Great conditions but overcrowded

There was a significant amount of play after the threat of a storm had passed. Long round but expecting slow play helped. Generally pace of play is quick or at least on time so not worried about future rounds.

Given all the rain we've had lately, the course was in great shape. The Staff here are the real difference. All of them are pleasant and helpful. They handle the GolfNow transactions effortlessly!

I thought I'd give it another chance, bad move!

I haven't been to this course in about 8-10 years and now I remember why. The tee boxes were not that great but you do have the ball on a tee. Fairways were horrible with bad patches all over and the rough was very spotty with alot of bare spots. The greens were just ok, they would be much better if everyone fix their ball mark and two more. Some of the sandtraps had big stones in them that would mess up you wedges so be careful. The staff was excellent. I can't complain about the price ($19), so you get what you pay for. I will not be going back.

Extremely Nice

Do yourself a favor and play this course. The course was extremely nice. People were friendly and pace was nice. The course is forgiving on some holes, but not all. Stay in the center and you should score nicely. You must get the ball in the air. Distances on the course were accurate. Greens were fast and have rolling hills!! :)

Staff was terrific

I was a single that was paired up with two regulars. I booked my tee time and later I had a time conflict, but the staff was terrific in allowing me to adjust my tee time. The greens were good and very true, but the remainder of the course was average at best. The fairways are zoysia and it had not fully come out for the year. I intend to play the course later to see if the fairways improve. The did not have a driving range.

Pace of play was sloooow!

They have done a nice job of fixing up the course it's looking better than I remember. The course itself was fine, my only recommendation would be yardage stakes! Pace of play on Wed. Afternoon was horrible! I was a single and joined up with the single behind me since the foursome in front of me wouldnt let me play through; worst part was it looked like they were teaching a member of their foursome how to play! Waiting on every tee box is no fun and kills any momentum in a round!

Nice course for a great price!

Course was in great condition for the value. Hot dog at the turn was delicious. Course was very busy on a Sunday, midday. Didn't see any marshalls and no beverage cart.

I like to colder weather

Played on 3/24 and Winter won't seem to let go. Sunny and about 45'ish and saw a great "Hot Deal" and figured I'd head out. Course was pretty bare, so I'll take that over a nicer course that's packed any day.

The course was in fair condition. They're evidently doing some renovations (adding stone, repaving cart paths), but Spring hasn't sprung yet, so the fairways were still brown.

Staff was nice, a bit disappointed I used GolfNow as opposed to calling them directly but hey...how did I know?

A nice, tight course that won't win any awards for how it looked when I played, but so what - I was playing golf on a Monday afternoon (and shot a 77). No complaints here.

Beats watching football

1 pm tee time, while Ravens & Redskins played. Nobody on the course, and the conditions were great! Always love playing this course. It is a wonderful layout, and staff is always accomodating.

Nice Course

Very challenging. All parts of course in great shape. Too bad it was so windy. Gusts over 35 mph for much of our round. Greens are fast and true.

Bay Hills with SMC friends

The staff in the pro shop was awesome. We had one golfer who had a function later that evening and the staff let us go off earlier than our tee time. The course was in great condition after receiving a large amount of rain the day before. Will play again.

Course showing it's age, but fun nonetheless

It's an older course, moderate elevation changes. A few bald spots in both tee boxes and fairway, but hey, it's October. Greens are fast and true. Fairways are tight, and there are quite a few blind shots, so it's worth it to scout ahead. We had no one behind us pushing which was good since there were two yahoos in front moving very slowly. No marshalls. Hit it straight. (since I can't)
