The Plantation Golf Club - Otter Creek Course
Rating Snapshot
About
The Plantation at Leesburg offers two championship courses, the Cranes Roost Course and the Otter Creek Course. The Otter Creek Course features an interesting layout that is wide open on the front nine, while the back nine is rife with towering trees. Situated on hilly terrain, the golf course features gently rolling fairways and the medium-sized greens have some slight undulations. As its name suggests, a creek flows through the golf course and comes into play on several holes throughout. The semi-private Plantation at Leesburg provides two excellent golf courses, but they also feature a practice facility and staff of golf professionals to help players of all skill levels.

Horrid Conditions
This course has defiantly seen better days, The site said they were doing routine maintinence but it was far from routine, the tee boxes were a dirt mound and the fairways were a mixture of dead diseased grass weeds and dirt.
The New Otter Creek
This course was destroyed just a little over 1-1/2 years ago by a shady at best management company. I quit playing here for well over a year. My first time back and I was absolutely amazed at the changes in the course. The greens were good to very good and some of the really difficult areas of the course were made more playable for the average golfer. The fairways that were once dirt are now full of grass and the wet spots have had drainage tile added to them.
I always loved this scenic course and am now very happy it's back to the shape it was many years ago. I can't thank the staff enough. GREAT DAY GOLFING
Getting Better by the day…
This course is really coming back. A bit more time needed but a huge improvement from last year.
A massive effort is being made.. I’ll be back..
WHAT HAPPEN TO OTTER CREEK AND CRANES ROAST AT PLANTATION
FIRST TIME IN 3 YEARS PLAYING HERE TODAY NO EVEN WORTH 4@). COURSE BAD SHAPE MOST GREENS BAD SHAPE FAIRWAYS HARD DRY REMINDED ME OF FOX HOLE IN NAM, USE TO BE FANTASTIC, NOT SURE WHO RUNNING EITHER COURSE NEED TON OF WORK. PLAYED IT MANT TIMES IN THE PAST GREAT LAY OUT 2 OR 3 YEARS AGO. NEEDS TON OF WORK TO BRING IT BACK TO NEAR PAR. HAD $20 DEAL GOLFGROUPER NOT SURE IF THEY CHECKED IT OUT FIRST BEFORE OFFER. AT LEAST 72 AND SUN THATS ABOUT THE BEST I CAN SAY. ALSO PAYED$2.80 FOR TAX. HOPEFULLY THEY WILL PAY ME TO COME BACK. HAPPY NEW YEAR
2 putt greens
The greens are in bad shape due to aeration. Hopefully, they will make a big difference later in the summer. Right now the greens are 2 putt and on to the next hole.
Greens are gone
The greens are gone no grass literally gone your putting on dirt many of the fairway are grass free also. A total waste of $41.00 the sister course Crain's Roost is closed because of the condition The Plantation should be too
Bad time of year
All the greens have been aeriated and need some time to recover. Course layout and pricing are always good reasons to play.
Otter Creek
the greens were in the worst condition I have ever seen. a trip to the driving range would have been better.. although they were just punched and sanded they were not put table and the cups hadn’t been changed in a few days. I think a notification of the condition of the course before the tee was made would have been good.
Otter Creek unplayable
Golf now put the song of the creek which was unplayable due to it being Holland time. The staff however kindly put us on the other calls. Which was good. We cannot review Otter Creek.
Needs work
I will first say the irrigation system did not appear to have been working. The only thing green was the green dye sprayed on the greens, not much grass. Restaurant was much better, although a little pricey. Would not recommend until water is done.
Must be the worst course in Florida!
Fairways patchy, greens in poor condition. Couldn’t putt on two because of the thick layer of dressing.
More bare lies on the fairways than grass!
Won’t play there again and won’t recommend it to anyone. Shame because in its current condition they’ll lose a lot of custom.
Bad conditions.
The worst conditions in Central Florida at any golf course, virtually unplayable!
Sad state
It looked like the irrigation system was not working, very dry. The only thing green about the greens was the dye that was sprayed on. There was almost no grass on the greens. Restaurant had good food albeit a little pricey. Will not go back until I see better reviews.
This is the worst condition for a golf course I have ever seen. Wouldn’t play it for free
