Great Day

Booked a Hot deal for 2 in the afternoon because of the cold weather. Temp ended up perfect at 70 and the course was in excellent condition. Pace of play was fine and enjoyed the cart girl access. Will play here again.

wonderful time

played deer run for first time in several years-in great shape-fairways plush for Florida type of grass-very good greens-a great day. usually play by myself but on back nine paired up with charming couple on 11th hole. remember the back nine not my favorite, but in great condition and fun to play-back nine always more difficult than from nine. course seemed to be in better condition than years ago.

Told you

Rarely bother on the weekends but, the hot deal went from 14 to 12 bucks! I didn’t even bother to use the monthly discount code and frankly, a bit surprised none of you jumped on it… 13.99 @ 13:13…. Did some stuff, checked again and it was 11.99… 40 mile drive and a little rushed but, decided why not. A lot more crowded than the last time I went, but, still able to get as many holes in as I wanted and got home in time to see the start of the regional volleyball final! Again, as a single, easy to pick and chose how I want to play and a little bouncing around… but, well worth the effort!

don't pass on it

!st...

my 1st round in over a year...due to surgery... handicap and how often I play suffer accordingly...but, "experienced"

all those "hot deal rewards" a $10 value, unused...ugggh !

so the hot deal here and the reward made the price perhaps the BEST deal I can recall! That deal is available to many, so jump on it.

I was surprised that it was pretty "slow" for a Friday afternoon and easily could have finished in 2.5 hours .... course was in good shape 1 or 2 greens were in need of weed control, but did not detract at all from the bargain! Had looked at these courses previously, though never pulled the trigger, opting for Pinecrest a few times, but now that I Know !!! will be back, hopefully before the "in-season" prices climb...

Greens need some work

The course was in decent shape except many of the greens were in poor condition. Im not sure if it was fungus or bugs but many of the greens had bald spots which made putting hit and miss. Ive played this course severaltimes before and this was disappointing

Excellent

The Turtle Run course is in Excellent condition and is a very challenging course . In my opinion one of the best reasonably priced courses n Florida. I find it comparable with the Reunion courses in difficulty and condition. at less than half the price. WELL DONE!
