Super Value for 18 Hole Course

The golf course played well with open fairways and limited water and sand to contend. The weather was perfect on this Saturday with a Super Value for 18 holes. The staff and amenities are very friendly. Belinda at the pro shop was a treat and delightful in conversation. I needed some extra golf balls and she helped me with a purchase. Thank you Glen Abbey for a fun filled day for my and my son.

Good layout

Enjoyable day, pace was excellent. Some tee boxes, fairways, and greens need some work. I took my daughter out there to teach her the game and it was a great environment to do so.

Tee boxes and greens are horrible

Most tee boxes have little to grass and 1/3 of the greens have holes are bare spots. You have to in the middle of the Fairways to have a decent lie. Waste land is everywhere. Easy to get on and play. No tee time needed.

No dress code enforced. No refreshment cart ever.

If you play after 3pm it’s cheap so it’s okay. At full price $35 it’s only barely passable.

Do not expect much when you play here.

Staff is extremely friendly and beer is ice cold in the bar. Only two pluses for this course.

Course conditions

Course was in good shape considering the drought conditions central Florida is having. 90 percent of greens are puttable. Grounds crew working hard to make it better. Nice local course. Good deal for the money. You pay for what you get

Practicing Golfer

Best practice course around. Greens are in good condition, their best shape in the last 2 years. Fairways are poor with a lot of wild grass, but mowed its easy to play from. Wide fairways and mowed rough areas makes this a great place to practice without loosing many balls.

Not a championship level course, but for the price I plan every week.

Don’t expect much

I think the course is great for last minute booking for a good price. You get what you pay for though greens are rough fairways are full of crab grass and things just look over grown. I got out for 26 bucks and I will say I still had a great time.

Nice course nice layout

Courses is a very nice layout. Considering the condition of the overall course tee to green, greens were in above average shape..

Given the fact that we are in the midst of a drought I will give them a pass on Fairways and tee boxes.

One thing that they need is a Ranger… I played behind a couple of big drinkers. They were taking Mulligans on it appeared every tee shot. They were not raking the traps. On one hole one of these guys took three shots to get out walked through the entire bunker went out on the high side and did not rake one footprint. Never looked for a rake.
