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.

not worth the drive

Course was in poor shape. Weather was raining which made it a tougher track.

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)

decent golf

Good price for a hot deal but the course was packed. The course itself is nice and has a great setting but the pace of the course was poor.

Much Improved

I have seen dramatic improvements with this course over the last several years. The greens are great and some of the best in the area.

Keep up the Great Work!

Nice layout

My brother and I only play golf together a few times a year and this course was fun to play even with some tight spots. Only one par 5 so the course is on the short side. On a busy Sunday morning course was full but play was moving along nicely. Recommend for locals and visitors alike. I travelled from Southeast Virginia and it was worth the drive.

Very poor customer service

Our threesome was charged three different rates. After showing the receipts and asking for a refund, I was told the $51.00 I paid was correct and the other two were mistakes. Too bad for me. Terrible customer service. I will never come back! Not a good value anyway, and the staff behind the counter could care less about the customers.

Fun course

First time I've played Bay Hills in years and it was in great shape. The only downside was the greens were being airrated. The staff was very friendly.

7 hour round :/

Did not mention they were airrading the greens until after we paid. They then continued to tell us the back 9 was closed and everyone would play the front 9 twice(really well thought out) food was average. Service good. Don't play this course unless you have a solid 8-10 window available to play 18 holes

Very Impressed

Played on a Saturday morning, don't normally do that at Bay Hills due to pace of play issues in the past. Got around in just over 4 hours. Ranger was very attentive and polite. great price for a Saturday morning. Course conditions were really good. Best greens I have played all year. I have played here on and off for 10 years and there have been many improvements here in the past several years. normally I play renditions, compass, glenn dale... I will be playing here more frequently this fall for sure.

Tight Fairways, Tight Groupings

Simplified version since previous review closed and was lost.

Played this course for over 20 years. Good course that challenges players to try to keep it in the fairway.

The course has always had issues with jamming more players in than it can handle, causing long tee waits.

Bay Hills always offers good deals and offers for drinks and gear.

Holes 11, 12, and 13 can sometimes be like shooting fish in a barrel if there's a large amount of golfers on the course.
