Indian River Preserve Golf Club

Played alone for the first time today. The first year on my Mother’s birthday that she hasn’t been here on earth with us. It was nice to be alone on the course with my thoughts on this day.

Actually enjoyed playing alone played really quickly with no one in front of me to wait on and no one to wait for playing with me. Had a great time!

The front nine was ruined for my son and I because of a slow playing group of three or four short hitters in front of us. We can occasionally hit our drivers 280-300 so we were waiting for them to hit twice at least. I even stopped hitting driver and started hitting three wood. Problem was the group behind us started hitting into us while we were waiting for the group in front of us to clear out of the way. So, when they were on nine we skipped to ten and had no one in front of us and no one behind us. The back nine was great as we didn’t see anyone until we caught the group in front of us on 16 when they forgot a wedge on the green and we met them halfway to return it. So, we had a great time even though we didn’t play great golf.

Great layout and staff. Course needs work, fairways and some of the greens have too many bare spots.

The IRP continues to make progress. The greens are almost entirely patched and are smooth and quick. The fairways continue to improve and for the most part are playable. The $8 lunch with range balls is a great deal. The lunch at the beautiful clubhouse is wonderful. The hamburger is so tasty and fresh veggies that top it are a treat.

I was pleasantly surprised by the improvement in conditions at IRP. The range ball lunch deal is great with another spectacular lunch. I had a delicious Cuban and Fries. The course bunkers were beautifully maintained with a lot of work going into them. The patching done on the greens continued to make the surface very putt able. The staff is always friendly and polite.. A great deal on golf now
