One of the better courses
After reading some reviews we thought we'd give Forest Glen a try. The first 9 holes were rather disappointing, however, the second 9 were pretty. Slightly shorter but very narrow. The greens are not in great shape, so overall an average rating.

Marco Island anniversary trip
I found this course on GolfNow and it had good ratings so gave it a try. The pace of play was a little slow but not bad (4:10 round). Course was in great shape and very playable if you play from the correct tees for your game. I played the back hybrid at around 6200 yards, 70.3, 135 and got around just fine. I did have a garmin to help with yardage and hole maps (carts didn’t have GPS). Staff was very friendly. I would definitely play it again. A very enjoyable day.

Great course but a little difficult for the mediocre golfer
Very well kept. Greens are perfect. You will lose 6-10 balls. It’s a great time and the staff is very friendly.
