Layout okay, Fairways awful. Greens slow and inconsistent.

I have no idea how this course could be 4 star rated. I played it about 5 years ago and thought it to be okay but it has deteriorated. Fairways are sparce. Rough is mostly just dirt.

great course

For the course being extremely busy that day it was ran fairly smooth. It is a great course to play and is well maintained. There were a lot of staff that were going around to keep up with maintaining. Overall, a great course to play. The women in the 19th hole restaurant were very friendly and welcoming .

4 stars?

No idea why this was a 4 star course. Grass was dead, greens had a lot of dead spots. I think there is potential with a new grounds crew and better club house personel. Bought a golf now deal which includeded range balls on every time slot and the club house attendant tryed making me pay. Wasn't satisfied, I liked the price but will stay in Orlando.

Great Muni

For a Muni, this course gives you all you can handle including 4 sets of tees for men. That allows you to bite off as much of a challenge as you have the nerve for.

Great 'muni' course...

Loved the contoured greens and tight fring around the greens. Sand was really nicely managed, as were the beautiful fairways. You could maybe put up a score here, but it can also eat your lunch if you don't putt and chip well. I went home without having had lunch...

Would be 5 stars if all 18 holes were open

There was no indication on Golf Now that they were working on front nine and we will play back nine twice. The manager did give us a $5 rebate. The condition of the 9 holes were excellent and the staff were helpful. This is a level course with championship greens. Fast with subtle breaks so be careful especially with downhill putts.

Historic Feel

As one of the courses on the Florida Historic Golf Trail, I sought this course out to play. It has a great old feel to it . Wide open without much trouble anywhere. Very straight forward. Greens were fast and very puttable. Fairways were in fine shape and the rough didn't swallow your ball. Love the "old, historic" feel of this course. Will I be back, YES. Especially since my 80 year old Father liked playing this course also. We had a great time there.

ALWAYS ENJOY THIS COURSE

I have played this course since 1980, I now live in tampa and had not played it in over a year. I noticed a very negative article in the Ocala paper concerning course condtions 1 week prior to my round . I played anyway because this is one of my all time favorite tracks. I was very pleasantly surprised. Course was absolutely in above average condition for this time of year.
