One of the best in Ocala area

Course is in excellent shape - tees, fairways, sand traps and greens all perfect. Greens running true and pins can be in some tough positions. Highly recommend this course.

Cups

The cups were cut for the Marion Masters. The cups need to be on the greens in positions that are 6 easy, 6 medium, and 6 challenging. Hopefully this will be addressed. Otherwise what a fun place to play. I'll be back soon.

Great Course friendly staff

As an Ocala native I have played here many times. After a 4 year hiatus (kids) I am able to enjoy golfing again. This course is great to get back into it. Not super easy but not extremely difficult. Carts Greens Fairways rough all kept very well. Their practice putting area is large and great and their chipping area is amazing to practice. This will be my home course.

Early Tee Time

Early tee time, off the first tee, first hole facing into the sun. Worst part of the entire round. Staff was very friendly, course in really good shape and the burger after golf was great. We were greeted by the started on the practice green and advised that we were the next group to play. He had some humorous stories to share plus some tips on the course. One of the grounds workers recommended we eat at the course restaurant and we were glad he did. Fun day, very enjoyable. Short holes presented challenges, water and sand traps.

Nice course, great people

This course is a great value. It is also very woman friendly, from the staff to the layout of the course.

It was great to be able to reach the par fives in or near regulation. All my work on my game played off and left me feeling good.

Great shape

I have played this course on and off for the last 30 years and find it in great shape. It is probably one of the easiest tracts to score on for a high handicapper like myself. Pace is sometimes slower than most. Staff is friendly though they could use extra help.

This course is in great shape

Although we ran into stormy weather after 9 holes it was a great 1st time experience. The starter (Jim Davis) was extremely professional and helpful to us from an information standpoint and is one of the reasons we would return again. The course was in excellent shape and we played 9 holes in about 2 hours. Great food and drinks in the 19th hole and staff was very friendly to our needs. Looking forward to going back in the near future.

Course Layout

Although the course is kept in very good shape, almost all of the greens are on top of the next tee box which creates two problems; whether you are on the green or on the tee there is distraction and when you are on the tee there are frequently incoming shanks.

Nice course...

The course is forgiving for a guy with my abilities, which aren't many!!! It`s pretty wide open and not too many o/b holes...The staff are great, friendly and personable...I find it a good course for me due to my limited skills, but the guys i golf with enjoy the course also...With the golfnow.com prices it makes it worth the ride...

Good, good

Golf course is in great shape. Just learning to play so I appreciate the friendly staff, the fair price and the welcome pace of play. I would think about introducing electric golf carts as the gas ones are noisy, smelly and more difficult to maintain a smooth speed and ride. The cart is the only minor inconvenience I felt. Overall, a good place to play.

A hot day at Ocala G C

It had been some time since I had last played this course, more than 10 years. The course was in fantastic shape from tee to green, really could not get much better.

There are elevation changes and the greens require a good read as they can fool you easily. The only draw back to the day was the heat, really oppressive, but that's Florida in the summer months.

Quick greens and nice layout

I've been playing this course for over 10 years and this is the best it's ever been. The greens and bunkers are great after being redone. The layout is great, easy to navigate and challenging. I hope it keeps getting better and will continue to be proud of my home course.
