Pine Lakes Golf Club

This course is in decent shape…. If you don’t look at the greens while you’re on them. Not a single green was puttable. Taking a line didn’t even matter because the ball was going to hop skip and jump its way there anyways. The fact that they charged $50 to play this is just embarrassing. The most abhorrent greens I’ve ever seen.

Every green on the course has been lost. Was not a matter of maintenance being performed. Totally bare except for the random weeds. Hitting a putt was like playing Plinko. Should have been tipped off when there were virtually no cars in the parking lot at 10am on a Saturday. I asked the person who checked me in why so few people, and she claimed to be just as surprised. This course is normally in decent shape. They have the nerve to charge more than the normal charge when course is in good shape. This is not something that can be fixed any time soon.

The greens are in bad shape and have been for a few years now ..hope they are repaired soon!

Greens had an invasion of different grass that made it impossible to putt. All 18 holes. Some TLC and maintenance on tee boxes, ball washers, and signage. Otherwise, course layout was nice, pace was good and staff were friendly.

This place is a joke at $ 50 no greens fairways are bare

Sorry but this was the worst golf course we played while visiting St Augustine Nice layout. Poorly maintained The greens ate all dried out with weeds

This was once a really nice course but the greens are in terrible shape.

Putting is all but impossible!

This course was in awful shape. Not just one hole, all greens were terrible with patches, holes, no grass and hard as a rock sand. I have never played on a course like this. GolfNow needs to remove this golf course from the list of courses available. I wouldn't pay $10. to play on that course again.

This is absolutely the worst golf course I have ever played on. Every green was in awful shape; holes, patches and no grass, only sand packed down with some weeds. The traps were in terrific shape, but even the fairways were only fair. The clubhouse and bar area were very nice. Pine Lakes GC needs to warn people of the condition.

What was once a consistently good course to play has now become a disappointing course due to poor conditions. The greens in particular are covered with little clusters of weeds that negatively effect every putt. Tee boxes often resemble sand boxes with little or few patches of grass. I have played this course regularly over the years and this course has never been in such poor shape. I always considered Pine Lakes a top course for cost, layout and playability. Not any longer. The conditions do not warrant the high greens fee and conditions put this course in my penalty box. My buddies and I won't be returning to play Pine Lakes any time soon.

Greens are non existent and unplayable. Course was allowing 5 people to play at one time per hole. Will never waste my money here again.

Course layout was very good. The GREENS were the worst I have ever played on.

This course is in horrible shape. No greens or tee boxes to speak of..weeds and sand. Could be nice and staff was friendly but not even GHIN rated. We won’t be back, especially when there are so many courses for the same or better fees in far better condition

The friendly staff and nice bar/restaurant are negated by the horrendous condition of the course. I played here regularly for several years as it's easy to get out. Of course the reason that it's easy is because few people play here due to the poor condition. I witnesses the greens go from terrible condition to pretty decent condition. That lasted a few months and they're now worse than ever. It's like putting on a tar paper roof. The layout is nice but for $50 it's just not worth it. I can play courses in good condition for $35-$45 .

Although I heard from other reviews that the greens were horrible, I still came to play as it was an Arnold Palmer designed course

The layout was fabulous, with every hole having its own characteristic. Especially loved the Par 3 designs

Fairways were good enough to play ball down although some areas around the fringes were a bit bare

Bunkers we’re all raked

But Mr Palmer would be in tears if he ever saw the condition of the greens! Almost had to play “ automatic two putts “. Not sure what the problem is as I have played several other local courses. At least four greens were partially roped off because condition was so bad

Quarter sized green grass ( foreign) dot each green with dormant grass creates condition of your putts bouncing

Wish I knew more about agronomy

We had a group of 4 young players in front of us with only 3 sets of clubs. We had to wait on them at every hole The greens were bad. When putting it felt like I was playing Plinko on the Price is Right There were clumps of grass on the greens so the ball would bounce off those clumps when I putted

Great layout, but greens are awful……worse than last year…..
