Fun course

A bit wet in places, but easily avoidable. The greens were just sanded so a bit slow but they played true. I really enjoyed my round and will be returning soon.

Great course

Everything was fantastic

All of the employees were great

Food at the bar and the bar were really good

The only thing that could be fixed were the cart paths. Besides that it was fantastic

Can’t wait to play again

Great golf adventure

I just moved to Florida and had a great time playing this course. Challenging and adventurous; even saw my first gator slide into a pond nearby. I plan to play again many times.

Surprised

The course is in good shape only the big huge ruts beside all the cart paths on the back nine where a little trouble some. Trying to step over them at times to get to your ball. It’s a shame s who ever was hired to clean up the course didn’t care what they did to the cart paths.

Don't expect a 4 star

Absolutely ridiculous that this course is rated 4 stars. Figured I'd give it another shot since it was a 4 star, but it was the same as a couple years ago when I played it. Greens in rough shape, fairways too. Only improvement was the carts now had sand to fill divots although it looked like most didn't do that. This course should be rated a 2 or 2.5 star at best. Pace of play was great as there was hardly anyone out there, but I think that's because of the quality of the course. GN needs to reevaluate this course and get the rating down where it belongs.

Maybe one day....

The staff upon checking in a Willowbrook couldn't have been nicer. Sadly it went downhill from there. The course plays next to a 250 acres, 700 unit housing development that is under construction so there is a constant stream of dust blowing across the course. I'm sure there was a time when Willowbrook was a nice tract but now it's wet, overgrown, in disrepair, and has large dead trees everywhere, many of which have toppled over but they just lay there, a couple covering cart paths. I have to wonder if the developer of the housing next door has inquired about the Willowbrook land.

Very Challenging course

Very Challenging course, with lots of obstacles. Course was in good condition and is in a great setting. I love the challenge of needing to hit the ball straight or else! If you slice, bring plenty of balls. If you can hook or slice at will, then you may be fine. Always fun to golf at Willowbrook and a nice selection of golf wear in the clubhouse!

Getting better

Played this course a couple years ago and figured I'd try again since it was a hot deal. GN has this rated 4 stars which is an absolute joke. I'd honestly give it a 2.5. Fairways are decent but could be better. Tee boxes and most greens need work. The fairways are better than a couple years ago and some of the greens are pretty good. Pace of play was great because there weren't many people. We played as a 2some and made 29 holes in just over 2.5 hours. I'd play it again if the price was right but GolfNow needs to change the rating to b more accurate. I expected it to be a lot better with a 4 star rating.
