Wow... Worth the ride!!
I'm from Jacksonville, my neighbor shared he liked the course, I went alone to check it out! Wow.... Unbelievable price meant low expectation, I was so wrong. Great scenery, matched up with some great guys, and course was challenging and rewarding! Tough pin placement, but fun all 18 hole. Greens and tee box, very nice. Greens, pretty fast and plenty of slopes, can make you feel like a PGA pro or break your putter!! Enjoy...
Mr.
It had rained for two days before we played, but the course drains well. The course conditions were great.
Love this course
We always enjoy playing here. Course is in great shape. Always stay for lunch. Cold beer and food is excellent.
Great October fall day.
Well worth the drive from Jacksonville.
Great layout in very good condition.
2 players, 18 holes, in 2:45 hours. 12:30 tee time
Very Nice Course
This course is very nice, and in very good condition. There were a few minor flaws in the greens, and it would only affect you, if you had to play through that area. Conditions overall were very good.
Fun course
Great course with enough variety to make it challenging. Not crowded and the course is in good shape. The staff at the bar makes you feel like you are walking into Cheers.
We love this course and wish it was in better shape
We both love this layout and like to play this course but it really wasn't in that good of condition. The greens were very slow and since it had rained alot in the past few weeks, the fairways were slow and the rough high. We will be back but only after a week or so of dry weather. It was cart path only so it was a little longer, time wise, to play.
Would play every day
Beautiful course in great shape. Lots of rain had course very wet, was cart paths only
Thumbs up
I definitely would recommend playing this course. Pace builds as you go because the back nine is a bit harder than the front. Wide open fairways, few hidden hazards and well maintained sand traps. Had an enjoyable day.
Great value
Nice course in good condition. Wide fairways but some challenging long holes. Always a very good value!
Value
Great course for the price. Well maintained, wide open course.
Beautiful course
Will definitely be playing here again . This is a all around great place
great place to play!
It was a great value for the money! The course was in great shape and played very fairly for our foursome.
Laurel Links
Great course for the money! Some tricky holes, but a good course for all levels of play.
Great Value
Played a wonderful round for our first time here. Very quiet, tranquil.... Booked another 18 holes for the next day too.
Amazing
Love the course it's a challenge for all skills of golf. I will definitely be going back more frequently.
