the layout of this course, played it often. they made some changes, improved the condition of the greens, and fairways are getting better, need a little more time to continue to make more improvements.
Greens are very good!
You can score on the front nine but the back will be much tougher with hazards.Fun course to play!
Course is good for all skill levels.
While there needs to be some work done on some of the tees and fairways, the greens are in great shape. Depending on the tees you select, course will play easy to very challenging. A great value and a wonderful time. Great staff.
Can not beat the price !
Less than $1 a hole will make almost any course look inviting... Although the fairways and first cut were a little touchy, the greens were in great shape for this time of year. I have paid much more for a much less enjoyable experience. Recommend!
