First time visit to Sun ‘n Lake
We played the Turtle Run Course, 8:30 shotgun start on a busy Saturday. Finished in about 4 hours and 10 minutes. Most of the players were locals, the staff was extremely hospitable to us visitors and very helpful. Very scenic course, greens, fairways and landscaping were excellent. Tee boxes a bit weedy in spots but doable. First cut of rough a bit deep so at times we had trouble finding a ball. Traps raked out nicely. Nice clubhouse, great bar and restaurant. Recommended.
Shotgun Start
This was a shotgun start. I order to get everyone of the course a shotgun was scheduled. This worked great. Course was undergoing some irrigation work. There were several holes with new sod. But overall a great day. Played at a good pace.
Pace of play was very poor
Had a 9:30 t-time. Got to first tee at 9:30a there were 2 groups ahead of us waiting to tee off. Waited on every hole, no ranger in sight. Otherwise course was challenging and in good shape. Staff was friendly.
Fun golf course
Fun well maintained golf course with rustic setting.
Got to the 2 hole a a group walked up on the green as we tried to play to look at it
Horrible!
The pace of play was horrible! There were kids with their parents and grandparents that were running all over the course and swinging golf clubs. Do you really think they are replacing divots! It took us almost 3 hours to get thru 9 holes. after the first 9, we went back and did the first 9 again with no one on the course. They must have booked it so tight and so many people didn't know how to golf and the course is really bad on Deer run.
Turtle Run
First one out…played entire round in 1 hr 54 minutes. Also, got to see my friend, Chompers on the 18th hole. Great place! Highly recommend.
Deer Run and Turtle Run
Practice facilities were in great shape, friendly staff, tee boxes and fairways were in good shape. Greens on the other hand are terrible on Deer Run with that disease and 1/3 were also bad on turtle with the same disease. You should be telling people about the greens before booking as the ones on Deer were almost not even worth putting on.
