RedTail Golf Club

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.

The course is improving—albeit gradually. A friend and I played this course frequently when it was newer and in much better condition, and the layout has always been exceptional. Unfortunately, over the years, the property fell into significant disrepair. Given its past condition, it is easy to understand the criticism it has received. At its lowest point, the course struggled across nearly all areas: tee boxes were in poor shape, greens were diseased and inadequately maintained, and fairways were inconsistent and deteriorated.

Fast forward to today, and there are clear signs of positive change. The staff was friendly, transparent, and candid about the course’s previous condition and the challenges it had faced. More importantly, they conveyed that meaningful efforts are underway to restore the course. Unlike some other local facilities, such as Timucuan, there is a genuine sense that management is committed to long-term improvement rather than cosmetic fixes.

During our round, the progress was evident, though uneven. Tee boxes remain in rough condition and require significant attention. Fairways varied from hole to hole, with some areas showing improvement and others still lagging behind. The greens, however, have improved considerably. While not yet top-tier, they are markedly better than in the past—mostly healthy, largely green, and rolling true, despite a few remaining diseased patches.

Notably, for the first time in years, we observed multiple grounds crew members actively working throughout the course, which was encouraging. The presence of a beverage cart was also a welcome addition and something we do not recall from previous visits.

This course has the potential to be among the best in Central Florida. With consistent irrigation, aggressive reseeding, and—most critically—serious investment in rebuilding the tee boxes and maintaining the greens, it can continue its upward trajectory and work toward regaining its former reputation.

We will be back.

Course is not worth the cheap price. Everything needs a lot of work. Played on golf trip and worst course I played all year by far. For the guy that played 3 days ago and left a great review, the public relies on good info

Most of the greens are good, easily the best feature of the course. Fairway turf is thin and weedy. Rough is all weeds but cut tight.

Work apparent in clearing out brush. Though the workers I witnessed this day werent going to break any records.

No legitimate golfer should be giving this course 4s or 5s.

The price point is below other courses in the area.

Doubt that this course has the revenue stream to raise its own bar....it would take massive labor, chemical and water costs from where it is.

No apparent overseed for prime season

Good for a quick cheap round but keep expectations down.

Redtail has always been one of my favorites in the past , they went through some hardships but she is back and beautiful . Obviously she is still not all the way to her old self being that all the courses near by took a hit But the greens are rolling beautifully and the fairways are looking great . Make sure to bring some extra balls for this challenging but fun course . The staff is always great , and treat my 14 year old son and I like family ! All day play rate ! And don’t forget to grab some food at the restaurant the cook is always hooking me up with a chicken Caesar wrap . But their burgers are bangin ! Shoot I sound like I work here lol I promise you I don’t .. go see for yourself !

This is an overall great golf experience for the money. Great staff and never a rushed time. Great elevation and mix of holes. Not perfect but definitely worth it.

playable again, one of the best layouts in central florida. greens are solid, rest of course needs work but she's coming back.

Seen better days for sure. With the exception of a few holes on the back nine the course has pretty much gone fallow. Feel bad for the homeowners that invested around it, can only hope they turn it around as the clubhouse and facilities are nice.

Course is getting better. Greens are good. Fairways need work. Tee boxes need work. Bunkers are not consistent .

About 5 months ago I thought the course would be shut down as it was in such bad condition. I tried it again and it’s making an improvement specifically in the greens. Not much grass in the fairways. Too bad, as it once use to be a beautiful course.

Played there about 1.5 years ago and I must say that course conditions have improved immensely. The greens and fairview are in way better shape. I will go back to play more often now and I’m happy to see the improvements. There is more work to be done but hats off to the new management that’s making this possible
