A Good Day of Golf

Staff were excellent. Greens were excellent. Fairways were very good. Tees need a bit of work otherwise, a very good day at Bent Tree. We will be back !

Dissapointed

We played Bent Tree today and the greens are pretty good. However the tee boxes we're mostly dirt and half the fairways we're in bad shape. The traps we're unplayable. If you can play this course for $50 do it otherwise spend your money elsewhere.

Sad what it has become

Oh how far Bent Tree has fallen. What used to always be a well maintained course has now fallen to bordering a dog track. Greens were OK, a tad slow, but at least consistent. Fairways where the overseeding took were pretty good, but many areas either were missed or had seed wash out and were dead grass or sandy dirt. Several fairways had small ponds where irrigation system is leaking & not fixed. We haven't had rain in weeks!!! Most Tee boxes were very rough ....a few had grass, but most looked like sand pits. And now the worse condition, there is literally NO SAND in any bunkers!!! NONE!!! They're literally 1/4" of raked dirt on top of hard packed clay.....absolutely unplayable!! I mean, we're in Florida.......really how much can a couple of truckloads of sand really cost Pope Golf to fix this issue??? It's really sad, because Benttree used to be one of the top courses in our area, and it just needs a little bit of TLC to return it to it's glory...enough where you could overlook how they really changed the course when they squeezed in the new houses!! Doubt I'll be back.....used to be one of my favorites in the area!!

Good value

Price is fair for the condition and quality of course. I’ve come to really enjoy this place and although the clubhouse is dated, there is no functioning restaurant right now and no meaningful driving range I find the positives outweigh. The course is in pretty good condition. Greens are in mostly great shape. They do have a cart girl and the course is challenging enough but not too difficult.

Played this course many times but hurt it was in bad shape over the summer so I avoided it. Just recently went back and course is in good shape. Much improved from over the summer. Greens are in great shape. Enjoyed the day golfing and scored well.
