Typical course for the area

Played this course dozens of times over the last decade with my parents because it's next door. It's been in better shape and it's been worse. Every cart has a chunk taken out of the seat where your left leg rests which is odd so you need to take caution it doesn't rip your pants or scratch you. Fairways lack grass right now, greens are playable with only a few spots here and there that need attention. Not worth the price we paid but it was a holiday and usually it's almost half that which is ok for getting out and hitting the ball around. Would love to see the conditions improve to what they once were, it's an enjoyable little layout.

Good value at $20

Have played here several times and at the $20 price point a great value. Rough is cut short so no longer a problem finding balls.Good layout with tree lined fairways. Good mix of par 3's and par 5's.Had 10 wings for $10 and they were pretty good

Fun Course!

Spruce Creek Preserve Golf Course is not only a fun course, but it’s also beautiful and a good deal!

We started out being greeted with a smiling and courteous Pro Desk staff!

Grabbed a cart and was happily surprised to find they updated their carts!

Course was busy but no waits! Course is in great condition and greens too!!

We’ll be back there soon!!

Never going again.

The staff there is usually pretty rude, atleast for me. I’m younger than most golfers who play there but most of them live in the neighborhood. Any young person who comes to play golf we are treated like we are not wanted on that course and it isn’t just me, almost all of my friends who have played there said they feel the same way. The pace of play is ridiculous, they will let groups of 5-7 play on separate carts and take up as much time as they’d like, I was also actually just charged $40 to play a round yesterday when I usually pay the normal $27. Terrible public course, with terrible staff who have terrible manners. Never again.

The course is not in the best shape, but everyone is very friendly and they are working on it. The condition is much improved since I played there a couple years ago.

Average Golf Course Experience

Course is in ok shape overall. In town for the weekend and most courses were booked up and this course had open availability. Few greens need some serious work, one was half burnt out and layered with sand. Fairways on most of the holes were the same cut level as rough. Overall, if you’re expecting a lot in return for the price of golf at this course, don’t set yourself up thinking that’s going to happen.

Stay out of the Oaks

The course layout has a tremendous risk/reward off the tees. The large Oakes are throughout 12 of the 15 holes yet the fairways open up once out of the tee boxes. The overseed on the fairways is needed and a better watering plan. Really loved the work done on the greens and there condition. They are very true and flat. Can be your best round in a long time or a score you gotta forget.
