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.

I played a round on my Birthday and I didn't like being pushed along by members of the course. Or they were riding our tail. And every hole we had to wait for groups in front of us getting off the green. I'm a pace player and there was no pace at all today.

Still a Hidden Gem

When I first started playing HCGC in 2017 I thought the place was a hidden gem and if I ever moved to Florida, that would be a place to go. 8yrs later, I live right down the road from Herron Creek and I still love it today. The practice facility is hands down one of the best in the region. The course is challenging from tee to green, you can't just blow past all the hazards and play pitch and putt. It's a shot makers course and a very pretty ride.

5 hours plus!

Course in decent shape, staff very friendly...pace was very slow.

Front nine took 2 hrs and 40 minutes.

Beginning at hole #4, had to wait at every hole, with the group behind us sometimes waiting with us.

We decided to quit after the front nine due to the slow play, and not wanting to spend another 3 hrs on the course.
