Indian River Preserve Golf Club

For a course in a community this fell short of our expectations, although the club house was beautiful and the course layout was interesting the course conditions were poor (dry unkept fairways, slow greens, dirt cart paths. No wildlife to see. We won’t be coming back at any rate.

(Played 1/2/21 but form won’t submit?)

Some open fairways, some tight, some blind shots...a little bit of everything here. Challenging layout. Well maintained. Highly recommend the restaurant for after-round food...very good stuff.

The course is interesting and somewhat difficult, but not in great shape. There is a significant amount of home construction all around the course - noise is an issue.

Based on the amount of play today it seems unlikely that there is a consistent effort being made towards social distancing and mask were not present by some staff members. A lack of available carts required random golfers to double up - first course in FL that I have seen this and was unexpected.

The starter gave some "regulars" preferential treatment with a unscheduled tee time and we had a twosome hitting into our foursome (two foursomes in front of us).

Hoping this was just a bad day at Indian River Preserve.

I like this course, but was very disappointed in the dry conditions. Needs serious watering. All the fairways are bone dry. Greens aren’t too bad, running true. Pace was slow because of holiday tourists.

Great layout and amenities, looks like they’re getting the condition improvements underway. Ask for the $6 special: bucket of balls and lunch at the turn. Restaurant was great. Good pace of play, fun challenging course, if they can get the fairways in better shape it’ll be. 5 star. Will be back.

pretty sure the previous review was written by this courses owner...because Indian River Preserve formerly Walkabout ain’t nothin good to talk about...abominable conditions that even Obama would diss... no self respecting goat would even venture onto this course cause there ain’t no grass in the fairways other than crab to sustain ole billy.... greens very

“scratchy” slow with lotsa patches of crab grass as well....save your time and money and pass this

The course is in excellent shape. Front nine great for long ball hitters and back nine provides tight and challenging layout.

Love this place. Have been a customer since 2007.

Love this course but it has taken some hits regarding course condition. But, they have done a lot to improve it and if they continue, it would be a top five in central Florida.

Greens were bumpy and very slow. Fairways were also very bumpy. We were behind a threesome that took forever on every green and had a full hole open in front of them the whole time. When we asked to play through they said no. No ranger on the course at all. This place used to have nice greens, but the have let them go to pot. Very thin grass on them and kind of sandy.

Course is a little wet, but still playable. Overall good, enjoyed the lunch also !! When course dries out, should be excellent!!

most of the front nine was just so-so, but starting at #9 for the rest of the golf course the holes were very difficult but awesome. I would definitely play this course again. #13 & 15 are REALLY difficult. Especially 13. wow. There was nobody out there and my friend and I played it twice and triple bogeyed it both times. And I'm a 12 handicap.

The coarse is a fun track to play. But everything is a little wet and soggy due to all.of.the rain

The staff is friendly and the club house is nice. For the price , it's worth the time to drive over

My first time playing this course, I probably won't play again. I played following aeration and a week of rainy weather, so conditions were poor. Cart paths are all dirt which made for a very bumpy ride with lots of ruts. Many areas don't drain well so standing water was a problem. Greens were OK, but aeration made for bumpy putts. Sand traps are filled with some kind of dirt, not sand, which compacts even more after rain. I enjoyed the variety and character of the layout.

This course seems like it is either not finished or it is deteriorating. Course lay out is challenging. But no map of the holes on the scorecard or on the yardage signs. So sometimes you have to guess where the fairway is. The driving range is just an under construction lot. Some of the bunkers are eroding. And there is standing water in some of the fairways and some of the bunkers. Looks like they are trying to build a community around an 85% complete golf course.
