Amazing course - terrible staff

The course was amazing. It was a really nice course and we drove over an hour to play there. On the second hole the staff was there to tell us that we were too far behind and we needed to pick up our pace, even though we were waiting on the people in front of us to play. Every other hole they were there to harass us and tell us how slow we were. It literally ruined our whole game of golf. I don’t even know why we paid to play there. It was miserable. We were waiting on the people in front of us the entire time. And then he told us to skip the first hole on the back line to catch up. When we did that, we sat in line with two other groups of people waiting to play. They were obviously frustrated and told the staff. When the staff came to us, they had a terrible attitude and were literally yelling at us before they even got to us. By the time we actually got to the tee station on that hole, they had stacked two twosomes behind us that were waiting and frustrated. Complete mismanagement of the course. I play a lot of of golf for business and this place was the worst.

Never ever skip a hole unless you are the problem and reading your post you guys weren't the problem! If they are willing to give you a full refund for skipping the hole which they wont!! You paid for 18 holes not 17! I absolutely love this course but have ran into the same problem in the past. They once told our group to go and hit from the 150 marker on the OAKS #5. I laughed at him told him we paid for the full 18 and we would not tee off from the 150. I was so mad I actually drove the green and then told the ranger if he could go to the green and mark that for me. We didn't see him the rest of the round. I understand they have a job to do but you have to go to the members who are the ones that screw up the pace of play looking for there balls, but they would never tell them to speed it up. I highly recommend giving the course another try because its that great of a course.

Excellent Experience

Course was in great condition. Amazing how much they have put into the landscaping around tee boxes and greens. Course was unique - relatively flat by that’s FL. Rangers were the most engaging I have seen at a semi-private course.

First time at Heron Creek

Staff was super nice and considerate. Rangers kept the players moving. Very nice practice facilities, get there early to make use ofd them. Course is a little soggy, but the greens were really well kept. We had a lot of fun playing with a variety of skill levels in the group.
