Great Golfing!

It has been a while since my last round of 18 at the Indian River. Serious upgrades to fairways and greens made it a lovely golfing. Good weather made it even more fun. My Tee time was around noon. The best time to play. There was zero wait at every hole to my surprise. Some greens have few spots in need of greening. I gladly recommend the course.

Tough play

Course played difficult. Fairways in good shape, some wet areas. Tee boxes need work, many greens had barren areas. Several holes have limited landing areas if you miss the green. Rough was punitive. Restaurant good, staff friendly, good lunch + range balls deal.

Causal Play

For the price, it’s not going to upset you. If you hit from further back than the whites and you will have much better tee boxes.

Good value

Had a very enjoyable round. There were no other players 4 holes in front or behind us. Fairways and greens were good, not excellent. But hey, what do you expect for $43 with lunch?

Getting better

This course used to be in excellent shape but went downhill last year. It is getting better but still has room for improvement. The greens were slow but weed free and rolled true. The fairways are coming back but the tee boxes are poor. still a good deal compared to nearby courses

Pleasant Round BVeating the Weather

Started my round about 0920 and caught up to a twosome on the 10th hole about 1030. Fairways were lush and rough was lose your pall long. Some tee boxes need maintenance but with the exception of some wetness from the daily downpours we were getting the course played OK. Finished the round about 1230 and pulled out of the parking lot just as the thunder, lightning and rain got serious.
