Not worth what they charge

Haven't played this course in years since it was southern woods. Grabbed a tee time for wife and I at $40 apiece and looked forward to it. But The conditions of the tee boxes and fairways were awful. The greens were so so. I refuse to play courses like Rivard and The Oaks because it is like playing in a cowfield, and this was pretty dang close to that. Wife and I actually quit after nine holes because it was just frustrating with the lies we got, even in the middle of the fairways. Won't be coming back.

Fair value

We love the course layout, proximity to where we live and the course facilities. The price was terrific when using hot deals and promos, but grass was scarce on many fairways. This is common on public courses with sand based soils and limited budgets. It was great value for the deal we had.

The fairways are getting better. Some t areas are bad like #7. They really need better yard markers especially for 100 yrds.

Keep improving fairways and t areas. Greens are best they have been in a long time. Need better distance markers. Some painted sticks wouldn't cost much and would be much appreciated.

Course in terrible shape

This course is in terrible shape, t-boxes and fairways are rough and uneven like a potatoe field, bunkers are dirty and not shaped.

In my opinion they would have to close down this property fpr 2 years and completely re-do it.

It was by FAR the worst course Îve ever played!!

Stakes

We play this course a lot, 2 times last week, 2 times this week. The yardage markers are extremely hard to find. The bird houses help for the 150's but you have to search for the 100"s. For less then $100 it would improve it so much if stakes painted red were on each side of the fairway or one in the middle for the 100 yard mark.

Worth it if you can get a coupon

Had a terrific round today. More for the 3some I accompanied but the course is playable and Hopefully, management is attempting to turn it around for the positive. Greens were just ok, weeds are there. The layout is so good. If they could just grow some grass after the rye goes away and start spraying for preemergent weeds. Still not sure if the course superintendent knows what he is doing.

take your GOLFNOW VOUCHER

Course is okay-greens smooth and fast. Fairways are typical Florida, little grass, keep carts in rough!Played this course several times this year. THRU GOLFNPW, without any difficulties, and without taking my reservation form. Monday desk agent knew I booked thru GOLFNOW, but would not honor the reservation without having the paper. First time he would not believe his computer this year. Instead of my golf now fee of $45 for 2 players ( with my discount points) He charged $86.00. We are going to go back and argue my receipt from golf now.

Going down hill

Use to really enjoy playing this course but as of late it has taken a turn for the worse. Grass on some greens was getting sparse with aeration cuts that made your ball bounce instead of roll, fairways were dry & rock hard with grass patches (back nine was in better shape than front) but sand traps were in good shape. I constantly hear that the new owners are trying to improve the course but it seems the club house is more important. This is an ok course for $18 to $20 bucks but you’d be crazy to pay more.
