Glen Abbey

The course has some rough areas that needs attention but overall it is a great layout. The price is reasonable and the staff is courteous. I would definitely recommend it if you're in the area.

Just a few greens away

We play this course a couple of times a year because the course is interesting and fun to play. I was pleasantly surprised with the conditions of the fairways - very good shape. Most tee boxes were good. But the greens hurt our review. If they get the greens back into shape this will be one fantastic course. And with the most friendly staff and cheap drinks after.

0 order

They have no starter, overbooked the course to oblivion. Had a normal 2 hour front 9, waited on every hole but nothing excessive and it’s expected sometimes with golf. Started the back 9 and since their was a huge jam on the front, the decided to have people go to the back nine which was already busy, took over an hour to get through 2 holes. We went back to the pro shop and she said just play the front nine again. Nice people, but 0 order and no one really seeming in charge. Not worth playing here for the headache. Too bad because it’s a nice little setup of a course.

Money Value

I booked the tee time as a Hot Deal, it was worth this amount but I don't think I would have paid full price and been happy. This is the 3rd time that I have played this course when I vacation here from Canada.

The greens are a little rough and uneven but playable.

All the sand traps were in decent shape with lots of sand

Tee Boxes could have been better, bare spots on some.

Very easy to check in and the lady in the pro-shop was very friendly and welcoming.

I did not use the bar / restaurant.

Good for only a practice round

I play here occasionally just to work on shots. Greens today were half dormant. New growth in patches making it impossible to put on a line. Played in the afternoon. It's the only price I'd pay to play here. Hopefully the greens grow in after the cold spell. But don't bring a friend unless they don't mind playing a sub par course.

Greens are the worst in the state

I play here on a weekly basis and was hoping we were getting better. The fairways and tea boxes are a little better, but everything else is absolutely horrible. The greens are the worst in the state of Florida and are barely playable. I will not play here again until the fix the greens. Two couples that were coming in when we did same exactly the same thing. Pay the extra few $$ and play Deltona or DeBary, or add 10 strokes to your game and play here.
