Duran Golf Club - Championship Course

Coming out of the dry season, the course is in pretty good shape. The fairways are plush and greens rolled true. The driving range is closed for the next month but we were aware of it before reserving a tee time. Our tee time was late in the morning before noon. The pace of play was a little slow today and that is unusual. However, the weather was great so we did not mind. The beverage cart came by twice on the front nine and twice on the back nine. The kitchen was closed by the time we were done but the bar was open. All the staff were friendly and courteous. I recommend playing the course.

We are a threesome of buddies who play a couple of times a week. We play all the public courses in our area and Duran has the best overall conditions of the courses we play.

Staff is great and very friendly and helpful.

The course can get crowded in the winter but the crowds thin out a little once the snowbirds leave.

Challenging for us (10-12 handicappers) but a fun course to play,

One of my favorite courses to play. I wish the golfcarts had GPS like most other courses of this caliber. Also, we were grouped with a couple of other players at the same time, but wish we would have been able to split up. The other 2 had a very slow pace and probably added 45 minutes to an hour to finish the round. Great and challenging course.

Very nice course. All of the staff were really nice

There were two things I really disliked about this course. First they allow walkers during the day. They sent out a walking three some and then a walking single, not a good idea on a holiday weekend

Secondly, the carts paths are very far from the green. I didn't mind it but my playing partner was older and had a hard time making the long walks.

These two issues made for not such a fun day

Nice course. Green and fairways are well groomed. But the play was slow. Too many slow golfers slowed the entire 18 holes

Course was in great condition. Great value for the money through golfnow. Be prepared. I was informed they will be aerating soon.

Course conditions were really good. The greens were in very good conditions as well. Maybe a "tad" slower than the courses I normally play in metro Atlanta, but still really nice. Fairways were well groomed and cut very consistent.

Wife and I played and enjoyed being partnered to meet other golfers and share course experiences. Conditions were very good with 1 hole exception on back nine where it looks like green has two seeds and had to putter across different grains. Love the variety of tee boxes. Staff was excellent.

I haven’t played here in 6 months. I reminded myself why I don’t play here anymore. No Marshall. Tee times were 8 minutes behind. 5 + hour round. Hit and wait 10 minutes every shot. Greens were slow. Fairways and teeboxes were okay. Lots of bald spots no grass. Not worth $60. It’s a $30 course at best. I won’t be back again.

Duran is one of my favorite places to play in Viera. Awesome course that challenges you but yet rewards you for your play.

Only thing I think needs work is the 12th green. It looks like broccoli, you can't putt on it. The green needs to be reworked so you can actually play.

This is a fine course. I downgraded conditioning due to the ongoing drought, really not their fault, but it was very dry and a lot of hardpan lies. Greens were very good to excellent. Playing with a regular, I learned that they host tournaments and that explains some of the design decisions in terms of roll-offs, bunker lip, banking on hazards, etc. Still, a lot of fun and I recommend being straight off the tee.

Played course 3x in last 2 weeks. Each time pace of play was fantastic. Although the three 3sums I paired w complained about the condutiins...they were retired Floridians and are used to how course condutiins were in 2015. Course is on the cusp of being a ill pricey, but still worth it You will save money on balls bc there is plenty of fairway to spray em ariund!

Course was a bit dry but that was mostly due to the current drought. All together a great course.
