As You Would Expect

As one would expect within a good golf community, the course was exceptional. I was pleasantly surprised that the holes were not overly tight or truncated as with many golf communities. Although there was still some wetness to the fairways, the course was in excellent condition. This course was in better condition than any on Amelia Island along with the plus of having a better layout.

Great Experience

Course was in great shape. Pretty wet from the recent tropical storm so it was cart path only, but had a great time playing as a single (I think the heat and humidity kept people at home!). Pace of play was amazing and the staff was great, even when I pulled a boneheaded move and got my cart stuck! Definitely looking forward to my next round at Osprey Cove!

Great Layout!

Great course design and course layout. Definitely can’t walk it I guess, but a nice gated neighborhood course. Wish there had been a cart girl on a Saturday.

Awesome track interesting to play!

I hate giving negative reviews but honesty is best.

Cart staff was great, shop staff great. Course was great.

Carts should have been better for the price. Restaurant staff was extremely disappointing. We came in to eat an early dinner I believe there were two tables of 4 people each in the restaurant with a bartender and three waitstaff that I observed. We did not receive a single acknowledgement of our presence. After a time we went to the bar and got our drinks from the bar and again sat at our table . A waitress came with apps for the 4 top and left without a word to us. We decide to pay for our drinks and go elsewhere . As I got halfway to the bar a waitress came to me to greet me and I said we decided not to stay and she was pleasant as a paid my bill and she apologized and said there was miscommunication as to who was going to wait on us. Even if there was a communication issue someone could have given us menu and said your server should be with you. It's too bad that that was the ending of a great day otherwise.

I will recommend your golf course for sure. It's a course that makes you think. 🤔

Pretty golf course.

The golf course is nicely designed. You don’t feel cramped. The holes have generous fairways and the greens are nicely structured for approach shots. I will return.

Always enjoyable

I’ve played Osprey Cove five times in the last year and the conditions are always fantastic. Fun course, forgiving but still challenging, scenic. We drive an hour to play there and it has always been worth the drive.
