From tee to green the conditions were unacceptable. Maybe the time of year I hope but I wouldn’t recommend playing this course in January

Course was in horrible shape. Greens were terrible. They need to put more money into the course.

Good, not great

The course is challenging and was in somewhat rough shape. We noticed this especially on the fairways, and some of the greens. But the price was right, and the staff were exceptional. The Club House is beautiful too. Be prepared for lots of water hazards. These are fun if you're hitting well. Otherwise.... look out!

Nice Florida Course

It’s a little off the beaten path but fairly accessible from all compass points. A really well designed and challenging golf course, it must be played strategically by both short- and long-ball hitters. Florida’s natural coastal area landscape is on full display on every hole with bonus sightings of the State’s most notorious reptiles. Course facilities are modern and clean including the excellent food/beverage restaurant.

a bit tough for me

I find the front nine to be playable...the back nine is very difficult to score on...lots of obstacles, water and jungle conditions...almost like two different courses. It is worth checking out if you are in the area

A little worse than expected.

I have not been to this course in a few years. I can't say that it has improved much. The layout is nice but overall conditions were not great, but not so bad either for the price. The tee boxes were overseeded and were decent. The greens weren't so bad, but it would have been nice if the fairways were overseeded. Overall, the pace of play was not bad for a Sunday.

Had I known greens were sanded Heavily I wouldn’t have waisted my time. Staff should notify patrons prior to accepting payments. Also an $11.50 hot dog would be justified at Yankee Stadium but not so at a public course.
