Camelia/Boganvilia Golf Course at Cleveland Heights Golf Club

Fareways always in good shape. Few greens need improvement

Have played here several times but this was the worse. There were a group of FIVE and they were holding everyone up. The threesome in front of us called the clubhouse to let them know but no one addressed it. Several greens were in rough shape. Our cart almost died on us on the 7th hole and barely made it up the slight incline on the 9th hole. We were told they have a number of them that do that 🤬 The new cart the brake wouldn’t lock for us. Terrible all around experience

For 30 bucks, you get what you’d expect - bad greens, slow pace of play and staff that do not go out of their way to be friendly. The starter always acts like you are an inconvenience. Again, it’s 30 bucks so get what you get. If you’re itching to play a round but don’t want to spend the money, just lower your expectations and CH will do the trick. Their grill is very good, so that’s a plus.

All three 9s are open for play. They are working on the greens with the amount of sand still on them

Course played great this past weekend! Greens were in great shape! In the past they weren’t. It was good to see them in shape!

Not crowded for a Saturday afternoon and pace of play was great. Will be playing again!

A lot of holes on B & C are unplayable so the 18 holes were reconfigured to 3 each from them and 9 from A.

A reconfigured scorecard was provided

Greens were in good shape. Course a little wet some holes were cart path only but over all good day.

Course was really wet and greens in bad condition, especially for the price. It’s been several years since I have played here and it has definitely went downhill. I’m not sure what has changed to cause this course to be poorly manicured, but hopefully they invest to make it how it once was. It is a great layout and great location.

everything was nice, the fairways were a bit soggy though (had to play it up and hadn't rained in over a week) and the greens had chunks missing out of portions of them. Around half of the sand traps essentially had to be played as Ground Under Repair

Great place to play in the center of lakeland. They do a great job of maintaining this course for a municipal course. Pace of play is a little stressful as they are rather busy and you can get sandwiched between several groups. We had a group of 8 in front of us which I wasn’t a fan of. Sometime you have people driving carts right in front of you bc they hit on yours and they don’t really pay attention to you even if your set up and already addressed the ball. This isn’t the courses fault but a warden would be nice. They do have a cart girl who regularly makes circle so you can always get something cold to drink or a snack if you didn’t bring anything.

My issue is mostly with the course layout and the result of this decision. The course layout is simply trying to do too much with too little space. The 27 holes are crammed into a space that is too small for it. This leads to groups getting lost, hitting into fairways directly next to one another, hole skipping, congestion and most importantly unsafe conditions. More than twice did we have to duck for cover as a ball would strike near us only to have no clue from which direction it came from as there were 4-5 groups around us all playing different holes. A case could be made that the course could also be kept in better shape if you removed a third of the holes which would give maintenance to remove the sand traps that resemble mortar rounds, fix the scuffed greens around the perimeter that looks as if people sneak onto the course and chip off the greens or even repair the war torn cart paths. The course is just trying to do too much and somebody is going to get hurt. Maybe don't put the next hole's tee box directly behind the greens of the preceding hole. You've designed the course with professional player precision, but no pro would play this course in it's current condition. So then the question is, who is this course for? The grass needed cut badly and the St. Augustine hid balls. Other groups twice hit balls in the rough that didn't belong to them thinking they belonged to them because in some places you have maybe 10-15 yards between fairways that are packed in like sardines. I almost needed GPS directions to get to some holes (See 7C).
