Shot makers course

Some of the greens were in poor shape in spots, but pace play was good. Very hot and humid by the time we finished up. I will play there again.

course is well lid out

Played 18 holes on June 19 2014 the course was in good condition the greens were good with only an occasional bare spot great for this time of year played the white tees as I am a senior golfer and had a junior golfer in my threesome. the staff was great and the resturant had good food. our play time was good as there were not many people in front of us. the only down side is the course has 5 holes that are through the development and a little tight. the other 13 holes run through a beautiful forest area with small lakes in abundance. great course for the money

Great challenge!!

Short does not mean easy! This course plays 6100 from the tip but has a great layout. Position your tee shot correctly if you want a direct approach shot into the green. The greens were air-raided and on their way back when I played and if they would have been intact, I would have rated this 4 stars!! A must play, if you are in the area.

This course provides a great challenge.

I would not let the yardage determine rather this course is going to be easy. If it is short, know that something is going to make it a challenge. I love the quietness and the peacefulness of this course. Too much rain is not good for this course.

Great value!

Played the Blue Tees. Not very long. More of a "target golf" kind of course. Plenty of water and traps. Great day!

Great staff and course

This course has some challenges with the front 9 going through woods and the back 9 going through the houses. Lots of water. It has some short par 4's but placement of drives is key. The staff was great, the starter was especially helpful and nice. I definitely will return and recommend this course to others.

Hurry up and wait

Got to the course hour before tee time to hit some on the range. Starter came over and told us we were next up, tee time was for 11:03am it was only 10:38. Now normally not a problem but for some reason we had a foursome just teeing off and a three some on the green. Slow play for the round still can't figure out what the rush was all about. I enjoy playing there however this has left me shaking my head.

Lots of water!

The course conditions were good except that it had rained very hard the day before and there was a lot of casual water on the course, we had to keep the carts on the cart path which added to it taking over 5 hours to play.

Short and tight course

The fairways were average but the greens were quite bumpy and the cart paths needed attention on parts of the course. There's a lot of short holes and you can score well if you hit it straight.

Better than DC

In Florida as escape from winter in DC. Perfect timing. Course is old but fun since it's mainly a target course and tests one's course management and accuracy.

Great course for condition & value & scenery

By far the best we have played to date, pretty course, island green, great condition good food, friendly staff and very well priced.
The only negative is pace of play but that will not stop me from coming back a few more times before I go home.

Challenging and Tight

When you initially look at this course you say, "Oh it's not very long" but it may not be long but it has many somewhat short par 4's that make yo leave the Driver in the bag. It's a fun course to play but don't hit the ball wayward because you'll be playing from the trees.

The greens were fair but had a lot of hidden breaks that can cause some three putts. My only complaint about the course is that some of the OB's are too close to the fairways not giving the golfer any kind of a bailout area.

Value wise it's a real good deal.
