The Evans at Canal Shores

It’s a fine course and will be even better when the road construction bi-secting the course is finally done. The construction progress seems very slow. The road was under construction when I played the course last year. — The parts of the parking lot that require a parking fee are very poorly marked. — The large canteens on the course, which supply drinking water, had been removed. That was so disappointing and irritating. — There are no ball washers. They would be of use. — The young men driving maintenance carts are friendly but they could do a better job of getting rid of the bottles and cans that are left on the Tee signs and Tee areas.. — There was one instance where a course ranger would have helped: an atrociously slow threesome should have been nudged along faster, or been told to let people play through.

I love having this course in my community and it is good value. I have also seen a solid effort to improve course conditions. However, there are major issues with people walking on the course without a tee time, singles being allowed to start before their time and crowd my group, and the food at hole 9 is almost never open.

Do not play weekdays in the summer. I ran into very young kids just cutting around the course. There were several teens who appeared to be hitting balls without paying. Perhaps kids that live along the course. One actually hit up onto the green while I putted. Also ran into several non golfers casually walking down the middle of the fairways on several holes, as if they weren't on a golf course. I cut my round short by 8 holes because if this. I will be back but in the evening once the kids go back to school.

Great value, challenging for a shorter course, good course to walk, not crowded

The greens are in much better shape than last year and they roll great. The course looks pretty solid overall!

There was a two some about to start on the first tee at our foursomes tee time. They claimed that the front desk told them to tee off. This was a very busy day and I know that there were no available tee times before ours. This made our round very slow to have random people put in front of us. There are always random people sneaking on the course as well.
