Nice course

Enjoyed playing the course. Ended up as a two some in between all foursomes. Tee off was 1:10 pm and just finished at sunset after 4 1/2 hrs. Nice practice facility and friendly staff.

Lovely course

Enjoy the course and will likely play there again in the future.

Our party consisted of two proficient players and two intermediate players so we played a scramble to keep a good pace. The Ranger reported that we were slow by 30 minutes early into the back 9 and the members behind us complained. I don’t know how we could have played faster and feel the complaint was unnecessary. It was also an unpleasant ending to an otherwise nice day even in spite of the rain.

Nice course

Very nice course, but quite expensive though.

Would be nice to have discounts for North Port residents.

Just something to think about.

Hopefully prices go down in the summer.

Love the layout and and all the wildlife you see.

WARNING VERY SLOW GREENS

The golf course was soaking wet, and the greens were so slow as to be nearly unputtable. That’s two rounds over several weeks that the greens speed was unacceptably slow.
