Indian River Preserve- good course

Good overall course. Back 9 harder than front. Many holes with water, and some hidden if you hit driver off the tee far. Was very windy both times I’ve played making it much harder to focus. Fairways were okay but som dry grass and weedy spots. Greens were ok but some had some minor issue and are fast. Tee boxes a bit chewed up on most. Pace of play was quite slow the first I played but better the second. Clubhouse is small but staff friendly. Restaurant was good and staff friendly. Lunch options decent. Overall good course and challenging especially the holes hitting over water which are quite a few.

Good layout and fair yet challenging course

Good course for the value spent (under $45w/tax and fees) Pace was a bit slow the first nine but a foursome Let us pass by which helped. Tee boxes were ok, fairways decent, greens were pretty good and fast. Look out for water in unknown spots on back 9 as we did not have a GPS app to follow. Would play again. Club house was good too. And good deal for $6 for range balls and lunch. Overall, would recommend to play.

Great condition

The course was very challenging but fun. Will definitely play there again. The only problem was they let a single out behind us so we let him play through then the whole back nine was tied up. I think they need to pair off singles as this is a very busy time of the year.

Indian River

A return course as everything about this course is good. Don't let the homes in this GC community fool you. Once you leave the ClubHouse, you have a very scenic and private layout. Don't get distracted from it as the course will challenge you . Wide fairways and large greens lends to making it a ladies friendly course. The restaurant and their daily specials gives a nice finishing touch .

Rangers needed!

First time playing course, pro shop staff very friendly and helpful. Was playing as a single, started off well. Caught up to a foursome of senior’s about hole 4. They Obviously don’t know golf etiquette to let faster players go through. They were playing the senior tees, took all four to try and find a golf ball 75 yards down in the rough while I’m waiting on the tee had planned on playing 18 holes but by the time I finish nine holes it was almost 3 hours. Where are the Rangers!

The course itself was in good shape and I would like to play all 18 holes if pace of play is acceptable.

Played the day after Thanksgiving. The course was very busy but we were still able to play 18 holes in 4 hours. Layout is great course conditions were pretty good and the greens were in excellent shape. I have played the course in all seasons and conditions and would recommend the course to anyone looking for a good course at a great value.

It's in great shape!

A few courses near hear have gone really downhill recently but not this one. They're putting in work to keep it nice! I love the layout and had no complaints about the condition.

Lots of potential

I don’t know if they just built this course or if they are redoing it, but it was in fairly good shape for the shape that it’s in. They have plenty of sod and fresh sand ready to be installed or is being installed. Greens were in good shape. Once everything fills in, this will definitely be one of the nicer courses in the area. Don’t pay attention to anyone that is whining about this or that and nitpicking, it’s a fun course and layout. The staff was extremely friendly.

Fun course - cool and windy round

$36 GolfNow reservation - good value course

Interesting track - tee boxes pretty chewed up in spots - greens challenging - left many approach shots above the hole since it was the first time I played it

Take extra balls- if it goes into the woods it’s gone

Easy to get lost - signage on the last turn could be better - the course is way back in the sub

I’d play it again
