Silver Dollar Golf & Trap Club - Bobcat/Gator Course

Excellent course maintenance and landscaping. Plenty of water hazards which add to the esthetics of the course (and challenges). We really liked the big green umbrellas along the course.

Greens were very well maintained and beautiful course.

Too sad.... What could it be a great Golfing day turned to be a wait-to-play day. Our tee time was for 8:00am and since the beginning at hole #1 there were ground keepers on all 18 holes there after. Regardless that there were NO players behind us for at least one hour something that should have been taken in to consideration. Bottom line...not fun at all!!!

I have played this course before, I brought a friend for the first time. We both enjoyed the day, we even seen 3 deer's on the course. It was well worth the money, the green's were in great shape. Looking forward to play there again.

Course was in good shape, especially the back nine where the greens were in much better shape than front.

Played the course twice , last Friday and Tuesday of this week.

On the first hole on Friday, my pardoner was bashed by a course employee for failing to rake the sand trap which was located at the edge of the green before he had time to do so.
Welcome to our course.

Yesterday, as we were making our way across the fairway on our way to the green, another course employee threw his hands up in the air and said"thanks for riding across the tee".

The tee was simply a spot in the fairway, not raised, and we simply did not recognize it as the red tee.

Bottom line, my partner and I have played many years and would never knowing do anything to hurt a course.

Two time at this course and two times admonished for something .

We will NEVER play at Silver Dollar golf course again.

Lots of twists and turns....first time player should play with someone familiar with the course. A few straight holes but those are narrow. A short course with the exception of 3 par 5's which are longer than the norm.

Overall, course needs maintenance completed...work in progress. Greens have improved much but still a little rough. Fairways need work.

The fairways are patchy, tee boxes are torn up and uneven, and this past weekend the greens were absolutely horrible. I got a great deal on golfnow ($16, morning tee time) so I figured "what the heck" but for the money they charge there are so many other better places to play. Perhaps my expectations were a bit high based on what they charge to play here. I recommend playing here if you can get a discounted rate.

lacking grass in fairways--- greens are a pretty color green from a distance,but mostly weeds and very bumpy..

This isn't a PGA course by any means, but if your goal is to get out and have a nice round of golf without complaining that you didn't get to play a great course for very little money then this is a nice little course. If you want a great course in great condition pay the big bucks and go to one, but don't expect to get a GREAT course for the price you pay here. This course is fun and I like the sunshine, fresh air and playing golf without spending a bundle and this course met my needs and expectations.

We are coming back next week and bringing golfers with us to play this course. Guess this says it all.

I wish I could write a positive review. I cannot. I know the saying is "you get what you pay for". Is this ever the case. I was in Florida for the PGA Show. I wasn't concerned about the "excessive noise from Trap Shooting" as mentioned by GolfNow AFTER check-out. For $8 for 18 with a cart I expected poor conditions. It was what I received. But when you have a course with less than mediocre conditions you better make up for it elsewhere... like friendliness of the staff. I found the staff to be as friendly and welcoming as a "junkyard dog". The conversation was short and terse with no direction given. I had never been there. I was partnered with two locals and I had no issue with the "PoP". IF MORE PEOPLE PLAYED READY GOLF... THERE WOULD NEVER BE "PoP" ISSUES.

I cannot comment on amenities.... I didn't have a chance to take a gander as I was rushed. There might be a range... there might not be. A TON of maintenance would serve Silver Dollar well. It was quite disappointing.

To sum up I wouldn't pay them $8 again. I have since learned that at 42 I might be losing my foot and my kidneys. I am depressed knowing that this might have been my second to last round of golf ever.

(Bear in minds... I do not hold high standards... or am difficult to please coming from eternal winter)

reasonable pricing, course was in good condition. Staff is very friendly.

The staff did the best they could. We had had almost 3 days of rain. Course was wet, however, they kept us moving and turned a disaster into a fair day. Nice job. Course has some very weird shots and set ups. Not a lot of trouble so you can score, but there is enough trouble to keep it interesting!

Course and conditions decent, and since it was a cool day, we had the course to ourselves. Conveniently located.

Very good value for the cost. The greens were in excellent shape, fast and true. The grass on the fairways was a little sparse and the tee boxes should be leveled. I found myself consistently teeing off with the ball above or below my feet..The speed of play was great, we were done in three hours and there was a foursome right behind us. I will play again.

The greens were in good shape other than a few, speed is good and have some very large and contoured slopes. THe tee boxes are in very poor shape as well as the rough and around most of the greens. A lot of bare lies and some roots. It is however quite a challenge from the blue tees as well as the red,having to position the ball in the right spot. WAter comes into to play on almost ever hole when you play the gator.It has 3 nine hole courses and though I didn't get to play the one 9 the gator and panther were a good test of golf.I would go back and try it again , just wish they would spend a little more money on the condition of the grass and lack of.I play a 2 handicap and tami plays a 12 and believe us it will challenge your game.......have fun and keep up the reviews it helps when your from out of town or country as we are......thanks

We drove over an hour to get to the course, but it was a pleasant surprise. The course was in great shape. Lots of wildlife. A real nice course for the average golfer. We'll definitely play it again! The course was quite busy but we played it in less than 3-1/2 hours.

On Monday December 16 ,two of my friends and I played that course and we really enjoyed.There is a lot of challenge,narrow fairways,a lot of water and wood.I will recommend the course to all of my golfers friends.
Thank you

Course was in great shape, although wet, it had rained the night before.
