Great value

The weather was poor but the course overall was in decent shape. The tee boxes, greens and green side bunkers appeared to be recently renovated and were in great shape. The fairways and rough left a little to be desired condition wise. The course has some length on the par 4,s so play the right set of tees. Keep up the good work on the renovations. I'll definitely be back to play again.

Nice course

The fairways in the front nine were rough, but better on the back nine. (Probably in worse shape because it's Hanuary.)Fairways were wide with few challenges. Uninteresting layout on the front nine, much nicer on the back nine. Greens were challenging and fun to play. Bunkers and greens in great shape.
Staff were very friendly. Good value for the money, hut not a 4 star course.

New Greens

First time playing the course since the renovations. Fairways were thin, greens rolled well but did not accept approach shots. Some greens and next tee box are closely positioned. Be courteous to the group in front teeing off. Will return

Gem of a course

Everything about our round at this course exceeded our expectations. The staff, from the check in, the starter, to the grill ladies were the most courteous I've ever experienced. Thank you so much for making our day a great one.

First Time at Ocala

I guess all of the courses in the Ocala area and beyond are suffering from the dry autumn and early winter. Unless the courses have a decent watering system, the tee boxes and fairways are taking a beating. My review is based on the actual conditions of the course and not what I think the course is at all times. The greens and traps were very good and the layout of the course challenges all levels. I feel for the staff on these courses that don't have the necessary water systems and depend on the natural rain fall.

Local Treasure

New greens smooth as silk and quick- although being new they will not hold a shot very well yet. Traps excellent sand very soft and fluffy. Fun course
The makeover was well done and timely. Thanks Ocala !

Sweet new greens!

This course is really sweet. the greens are new, which means hard and fast. Bunkers have been redone and have really nice sand. The fairways and tee boxes were in very good shape. However the excellent conditions were tempered by the fact the pace of play was Awful! Our round took over 5 1/2 hours. There was no ranger to be found. You can't play decent golf with 15 min breaks between shots. There was no cart girl either on a Saturday! This is a really good course but the other factors hurt the experience.

Great Public Golf Course

I really enjoyed the course layout, and the new greens and bunkers were perfect.

Well maintained, friendly staff, and very appreciated ice water station.

Enjoyable Day

We were early for our tee time, but ended up teeing up late. Play was extremely slow, and it appears they had too many players trying to go out. No one wants a slow round. Other than that, the greens are firm and true. I can normally stop a ball easily on a green and it was very difficult to do so. The fairways were really forgiving and in great shape. The traps were well manicured. The staff was friendly and helpful. We will come back for sure as it was a good experience.
