Golfer Reviews
Great!!
The golf course is in great condition, green, and fairway are in fantastic condition. Found some wed are but it doesn't affect the outcome of the game. Congratulations to the greenkeeper.
Worth the play for the right price
This course is no Pinehurst by any means but for a cheap and quick round this is most definitely not a bad course to play. I can’t recall too many memorable holes but I know there were some good ones. Overall it’s a pretty generic course but I had a great time playing it.
Overall Good
Played at 8AM and we had a fantastic time. Greens were in good condition and so were fairways, some tee boxes were sandy. Good mix of challenging holes, like the almost 600 yarder. Just play it.
Silver Dollar
The course was long, fairways and greens were in good shape
People were friendly and accommodating
It is always in good condition
We have been playing this course every time we come to Florida. Compare to lot of other course around this always are in good shape.
Then is it a really nice place with nice and friendly people’s.
Needs TLC
Played the day of a tournament and we were on one of the 9 holes that's used for that purpose(I think).Just needed a little more care all around.Still a good track.
First time on Bobcat
We played on a day where there was a tornament, so we had to play bobcat and panther. Bobcat needs some work probably is a course that isn't used unless there is tournaments. Overall Panther Gator is awesome. We will play
Silver Dollar Day
I’ve played this course before and it seems to always be in good shape. A lot of locals play here but theyre all friendly. I’d definitely keep coming back.
Rude staff
Old guy (senile?) in pro shop tried to tell me I was late for my tee time ( I wasn't). Overall incredibly poor attitude. Must have to be a geriatric in order to receive courteous and respectful service. Previously liked the course and recommended it to friends, but will have to tell them to avoid playing there. Will never play there again.
Need to CLEAR THE CLUMPS OF GRASS...PLAY THIS COURSE
Upon turning onto the access road, one is struck with the sounds of gun fire coming from the shooting club across the road...reception was neutral as I was early, and was able to get out to the starter early...hit a small bucket into range that was being MINED...per the Pro Shop...would call it, being dug up...the course was interesting in that, due to the recent rain levels, the grass must have exploded in growth...since there were GRASS CLIPPINGS LEFT EVERY WHERE...sadly, add in the FL sun, and what happens is they turn to garden compost quickly and the attendant smell was noticable...course could do with some updating of signage for directions to each hole...ICE WATER for drinking/towel wetting was available...all in all, a good value, but needs to get a large blower to move that grass off the fairways...and the homes are modular and carts will be passing directly outside some back yards...still, all in all, a good day...just the grass left to basically rot...easily fixed with a large blower...PLAY THIS COURSE WHEN ALL IS SAID AND DONE
Good place for cattle and sheep
No grass on fairways, Greens are slow and bumpy. Hard to hit good ground stokes when you are hitting off hardpan 90 percent of the time.
