On the road to recovery

This course was hit hard by hurricane Ian two years ago. It is still recovering and won’t be at 100% for a while. The positives are that the greens are terrific, the nature is everywhere, the staff is wonderful and the location is beautiful.

Great Friendly Staff

This beautiful little course took a beating from recent hurricanes. Drew and his staff do all they can to make the experience pleasant and are extremely honest about the problems with the fairways ever since hurricane/ salt water damage. The greens are beautiful and the layout challenges you to strategize every shot. Be patient and understanding… I am certain they will do everything to hasten it’s recovery!

It could be great, but hurricanes suck

This course was decimated by the hurricane and has not fully recovered. It's a nice layout with friendly staff. Many of the fairways are barren of grass. A few of the greens are bumpy and in rough shape. Currently no water, ice or cold drinks. Once they recover this course is beautiful with its surroundings.

Good round of golf. The course is still struggling to rebound from hurricane couple of years ago (mainly some areas in fairways), but still very playable & challenging. If you're expecting pristine conditions, you'll have to go much further inland to a course that wasn't' flooded with saltwater. I'd love to play it again sometime when it gets back to pristine conditions. Lots of water to get into trouble, over swinging will cost you on this course. Play smart and you'll have great time.

Wait!!!

Super nice people at this course but after the hurricane damage they received it needs to be closed for a few months until repairs are done. A lot of the fairways are more bare than have grass and the grass that's there is bad. The greens look to be brand new and growing in and are very bumpy because they aren't fully grown in. Definitely not worth anywhere the $95 we paid and yes I did see the warning but did not expect it to be that bad. Once it's repaired this course would be awesome to play

Great Course and Challenging.

The course has come a long way since going through 3 or 4 hurricanes that put it completely underwater. It is a fun course to play and Drew is great to his customers.

I highly recommend playing this course; you will have fun and also enjoy seeing the local wildlife.
