Course review

Fairways have no grass, and the greens need some work. (Very bumpy.)The pro shop was rude and I just didn’t feel comfortable.

Fairways non existent

Tees and greens were overseeded and had grain and colour to them. Fairways were non existent. No colour, all brown and very little brown grass. Hit off alot of hard pan as a fairway.

Worst course in the Florida Panna

This course should cost that most $20 to play the fairways are nonexistent. They’re all dirt and sand. The greens are in good shape. The layout is good but save your money. Go play anywhere but here.

Bad course

We played here 2 years ago but did remember the course conditions being this bad. You cannot fine any grass on the fairways. We actually used a tee after hitting off of sand/dirt for 9 holes. The layout and views are ok but I can say I have never played on a course that had no grass on the fairways. Don’t waste your money.

This will never be a $65 course. I will say that the tee boxes are the best I’ve seen them the last 4 years. The greens were better but bumpy. Fairways weren’t good.

Needs a lot of TLC

The staff is very friendly but the course needs a lot of attention and investment to make it a quality course. The layout is great.

Overpriced for what it is

The course in its own is okay nothing spectacular but a mid mid level community golf course unfortunately is priced at the same level as most of the local courses that it doesn’t really compare too. Pro shop has practically nothing in it and for 65 a round your better off taking your money elsewhere to a nicer course and amenities. If this was priced more in the 25-30 dollar range would be a hidden gem as it is minimally played and you can’t beat the ability to get a full round of 18 in within 3 hours and no real groups to hold you up.

Fairways in Tough Shape

Course layout wasnt bad except for one hole. The fairways were in tough shape. Grass was sparse and hitting off hard sandy surface much of the time. Fees quite reasonable though.

Great Course, Great Onion Rings

I’m visiting from Chicago. I found this place. I loved it. It’s golf, in Florida, in December. I’m not picky. Play this course. When you are done, go inside, go to the bar inside and see deer the onion rings. No lie. Incredible.
