Great course!
I played today (11/23) and it's in great shape. The greens were smooth, fast and soft on the approach. Some of the rough that's way off the fairway( spots I found often today) were brutal because they are supposed to be penal, but the fairways were very nice.. my advice-- hit it straighter than I did. Staff was very courteous and pace of play was even better than expected. 100% recommend!
Moccasin Wallow
Decent course for the money. Good layout and decent greens.
Course needs work
Grass was over grown and just seems like it needs some love. Whoever is caring for it isn’t doing a good job at all
Went off at 8 to beat the heat
My only criticism is the tee boxes need some attention the rest of the course was ok.
Solid course
Played Sunday with 6 of my mouth breating, porch dwelling buddies. Went off as a threesome and a foursome. Pace of play was quick. No hold ups. Which is rare on a Sunday. I may be biased on this review since I chipped in from a bunker for birdie on the par 3 second hole. Made my day. The greens were all consistant and smooth other that one on the backside that had a bad patch about 2' wide and 8' long. Guess where I landed! The fairways were in great shape. Tee boxes, also good. The Lady in the pro shop was terrific. The restaurant is closed due to staffing issues. She had plenty of drinks and ice on hand with small coolers. The starter was friendly and had info on the course conditions. My group will definately play this course again.
Would not recommend for the cost.
Terrible condition, tee boxes, fairways and greens. Few greens in fair condition but most poor. No water in ball washers, no soap or towels in bathrooms, poor limited food options. Not worth $50 we played.
neglected course
This course has deteriorated, they are not looking after it. Front 9 tee boxes were mostly sand or a cow pasture. Fairways poor. Cart paths are terrible. no or little water in ball washers, no towels. Washrroms were dirty. Finished around 5:00 PM and clubhouse was locked, no access to washrooms. Can get more value for the same money at other courses in the area.
They are letting Course go
Very poor condition. Fairways weedy and dirt. Not the course I was use to play on. Tees unkept markings are missing and there seems to be little care in the maintenance of the course. Would not recommend to anyone.
Golf gods are watching
Greens were in best shape we’ve seen in 6 months. Unfortunately, I fixed two ball marks for every one of mine. It is a shame the disrespect people have for the course and game. By the depth and positioning of the divots, they are not beginning golfers but people who should understand what a good approach shot does to a green and are just choosing not to fix them. The putting gods are not favorable to those that don’t fix their divots and they are watching. ;-)
A Hidden Gem
This is a privately owned golf club. They regularly close it down to do maintenance. A few greens need some TLC. Other than that it is in amazing shape. In fact, it's one of the best around Tampa that I've played.
I like hole 9. Interestingly, they placed the 1st and 3rd hard holes right after each other. That was rather cool. The tight fairways can get you into trouble. Watch out for the many water hazards. Also, one hole has a lot of bunkers.
This has quickly become one of my three favorite holes.
