Not worth it

Course should be 60$ max, not 120$, layout was good and that’s about it

Good layout but not worth that much money. Expensive

I agree with aiming hi. But be realistic and let us play for less than the average course around. $83 dollar hot deal is maybe not worth it. I wish you would perfect greens and tees to charge that much. But otherwise decent!

Don’t waste your money or time here

Rude staff that seem like they hate their lives and everyone that comes to play. Sense of entitlement you would only expect at a private golf course. Course is so overpriced and it’s at best. I mean at best average.

Way overpriced, no food and drinks. Go anywhere else

Great course!

Brought me back to the north Georgia/ Tennessee golf I played a few months back. Elevation changes are awesome for the Florida area, greens rolled nice, fairways in good condition, tee boxes in good condition. Very much would recommend. Amazing facility also. 10 thumbs up

Great layout …

Great concept with track man range and restaurant. The course is in ok shape with unique layout but the pace was horrible. We had afternoon tee time and the advise when arriving they have people that started on the back going in front us so we had to wait 20 min after our tee time to even start. Then not to mention the guys in front us was taking minutes looking for balls. They need a ranger would help a lot.

Great layout, horrible rough

This is a quality course; teeboxes, fairways,bunkers and greens are in top shape.

All of this was nearly ruined by 6 to 10 inch secondary rough!

If your ball goes in there you can kiss it goodbye. You might say, "well don't hit it in there." Sure, but average golfers tend to find the rough. I wasted over 20 minutes either looking for my ball or my partner's ball.

CUT THE HEAVY ROUGH TO 3 INCHES. THAT IS PENALTY ENOUGH. My buddy and I will be back when you do.

Disappointing

I was looking forward to seeing what had been done since the reopening. I have played this course since it was Diamond Players Club and always loved the layout. I enjoy a difficult course, with tough conditions, but this place is borderline unplayable. The cut heights of the grass is atrocious from tee to green. The tee boxes are 1" deep grass, fairways are the length of most other courses rough; zero roll out. If you miss a fairway by 2 yards you will, likely, never find your ball. Hitting the edge of a green and having it trickle into 10" high gnarly grass is a real treat. Whomever decided on making the bunkers out of builders sand and putting 3x the amount of sand needed was a genius. Impossible to not have a plugged lie that is, at least, 2-3 inches beneath the surface and impossible to advance. I drove 2.5 hours to meet a buddy to play this course out of fond memories. Never again.

Great course

Loved playing this course for the first time. Very unforgiving if you don’t land in the fairway. The rough was so long even though it doesn’t look like it, if you watch your ball land just a foot off the fairway you may never find your ball. Other than that I loved the course! Definitely going to be returning.

Mind Blowing!

The course is in immaculate shape. One of the best tracks I have played. Every shot and putt must be played with thought, great imagination, and honed skills. I cannot wait to play this course again. Takes full concentration with shot making abilities. The rough and fringes were designed to increase difficulty, therefore, not placing your ball in the fairway and on the greens will increase the difficulty exponentially. It is great to play a course that massages the brain cells. Ohhh, and the services of the staffs, restaurant and driving range are off the charts.

Great layout

I think it has one of the best layouts in the area, roughs are tough, the only downside were the greens that were sandy, other than that it's was a lot of fun

Slow round

Normal golf round but the pace of play was abysmal. They are sending out too many groups in the morning. They had 3 groups stacked up on #1 and 4 groups stacked up on #10 at 8:45 AM. Horrible course management and it’s been like that. I won’t return until they figure that out and I can play the round in under 5.5 hours.

Over Packed course

The course has a nice layout and fun to play, but be ready to play a 5 1/2 hour round. There was no warning or any mention that the greens have been recently punched and they were doing front tee and back tee starts. As we drove past the front tees to get to number 10 where we were starting, there was at least three groups backed up on the front tee. When we got to the back tee, at our start time we were the fourth group on the tee box. While we were waiting to start around 30 minutes late, there was two group of members who had made the turn and also waiting. As a long time Golfer, I understand doing a front and back start but packing in that many people and playing a 5 1/2 hour around is ridiculous.

unplayable rough

I played here last year. The rough was literally ten inches high. Spend half of the round looking for balls. I thought there was probably a reason why it was not cut. I was looking forward to playing the course again under better conditions. I was very disappointed to find it exactly the same this time. Will probably not come back.

Terrible amenities

Course is in decent shape, but nothing special. Many other better courses in Orlando. What made it terrible were the lack of amenities for a round of golf. 8am tee time. No food, no coffee, nothing to buy pre round. 1 unisex bathroom in the pro shop. Had to wait behind 3 people at 7am to use the same bathroom. Already off to terrible start. Cart girl comes around close to 9am. No candy bars, out of water, and decided to give us water in a cup and scooped it out of the coolers on the golf cart where all the drinks are sitting. Thanks for the effort, but that’s disgusting.

At the turn, we decided to try for food. Roughly 10:15am. Outside bar has nothing, told us to go inside. Restaurant and bar both have same menus and nothing to grab and go. Ordered a hot dog; took close to 15 min to get them. Came out on a plate even though ordered to go…took another 5 min to wrap them to go. One of my buddies ordered a black coffee which came out as a cappuccino. lol. Just can’t make this stuff up.

Pace of play was fine, and an ok layout but they need to have some traditional golf course amentiries, especially for a course charging $80 a round. First time and last time.
