Not worth what we paid

And put your have played here many times and course was in good condition today we played the greens were terrible slowest. I’ve played on in a long time. Dead spots everywhere. Tea boxes were horrible. No grass almost looks like golf course is going out of business. Would not recommend this even to a Sunday Hacker

Still a mess.

Most T-boxes and greens are in very bad shape! Fairways show some imrovement. I live on the course and have been playing other courses near here, similar greens fee but much nicer condition. I hope this place can recover, its a great fun layout.

Green seem to be improving, par 3 tee boxes in tough shape. Staff, course layout, and price make it a solid summer deal for a guy like me just trying to get my handicap below 20

Really Struggling

Always loved the layout, and TBH never in the greatest of shape, but this was really bad. Greens were as bad as any I can ever remember seeing. A resident popped out of her house and told us it was because the sprinklers broke? No idea, but the course was in far worse shape then it had even been in before and greens we just unplayable

Course Emergency

I have written many reviews about King's Ridge Championship course and I'll say it again, this is one of the best layouts in central Florida. The problem is that the conditions are very poor. The greens are in horrible shape. It is almost impossible to roll a good putt. There are more weeds (goose grass) that make putting a nightmare. I encourage players to play the course to actually see the how bad the greens are. For the kind of pricing they are asking it is a very poor value. Please management put some effort and money into the course. Don't let this great layout go to waste. I think next time I play I will take some photos and post them.

Course In Terrible Shape

Kings Ridge was in absolute shambles for my round. Over the years, KR has never been perfect, but always consistently above avg. The layout for the course is outstanding. From Tee to Pin, the course was horrible. Tee boxes consisted of sand and weeds identifying as grass. Fwys weren't awful, but they certainly weren't good with numerous areas looking neglected. The greens were just terrible. They had been recently punched (no notification) but somehow managed to be rolling fast which made them all the worse. Major grab grass breaksouts on at least 4 greens. Bunkers in the middle of another 3-4. Parts of more than 3 of the greens were in such bad shape, they will require being completely re-done.

They are getting dangerously close to losing the course to permanently poor conditions.

The course is OK for $10-15 backyard bashing, but any attempts to actually compete on the course will be wasted.

Should be amazing…

Unfortunately, the course is in terrible conditions, and the greens are almost unplayable with weeds.

The layout of the course is amazing and it should be five stars, but with poor fairways and devastating greens and tee boxes it just needs to be dusked up and started fresh with new grass.

Poor greens

Greens were not playable. Not because of recent aerification but because of weeds, bare spots and poor maintenance. Most fairways ok. Played this course years ago and it was in good condition then. No longer the case. Just another Central Florida course in need of good course management.
