Green as could be

The course is Green and plush. No weeds on the greens, just a bit slower than ususal. They are cutting them a few mm thicker due to the heat. Had 2 rain showers but didn't last but 15 minutes or so. Ultimately finished all 18 holes.

Rain, Rain go away

Got rained out on the 8th hole, but its Florida. They ended up closing the course. The course is in excellent condition. Really green with all the rain we've been having lately.

Great Municiple Course

Actually played the Pines Course, but it defaults to the Oaks Course for some reason. The course is in great condition. The fairways are green and plush and the greens are also full, no weeds or bare spots. All in all, excellent condition.

Bad Greens

Nice old municipal style layout. Fun to play but greens are in very poor condition. On a 4 foot put your chances of making it even with the proper line and speed are no better than 50/50. Really a shame.

Course in bad shape

Played the course a great deal five years ago and it was in great shape. They have really let it slide. Not a level spot on the tee box and all torn up. Fairways were full of divots and dead in spots. Greens had weeds all over. Used to be my favorite public course but will have to look elsewhere.
