Made a Friend
The course is average at best but is was worth the price as I hane not played in four months due to the snow. Met an older gentleman very nice and amiable.. We played in 3 hr and 20 minutes with no problems. I may play it again based only on price, The staff person was a jack of all trades and friendly. If you are looking for a decent course and it;s your first time playing this year, it;s fine..
Always a good round.
Greens and bunkers were great, fairways could use some help. Always matched with very friendly people, and have never had a bad round. Hit it straight and you will score well. Friendly staff.
Challenging but fun day
Always professional and friendly staff, outstanding greens notice tee boxes improvement. Some tight lies on some fairway. But overall playable. Always challenging and nice layout. Very affordable green fees in Palm Beach County. Must play for low & high handicap players.
Can’t beat $40
Quick round for $40 can’t really beat it or ever complain. About what I’d expect for that price range - good spot to get that swing right with the boys even though most courses will have some actual grass to play on and some semblance of rough. Well kept course just nothing much to it. Would go back.
Conditions Fair to Poor
Little grass on fairways and tee boxes give the strong impression that there is not much money for upkeep. Mostly par 5’s and par 3’s for a weird layout. Doubtful that we would return here.
Best greens in the area
Fun course with a creative layout and decent shape. My favorite part was the green conditions which are kept in great shape. They also have a cafeteria with food made to order. The staff was super friendly. Great value for your money.
Yardage signs
Everything is good for the money with this course. However looks like they have not updated the yardage on almost every hole. The distance shows over 50yards more on the signs compared to our range Finder. Had to use or one every hole and every hole was off
