Briar Bay Golf Course

No matter how you advertise, they always charge 20$… wasting time try to explain that we book through this app.. is 20 dollars or not play.

The course is only a 9-holer but, you'll have to think your way around it or you'll find yourself in the water or off the course. You can use your driver but you don't need it. It's a pleasant challenge for any golfer.

Went to briar bay for its location, for years I have been coming here and it’s become more and more frustrating, they ignore tee times, there’s no organization when it comes to scheduling times and amount of players, they have a golf cart shortage, they have very swampy areas, also they have very big knots and holes on their greens. Beautiful sights with all the lakes and animals aside from this the course is just a 1 out 5 everytime and never seems to Progress at all.

Course was overbooked. Pace was ridiculously slow following a groups of 5 walkers. Got paired up with a total jerk and his pal. Jerk decided it was a good idea to talk smack about my son and it all went downhill from there. Picked up my ball from the first green and walked away before having a fight. Staff was very responsive and apologetic and offered us a rain check but weren’t able to do it because I booked through GolfNow.

My first time at an executive course. Conditions were alternating rain and sun (Florida weather is interesting) which affected play but greens and grass conditions were ok. It was a great short game practice and short par3 practice for sure, which will help my overall game as a new golfer. Decent green hills was good chip practice compared to a lot of flat Florida greens.

Staff members were friendly and great.

The rate that GolfNow advertises is not allowed at this course. I paid for $25 for 18 holes, and when I arrived to the course I was told I can only play 9 holes and pay extra to play another 9 holes. The staff advised that you can only reserve to play 9 holes online. The course only has 9 holes so I figured I would play around twice. However, when I arrived they even posted a sign in the window saying that what GolfNow advertises is wrong. The staff advised that they attempted to reach out to GolfNow, but have been ignored. GolfNow also takes a percentage of the payment before you are told to pay the rest at the course. The staff at Briar are great, but the course was a little beat up this winter season. Hopefully GolfNow can fix this and make things right!

I had to I had to wait over a half hour past my tee time because the course ran out of golf carts they only have 16 on the entire course. Also they have no Ranger so the pace of play is extremely slow!

Golf now showed this course as an 18 hole with cart included. When I arrived at the course the club house was a shed, and the course is only a 9 hole course. The golf now price only gets you 1 round, but they try to sell you on a second time through for half price. Pace of play was terrible as I sat in the second tee box for 30 min before leaving the course. Conditions of course was not bad though.

This is not a course for an event or for the appearances and amenities. It is solely for improvement and to get better. Price is good and the course layout can be challenging with a couple of holes but overall great for beginners. Not intimidating but could use better carts and amenities. Overall good experience for the price.

Very slow pace for beginners but the course is tough with the traps and water on a lot of holes. The tee boxes were destroyed and had tons of divots.

I will never play at Briar Bay or book through Teeoff again. I arrived 20 minutes early as you shoukd to be told they have limited working carts and they are an hour behind on tee times. I was there with my wife and two kids who really wanted to okay so we were going wait, but then the lady at the desk decided to let one of the foursomes in front of us to ha e another foursome join them since they were regulars. I asked her why would she allow that since they didn't have a tee time, and they were already way behind. She said because they're regulars and friends of hers. Infuriating and unprofessional. Tried calling Teeoff to get a refund or at least a credit, but their message said the lines were busy and someone would call us back and we wouldn't lose our place in line. We'll 24 hours later, still no call back. $80 lost. Never again!
