Liked all the natural spaces

Course condition not the greatest. Played Creek and Oak. Oak was the better of the two.

Liked the natural spaces between holes.

Didn’t like the enter/exit system for each hole but understand what’s being attempted.

Good Day on the Course

Played the course on a Friday afternoon. Needed to play in 4 hours to finished in daylight. Pace was slow - they said a group making the turn a few groups in front of us stopped for food at the turn and backed everyone up by 20 minutes so we waited on pretty much every shot and finished in the dark. Other than that we enjoyed the course and had a good time. Good value this time of the year. Friendly staff including cart girl!

Love this place, but Sslllooowwww

The practice facilities are great, pro shop is well stocked, staff is friendly, and the course is in good shape and is playable, yet challenging. Lots of tee choices. My only gripe is the pace of play (5 hours), and that we never saw a ranger pushing the groups along.

We usually play Heron Creek several times each winter. I will be back, but I’ll get a morning tee time.

Nice Course

Course is in very good shape. Bunkered and elevated greens make this a challenging course.

Lots of forced carries. The wind didn't help either. But is was a fun day.

Thanks

Great course and practice areas

One of my favorite courses in SWFL. In very good condition, challenging semi-fast greens, wonderful layout. Only disappoint was being pushed on pace by the Marshalls. 4hrs and 17 minutes to complete the round which I think is reasonable considering that our foursome included a female beginner, plus it's and average cart ride of about a minute between holes.
