So much for the deal!

When I arrived for my teatime, I was told that I had purchased a nine hole round, not 18 holes. I knew this was wrong, but not having a printer I had no proof and as such I had to pay an additional $20. Annoying!

Fun

We played 9 holes just to warm up before leaving town for Sawgrass. Helpful to have that peninsula green. Extremely friendly staff. Fun course.

Tougher than you think....

A fun challenge. Course is always in great shape and greens are well kept and fast. The practice area is really a great feature. My only issue was coming off the 9th and restarting at 1. It was around 4:30 and the starter had left. A family of 6 was teeing off 1. They were holding up 2 other twosomes. Too many tourists to not keep a starter at 1 until the day is over.

9 holes,

Lots of beginners which made pace of play slow, if you are playing 18, you have to play 9 holes twice, Thought it was expensive for just nine holes.

Worst in Orlando in 35 years of golf

The reviews on line have never been so far off my experience over the last three decades in Orlando. Might be a contributing factor to my utter dissatisfaction. I never fill these out and I am a person who tries to be objective, fair and frankly quite positive. So I will say 1) the cart paths were well maintained, 2) the carts were in new shape, 3) the sand in the bunkers was high quality and 4) the restrooms were clean and spacious. Problem is the tees boxes were chewed up, the fairway was a patchwork covered with leaves and ill defined, and I do not think one putt on the 9 holes I played ran true to the hole. Hard to tell if it was real or artificial. I was so disgusted with the course condition, for the first time in decades, I left after 9 holes. I just wanted out. I hope this course makes it. I wishi it or the menbers no ill will. I might becoming a snob in my old age, but I have paid the same or less at a few nine hole courses in the area that would be rated 10 stars if this one rates a 4. This is not right and makes we wonder how legit the reviews are.

Slow Slow Round... 2 hours for a short yardage 9 holes

Twosome in front of me was awful and extremely slow...they were playing the back tees and should have been playing the forward ones....one of them probably lost a dozen balls. Course is short but has it’s share of trouble and there’s no such thing as a straight putt. Course condition is excellent. Restaurant and bar is normally open all day but due to Covid only from 5-9 PM now. Have probably played here 10X ... usually enjoyable,...this time not so much.

Beautiful, but Short, 9 Hole Course

This was a fun course to play. There are only 9 holes, and the longest Par 4 hole is just over 400 yards. The course was in great shape and the layout was fun to play. Fairly open but some water comes into play on a few of the holes. Pace of play was excellent as it was not too crowded even on a Saturday. We finished in just under 90 minutes. I would definitely play it again.

Nice course well maintained but pricey

The course was very nice and very well maintained but was advertised as an 18 hole course when you are just playing the same 9 twice. Found it to be a little to expensive for only being a 9 home course.

Great Score

I got the early tee time and really helps with pace of place. My best day of putting and not sure if it was due to the green conditions or something else.

MAN OH MAN!! Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!

OK, full disclosure. I was extremely skeptical when I booked the reservation, because it was a nine hole course you had to play twice. However, when I arrived, by the time I parked, I could already tell it was going to be a fantastic experience. The course was in amazing condition. The fairway grass was purely a joy, and the greens were in masters competition condition. This course was an extremely challenging course, that forced my game to be incredibly intentional. I will for SURE be back to play this course again.
