Alaqua Country Club

Course was in overall good shape. Had aerated awhile ago and greens were coming back in pretty nicely. Couple of greens had large areas they had lost and had been sodded. Tees and fairways were excellent overall though.
Staff was friendly, especially the starter. The kid in the clubhouse gave us bad info on the range. Said there wasn't one anymore? When we made the turn, lo and behold there it was just off 10 fairway? If its for members only, fine, just tell people that....don't tell them there isn't one.
Construction going on around clubhouse, so 10 &18 are a shell of their former selves and 18 has a temp green.

Beautiful challenging course with water on almost every hole. Abundance of wildlife to be seen here as well.

I thought the course was tight and challenging, but fun. The only downside is that they are building some homes right in the center of the course, so #10 is cut in half and #18 is shortened. There is not mention of this on the website, but it would explain the cheaper prices. Once the construction is done, I would consider this to be a 5-star course.

This course reminded me of some of the courses I played growing up. Enjoyed the rustic feel of a wooded course and the wild animals that watched as I played though. While the course is under some major maintenance the course is in very good condition. I look forward to going back for another round.

So very sorry to see this great course reach such a bad condition. This has always been a great place to play but it is evident the owners have tried to take short cut and try to save money. The tees were even in bad condition...

Construction around hole 10 has the tee box moved up. Making the turn gets a bit confusing you have to go way around or drive on the street for a block or so. A few of the greens were a bit rough needing some attention. All in all a nice course with plenty of deer, wild turkey, etc.

So, I have played Alaqua before the construction started and the only thing different now is the #10 par 5 is now a par 4. there is some noise to contend with but if you play golf to play and not for asthetics then you should do fine. The course was tough as it can be for a shorter track, but fun, beautiful and well groomed. The greens had air holes, typical maintenance this time of year, so putting was difficult sometimes. Give yourself a couple strokes and go play this one cause for the price it is worth it, even with construction.

The course had just been aerated so the greens were quite sandy.However when you play along side deer,turkeys,hawks and gators you tend to have a great time. I have played this course before and will play it again. The layout is great and not to many people on the course.

Apart from losing the par 5 10th (now par 3, 210 yards) due to construction by the driving range (gone too) apart from that course is fine. Oh now you don't have the luxury of stopping for a break at the club house between 9"s any more due to construction.

The range and part of the first hole are currently under construction but that didn't really bother me at all. When the construction is complete the prices will probably go up significantly so take advantage of the cheap greens fee while its there. Fun and challenging layout and the fairways were beautifully maintained. Greens were just getting over being aerified but were still rolling true and can only be getting better.

Course was wet but still in great condition.
Lots of construction going on makes restroom facilities difficult. bathroom code didn't work :-( hole one is shortened but still okay.

I'm a huge fan of this course layout. Lots of water without being too penal, lots of wildlife, greens and fairways all in good shape. Only detractors were the pace of play, we waited on every shot, tee to green, and the range and 1st holes were closed due to construction, I wish this had been on their site so I wouldn't have arrived so early.

Set amongst one of the most upscale housing developments of central Floirda, the course is well maintained, beuatiful and demanding. Lots of water and elevated tees. The staff is friendly and helpful. A tremendous number of docile wild critters, incluing alligators, deer an turkey are seen on nearly every hole.

Course was way better than i though it would be by reading other reviews. Beautiful course, and alot of fun to play, with all the water
and narrow fairways. It was in excellent condition and the construction didn't bother me a bit. I look forward playing it again.

Nicest course I've played in Orlando. I would recommend highly

Alaqua is an enjoyable trip through a beautifully landscaped community of massive villas. Conditions except where construction is going on are very very good - greens are well maintained (#6 is due to be repalced and needs it) but not at all fast when I played. Many holes involve forced carries over water (and gators) so pick the right tees or be prepared to lay up from time to time. Most holes ask for some kind of shape from the tee, and a few have very limited landing areas. 13 is an island green which is 177 from the back but there are other holes just as tough. I'd play it again with pleasure. Golfnow price is an excellent value.

WONDERFUL COURSE. ONE OF FLORIDA'S BEST. VERY FRIENDLY STAFF, GREAT LAYOUT, CHALLENGING AND FAIR, A MUST PLAY BEFORE IT GOES 100% PRIVATE AGAIN.

great golf course the staff is very friendly one of the best in this area. I M looking to play some rounds with my friends.

I played this course with a teenager, 2 experienced golfers and a 70 year old senior. The course has a nice design with lots of water. Challenging for good golfers and could be frustrating for non-experienced golfers. Greens were in good shape however fairways and rough need attention.
