Vista Plantation Golf Course
About
Vista Plantation Golf Club is an Arthur Hills-designed course that is conveniently located near all of Vero Beach's attractions. The course is just a short drive from the scenic beaches, which are part of Florida's Treasure Coast. The course is compact but challenging with small, fast greens and tight fairways. Water hazards also come into play on a few holes. The golf course is challenging enough for avid players yet forgiving enough for high handicappers to approach with confidence. It's a player-friendly layout that is great for beginners and seniors. Though the golf course may not require distance, your short game skills will be put to the test. There is not only water but also numerous strategically placed bunkers. Vista Plantation is a golf course that will make you think and you'll also need to be accurate.

Worst golf experience I’ve every had
This course really needs to figure out it’s scheduling the whole front nine was backed up after hole 3. I realize that in golf you are going to need to wait on people some times but this was at a complete standstill. At the turn I was waiting on a foursome and a solo to tee off and in front of them there was another foursome on 11. Behind us was a group of two what was waiting on my group. We stopped playing at the turn bc it was unbearable. I went in the pro shop to ask if I could play the back 9 another time and they said they don’t do that. Very disappointed as this was on my day off in which I was looking forward to golf!
Hot and humid
Summer in Florida. This is our favorite summer coarse. Plays fairly fast. Challenging. Friendly staff.
Wow! We are so happy you enjoyed your round, sb394ever! We look forward to seeing you again soon at Vista Plantation Golf Course.
Fast !
Record 18 holes for me!!
1 hour, 19 minutes!!!!
No one in front of me!!! So…… enjoyable. Shy a record fast round with a score of 72, 10 over par!!!!
Greens were plugged and sanded but if I hit it enough to the hole it dropped!
Ya gotta play this course!!

Lack of Respect
I went to use the driving range and got there a little before 7! The dispenser wasn't open, so I waited, even though there was somebody practicing on the range! There was a group waiting to tee off, so I waited, figuring the facility wasn't open yet! They finally teed off, but the dispenser still wasn't open! They got almost to the first green and there wasn't a lock on the dispenser, so I opened it and got balls, figuring they just hadn't got to it yet! Just as the balls came out a worker came out and asked how I got the balls, I said I opened it, he said this is private property and I should respect private property! He was trying to catch me in a lie, because there is a camera there and they knew I opened it! They will NEVER have to worry about me disrespecting their property again, because even though it is 5 minutes farther for me, I'm going to practice at Sandridge from now on, it's a much nicer facility!
Vista

No rain check?????
Booked through Golfpass. Rained out after 9 holes. They said the course gets no money so couldn’t give a rain check. So, Golfpass, where is my nine hole rain check?????!!!

Etiquette !
I was a single. I caught three gals on the 2nd tee and the graciously ask me to play through. So I did on the fourth hole I caught up with a foursome of older guys who could care less if I had to wait. Pace of play became ridiculous! Finally, when I saw them going on to 10, I drove around them and went to 11. Never saw them again, thank God! On fourteen I caught a twosome, you guys, who asked me to go ahead and play through. I finished with a 73!
I found it interesting that the ladies and young gentlemen new common golf etiquette but the old guys didn’t ! Or possibly just didn’t give a crap.
None of this was the fault of the course, but there was no ranger or assistant to be seen.
