Dusty's take

I found the layout some what confusing the first day I played, since there is no layout shown either on the course or on the cards. There are several holes where you do not see the green or any trouble. There is sand on the front and water, lots of water on the back with a few forced carry's. I found it enjoyable enough to play again two days later.

This course has some very interesting holes !

I haven't played here for about a year or so. It has come a long way as far as the conditions are concerned. It was in great shape the day I played.They reversed the 9's ..Much nicer this way.

A Very Nice Course to Play

The tees, fairways and greens were in very good shape. The staff, from pro shop to starter were friendly and responsive to questions. Yes I would return and bring a friend or two.

Best game in a long time !

Had a delightful time! Course is our favorite in Central Florida but weren't able to be there in a while. So glad we went back. Were not rushed - had a relaxed round which is so rare now days. Course not in perfect shape but very nice and greens were really good. The clubhouse is perfect and - wow - can't say enough about Renee at the bar! We will go out of our way and return as often as possible!

Getting Better All The Time

Greens are in good shape, I'd give them a great but they're a little slow and bumpy but will be awesome by summer I'm sure, fairways have come a long way, clubhouse is awesome, food is great. Will be playing this course throughout the summer.

There are no houses on this course which is awesome.

Best round EVER!

Having played this course a few time previously, I was anxious to get back and 'give it a go' again! This time I found the overall conditions better than average and the greens in excellent shape, albeit a tad slow -- maybe a 9 - 10. As such, it helped me to card a 74 -- my best round ever! Had it not been for a 'double' on the infamous 9th, I would have been in heaven! I find it's a course you have to "manage" if you want to score well. Otherwise you can find trouble, esp if you're too aggressive on some of your longer second shots (+ 170).

Best course in the Titusville area

After driving about a half a mile through a housing development that obviously fell through during the housing collapse, having never played here before, I was afraid that the course would be indicative of the cheap price. I was dead wrong. Yes they have spent lots of money on the clubhouse but they haven't forgotten about the course either! Out of six courses I've played in the area over the past few days, they have the nicest layout, practice area, clubhouse, pace of play and price of all of them. I will certainly be playing there again. Most likely today!

Nice new clubhouse…

Finally there is a real Clubhouse instead of the container they used to have. But that is about all what changed, except the hole no 1. is now no 10….. Path are still covered with sand and gravel. No service at the bag drop. The course is rather easy, some places wide opened. Tee boxes and fairways need some attention. Bunkers are just OK and the greens are rather slow. But even though, it is pleasant course to play, but nothing special to it. Staff is friendly but except the Beverage cart girl on course not seen much.

Overall, not a bad track and with a hot deal good value for the money.

Course has gone down hill in last 3 yrs

Management put all the money into fancy club house and have not kept course in good condition for three years. The layout is good and can be challenging. You never see a ranger hence, if you book between 8 to 11 AM the course is continually slow play.. The only reason I play there is their discounted seasonal rate card. I may not even renew that for Summer of 2016.

Needs more staff.

Course is a very nice layout. Greens were a little bumpy and in need of some attention. There was no ranger on the course so tee times were backed up 40 minutes. Took almost 5 hours to play. Staff was friendly and helpful - offered free range balls while we waited for tee time. Course plays tough but i think its fair.
