Fast on the back

Not a bad value, course isn't in top shape, bumpy greens but a good test. Had a 3pm time, and thought we would only get nine in, but it cleared completely on the back and we played the last nine in an hour!

Fairways are sketchy, but I just fluffed the ball up as required.

Soft

The course was probably the greenest course I've played in Florida. I don't know if the course is naturally soft or it was overwatered. I had to clean my ball after every shot and a couple of balls got lost because they plugged in the ground. The greens were slow because they needed cut and rolled. Tee boxes were a little beat up. Overall this course has a lot of promise and I would definitely like to play it again when the conditions improve.

The only two issues were extreme slowness of play due to lack of oversight. The other complaint is no cart person offering food/drinks.

Other than those, the course was beautiful, the staff was extremely courteous and the experience was very pleasant.
