Definite gem on the Gulf Coast

Enjoyed an excellent round here with my son. Course was in great condition- even during the extreme heat. Layout is challenging but fair; plenty of opportunities to work out any driver issues without getting into too much trouble. Only thing that would have made it top notch would have been a cart person during the round. Luckily we bought some Gatorade at the beginning, but a couple of cocktails would have made a highly enjoyable round.

Gorgeous golf course

Gorgeous golf course, well designed holes, in fantastic condition. Very challenging greens, and while "punched" 3 weeks ago, were still fast. One of the nicest courses I have played.

Very nice

A very nice course with friendly staff. Greens are quite “tricky”. That’s not meant as unfair, but rather as hit it close or your putt may have multiple breaks. Lots of elevation changes on the greens, and like most Florida courses not much elevation change from tee to green.

Played on summer in the afternoon so course wasn’t real busy. Played through one 4 some after waiting a few holes and finish in around 3 hours. Seemed a bit pricey for the summer, but it was a good experience and I would play again.

Saturday afternoon golf

An enjoyable round of golf. The course is in very good shape. The greens rolled really well. The pace of play was slow, but we finished before dark. Would play again if I was in the area.

Definitely recommend

Good course. Great amenities. Good little food hut between 9 &10. Great driving range. Little confusing getting to hole 4 due to construction but will fix itself after construction. Highly recommend. One of the better courses I've played in the last year.

It would have been good to know that the greens were punched before booking the round. No discount up front due to the conditions of the greens. Pace of play poor waited at least 5 minutes and in some cases up to 10 min on every tee box. Fairways and tee boxes in good condition
