Fun course or the price but tee boxes need serious help
I liked the layout of the course, challenging and fun. However the teee boxes was in terrible shape. I'm guessing the lack of rain in May is what caused their current condition and they haven't recovered yet. I would play this course again but the tee boxes need serious help.
CONDITIONS WARRANT 1/2 PRICE
I heard this course has recently changed management groups and probably in the nick of time. Tee boxes were void of grass but have plenty of weeds. Fairways have so many weeds my group elected to play lift, clean and place from weeds. Greens were not rolled and were fuzzy and super slow. Restaurant not open until lunch time. No refreshment cart on course. No starter. No ranger. No cart boy. General course conditions warrant 1/2 price greens fee until the management can take care of problems. $39 plus tax = too much under present circumstances.
Morning 9
Nice course close to my house. Everyone on the staff is great! Always a good conversation and very helpful. The course seems a bit tricky to me... You see this nice big fairway next thing your in the water?! lol Some challenging holes over trees and some well thought out landscaping. When I played they are in the middle of a company change and course was bit rough but it sounds like they will have it it good shape again.
Good value, not well maintained
Greens were very slow and hadn’t been cut in a while. There were a lot of bare spots in the fairway. The layout is a bit tight but nice. Good course for the money, but the maintenance staff needs some work.
Great course. They need some rain
$35 for 18 holes, balls and lunch. I really like the course layout. They’re building houses on several holes. A few tee boxes were rough because they’re lacking rain. However most of the course and the greens were in great condition.
The tees barely had any grass on them throughout the course. Traps were not raked and rock hard. Greens were recently aerated and grass not cut. All my prior visits the course was great condition. Disappointing round
The tee boxes need a lot of work they are mostly weeds and sand, the greens are in good shape, and so are most of the fairways, the staff is very friendly and the food in the restaurant is very good, I will be back.
All tees had very little grass, many areas around the greens
Needed work. The sand traps looked like they were not raked in days. The greens needed cutting, they were extremely slow. Fairways were good. It appears that money is an issue based on conditions, no starter, and no Marshalls.

Good course
I think this course has one of the best design / layouts anywhere. A few patchy spots in the fairways but no big deal, just move your ball a couple feet. Greens run medium speed and are very fun to putt. The tee boxes are in below average condition. The guy in the pro shop told me they over seeded them with rye in the fall but due to the lack of rain in recent months they haven't taken root and filled in. Very fair but challenging course.
Just Another Cow Pasture
It's a shame when locals try to prop up their local course without any clue about the real world. Sorry about your home values. The course is a cow pasture with ponds converted to a golf course.
Tee Boxes - HORRIBLE
Fairways - Weed Filled
Bunkers - Washed Out
Cart Paths - Dirt
The good news is the greens and clubhouse are nice.
Also, the locals / members are clueless. Just because I don't play golf as well as you, doesn't give you the right to disregard common courtesy. If I'm 15 feet away from the hole and you're 5 feet away, I putt first.
Could be a great course
Greens are in fairly good shape, tee boxes are being refurbished so teeing off on dirt every hole. Fairways are ok with some bare spots.
Biggest complaint is they seem to allow anyone on the course as walk ups. checked the tee times before booking and there were 4 in front of and behind the one I chose that morning. We had to tee off late because there was a line of groups waiting to go but the tee times still showed open on the app. Made for a very long day with eight groups all playing and waiting on most holes.
The course has been better.
I have played this course since it first opened. The layout is challenging and you can pick your poison regarding it's difficulty. But the greens are spotty, bunkers are dirt and the tee boxes are in need of a resod. I understand that it is a challenge to keep a public course profitable. But currently Indian River was barely worth the green fees that I paid. The staff was nice.
Nice layout, needs a little work
I really enjoyed the natural layout. The tee boxes had no grass, but I hope it’s coming back. The fairways and greens were much nicer than people posted a few weeks ago.
Course conditions need work.
Played here 6 years ago and felt the same way. Thought I heard the conditions had improved but that was not the case. Almost every tee box was dirt. Driving range looks like a cow pasture. Clubhouse is beautiful - too bad the course does not match. The layout has potential. The $35 greens fees (afternoon play) should be more like $20. Our cart died on the FIRST hole. Will not return.
