RedTail Golf Club

This course has great potential but unfortunately they have let it fade into obscurity. Tee boxes are mostly sand. You can’t tell the difference between the rough and the fairway, even if there is a fairway. Some of the greens are really bad with a disease of some sort. Needs a ton of loving care to be playable.

We played today and thoroughly enjoyed it because we know what conditions are and it was very easy on the eyes. Obviously a great conditioned course in early 2000s. Just pick, clean, and place. Hit putts firm, and enjoy…or cough up $150 plus elsewhere. Easy 50 minute drive up 429 Toll from Disney area.

Some spectacular finishing holes around a huge swamp. Saw huge alligators.

Will definitely go back.

They put down some weed-killer & grass supplement today, so hopefully that will help dispose of the patches of a leafy lettuce in most greens. Tee boxes need grass, and sand bunkers need maintenance, but layout is fun & challenging. I fell off the Bogie Train, even made Birdie #9, but DbleBogie #10 (first of 3 on back9).......and back to my usual mid-80s score. I luv holes 14-17 around the lake/bowl, not that my scores indicate such. I'm hopin' RedTail comes back into form, but we can still have fun at the less expensive rates. Thanx to GNs Hot Deals, I'll be back again in a few months.

Is the course in great shape? No

Is it value priced? Yes

Greens: playable, but issues with sanded areas & brussel sprout leaves (maybe Winter Rye that needs treatment, cut close & rolled to prevent bumpy rolls).

Pace-of-play (10am start on a sunny, but chilly morning) was awesome, no wait, no push! 18holes in little over 3hrs. Most tee-boxes have no grass, but you put a peg in the sand and hit the golfing ball. Fairways result in tight lies, sand bunkers are not maintained well, and greens are far from perfect.. Recent cold spell thru Central Fla has affected most courses, and RedTail is minimally staffed/budgeted, which translates into lesser Greens Fees. The layout is outstanding (although I don't know how many times it will take me to par #18), nice Pro & cart-gal, but nothing for clubhouse amenities. At any rate, I'd rather get the GN Hor Deal Special, join a nice fellow from Canada, hit mulligans & converse ..........than pay 5x more just to say I played OCN or Disney.. Please, my wish is to bring back RedTail to what it was 10yrs ago, so I keep coming back.

Not worth it. I’d play it for $10 max. Good layout but they gave up trying to maintain the course. Dirt/sand areas all over the course.

What can be said about no grass on the tee boxes, very little grass on the fairways, bunkers with sand hard as concrete and the greens with some kind of fungus growing that prevents the ball from rolling straight; what can be said TERRIBLE. This course should pay the players for playing here. This course has gone down the ski slope in the last few weeks. Hope they find a greens keeper that knows how to put a course together.

Somed blame to the cold weather, but other courses not as bad.

Conditions are terrible out there. Mostly hitting off dirt or dead, flattened grass. Bunkers were hard and tee boxes were terrible. Not much good to say about it. The greens were OK for the most part except small patches of grass coming up interfered with put lines.

I have always loved the layout. The greens are a good pace. Semi fast. But there is an invasive grass that makes putting an adventure. The bunkers need more sand too.

Course is nothing but frozen weeds. Tee boxes dirt. Fairways pure weeds. Definitely not worth 35 bucks. 20 bucks maybe. Pitiful..

Fun course, many gullies that come into play. They are OK this time of year, but will be a problem when the grow in. Often no real landing areas in front of green. (1,18)

I haven’t played this course in six months or so, but it has improved. It used to be an excellent course and charged a premium price, but has gone downhill over the years. The tee boxes and greens have weeds and bare spots, but you’re paying 65% of other courses. It’s a good value to practice your skills and get your yardages.

All the tee boxes were in horrible condition. Most of the greens were in bad shape

Course is in terrible shape. Poor condition everywhere.

Greens were fast which was fine but seriously needs some work done on the whole course.

Layout is good though.
