Sad Staff

I have played this course several times and enjoy the layout. Unfortunately each time the staff and course managers ruin the experience. Except for the lower staff, cart, greeters etc, the old dudes seem to loath GolfNow players. I'm 65 and was placed with high school kids! My single cart was taken away and I had to double up! So I couldn't play my game at all. The kids were polite but couldn't play golf and wanted to party. In front of us were a 5 group! (Old men) behind were a 3 group, old men, either I could of played with. The starter was rude when I explained I needed my own cart (it wasn't that busy!) this is isn't the first time I've seen this 'I don't care' experience. I won't play this course again! And I'm getting rid of my Bayou hat. Thanks again guys!

Average Florida Course

Fairly average course for Florida - flat and forgiving. Had a nice round , conditions were fine, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Just not nearly worth the price given nicer courses in the area priced similarly.

Haven't ever given5 stars but for early March the course deserves it. Clearly the best conditioned greens in this area and the fairways are coming in nicely.

Shirt and fair

Nice little track greens were in excellent condition. Not alot of difficulty playing the track not much to derail the game as far as fairway bunkers. Designed for fast play which it delivers in spades. Bit pricey co sidering some of the other top end courses in the area.

This course is over booked and charges too much for its conditions and layout. Not a good value for the money.
