OK course but pricier than some in area
I have played this course before. Got a deal on GolfNow or price for playing golf at this course is more than I like to play. Did get rained out so got a raincheck. The Owner is not that friendly.
Avoid
I was shocked at how bad the course was and how run down the facilities were. I read the reviews prior to playing and they were probably written by friends of the owners.
Great for the $
Fairways & greens were very good, rough & sand traps need work. Lots of water so look at the layout before you hit
Great value
Tee boxes were okay. Fairways and greens were great. Will play it again. Love the layout
Course Improving
The greens for the most part were in very nice shape. The fairways were average and the tee boxes were hit and miss.
thank you for your review. We had an issue with some of the tees and were expecting to over seed them in the next few weeks. Due to overseed cost we have decided to rebuild and reside some of the weaker tees. As the past three months of wet weather maintenance has been a challenge with all of the rain.
Perfect day
Not crowded/played quick, course is in great condition, staff friendly. Other than donating a couple balls to lakes was perfect day.
Course was in good condition.
Course was in good condition. Greens were soft and fast, a few Tee Boxes were in need of a little TLC. I would recommend this course to any golfer unafraid of water.
Impressed with improvements!
Greens were beautiful, really immaculate for the price range. Fairways were excellent as well. Haven’t played here in a while and the transformation from then to now was impressive. A few of the tee boxes could use some work but were not at all an issue. Definitely worth playing!
Great shape
Haven’t played the course for awhile and it was really improved. Great conditions, friendly staff, new carts and good pace of play.
Interesting/demanding course
Played here today for the first time. I was pretty pleased with the overall condition of the course, the fairways and greens are in good shape and putts rolled true. A couple of tee boxes were in rough shape, but that didn’t cause me any issues. Only complaint would be the rough, especially around the greens have a lot of weeds/mixed grasses making a lot of lies off the fairways a guessing game. Overall, I will play here again, there is a good mix of demanding tee shots with variety of approach shots, and different green complexes. I think I hit every club in my bag during the round.
Best condition yet.
I have always liked the greens and the layout at "The Moc". Now the fairways are also in nice shape.
Fun course
The course was in very good condition, good healthy greens and fairways. Most other courses in Florida are completely waterlogged right now but not the case here. When I did manage to keep the ball in play, I always found my ball and had zero plugged lies. Pace of play was excellent, no waiting at any point as a single. Will definitely be back, good work Moc!
Best I've Seen
Have played several times since 1997 when it was called Imperial Lakewoods. Played last in 2018. I have never seen this course in such good shape. Even though I struggled with my game , the course itself was a delight. Unfortunately , we got rained out after 10 holes. We will be back.
Rain does amazing things
Over the last two weeks the course has been closed due to pure saturation due to 9 inches of rainfall and unable to maintain the golf course.... well today they were able to finally get a FULL cut and WOW!!!! If u haven’t played The Moc in a while, you need to give it a GO! Impressive is an understatement! Greens are great and fairways are fast!
Love the layout
Been playing here a long time. Seems like they been improving the place forever, but things are coming along. The greens look great, they needed to be cut and rolled, but they are coming in. Same with the fairways, but you can tell they are putting money into it to improve it. They got brand new carts which are great. I wish they would switch the holes back around. 9 use to be 18 which I always thought was a great finishing hole. Pace was great. I like the driving area is into water. Wildlife on the coarse is great. The parking lot and cart path need redone dramatically, but I think it's something they are getting ready to do. It's always fun here and for years I've been hearing they are sinking money into it. I do wish they would get the fairways straightened out. They didn't roll at all and we're a bit patchy but like I said it looks they are manicuring it. So overall it was enjoyable and always do enjoy playing here
Mehhh course. Golf carts are fast.
The greens looked like they didn’t top-dress or water enough after they aerated them. The course itself has potential to be a fun and challenging layout. There is enough variety to make the place special if it was taken care of. If your going to have a cart path make it so you can drive on it. It looks terrible and drives even worse. Either pave it or take up the concrete and put down crushed shells. If your not going to mow at least edge or weed whack around the course. Frame it in somehow. Go out and buy sod and put it down in the tee-boxes. When the public course is your closest competition and you can’t distinguish yourself from them you have problems. All you have to do is look at the fountain in front of the main entrance to see what they care about appearance and upkeep.
Thank you for leaving review without asking questions. First your comment on the fountain doesn’t tell a story at all. What you didn’t see was that the fountain had been taken apart so that we could replace it with new motors and filters which were done the day you were here. The photo on 16 that you took two of was topdressed dirt which were put down after we had sprayed chemicals to treat for nematode damage. So as you say we aren’t distinguishing ourselves from them I’m just going to say you probably do not know enough about the grounds maintenance of a golf course and what goes on behind the scenes. You also do not know that they are starting construction on the parking lot as we speak. I can only say as they say in the south... bless your heart.
Fun course with some challenging holes
Course was in great shape. The fairways were green and well cut. The greens were almost perfect, just a few dead spots on the outside fringe of one hole. A few of the tee boxes were a bit beat up, but didn't effect my game at all. Overall, this is a $30 course in the summer. I will be back.

Let’s tell the story. You booked a hot deal for 12:52 and showed up at 11:40 am and we’re told I will check you in for your time at 12:30. You were rude and said you were just going to putt. You don’t need a cart to go putt. I said if you don’t like the rules of playing at the tee time you paid for I’ll contact golf now and get you your money back. Don’t book a time and expect to tee off an hour earlier.
