Underwhelming
My review is mostly based on poor value. If I had paid half the price, it would have felt just about right. But $120 for an afternoon tee time felt overpriced. By comparison, we played River Strand CC as guests the day before at a rate of $75. Not only was it a better price, but the course and overall experience were much better.
Pros:
Course Layout
Very friendly staff
Cons:
Gas carts with no GPS
No Rangers to be seen and the pace was slow as a result
No clubhouse

I Recommend This Course
Issues with this course include:
1. No gps in carts. For the price this no acceptable.
2, no club house or other amenities. Only a single beverage cart. Should be at least two given that there is only a small snack bar at the turn.
3. Greens are extremely rolling and unfair unless you have played them frequently. Should consider easier pin placement. Have never had so many 3 puts. Not a course for the uninitiated.

Well worth playing
Course was a drive from my base in Tampa (from St. Louis) but it was well worth it. Course was in excellent shape from tee boxes to the greens. The staff was friendly and helpful. I can’t imagine what the member course ar Esplande must be. 5 stars all around, will definitely be on my list for next year!!
