Gr8sct

Let's start with the fairways-absolutely TERRIBLE! Front nine was so bad that I thought i'd jarred my fillings loose. Not to mention the only grass, if you want to call it were bits of sprigs of some kind of growth through out. The back nine was marginally better but not much. Now the greens - grass was practically non-existent and what was there was a poor excuse to call them "greens". As far as the cartpaths(??) they also were rough and bumpy like they were shelled by mortars. We've been coming here for 9 years now and while the course I would say was average it has digressed to sadly say pathetic.$$ and a lot of hard work is needed to bring this place, which used to be a reasonable and fun place to play, back to playing condition. Until then won't be returning. Don't waste your money.

nice layout . course conditions poor.

I'm sure this was a beautiful course at one time.

greens and fairways in disrepair.

clubhouse and restaurant are very nice, it's a shame the golf isn't at the same standard.

just needs some $$ and tkc to bring it back.

Great layout

Love the layout. Course has been in a lot better shape. Fairways were in tough shape. Greens were okay except for a few bad spots. Could have been cut a bit lower. Pace of play was great. Even looking for a few wayward shots, we finished in four hours.

Always a Great Day at Indian River

From Laurie in the Pro Shop to Fritz at the cart barn, we always enjoy their courtesy and assistance. The ONLY negative (and not a reflection on the club) but we had a foul-mouther jerk from Pittsburg who invited himself to join us. That made an otherwise pleasant day a complete disaster. That fool needs to go back to Pittsburg and stay there.

Fun Day of Golf!

The course is challenging and improving in its condition.

.Lori in the pro shop was great along with cart area staff Cam and his cohort.

Will likely be back in a few weeks.
