On the Mend

A very fun course for intermediate golfers.

A number of fairways are still showing significant damage from hurricanes, requiring lateral moves to put the ball on some grass. That said, the greens were very good and we really enjoyed our round.

One note if you are coming from the mainland: allow about an extra hour and 15 to cross the causeway which is under repair.

Beautiful gator filled track

Green are in great shape and roll true. The fairways are still a little rough and recovering from the hurricanes. Well worth the drive to help support the incredible staff while they continue to work on full recovery. I recommend playing!

All thing considered

All things considered with damage from storms, the greens were perfect the tees were in good shape, damage to the fairways there was always a drop close enough not to effect you that much. Great layout had a lot of fun staff was amazing and upfront about damage, I booked thru golf now and they sent me a text to make sure again I knew about the damage even after phone call when they already explained the damage. Can’t wait to play again.

The staff is excellent and the course is fun. Greens are in great condition. Most of the fairways are good or recovered from the hurricane with just a few of them still with large areas of damage due to the hurricanes. Still a good time and we really appreciated the friendly staff.

Course recovering

You can tell under "normal" conditions this course is a very nice one. Recovering from the two hurricanes has certainly affected the course condition. Greens were in quite good shape. Lift/clean with the ball, and moving from muddy (sea-shell laden) areas to playable fairway areas made it a positive experience.

Staff is very accommodating. They are still recovering from Hurricane Ian and the grounds still have areas needing time to recover from the damage from the sea & salt.

Still in recovery mode from hurricane

Course is still definitely in recovery mode from hurricane 2 years ago. Fairways are half mud half grass. Greens are recovering but still very slow and pin positions are often on side of a slope to make course seem more difficult. Carts are gas and in decent shape. Clubhouse still in rebuild mode. Bar is under construction. Can get beer and soft drinks if you ask at front desk. Sprinklers were on when we got to 10 but they didn't turn off until we were done the hole. Definitely a work in progress.

Overall good time and staff was awesome

The course and amenities were not good over all but what would and should you expect after back to back hurricanes. Anyone who would not understand this would be foolish to do so. This is Florida and if you haven’t experienced a hurricane then don’t judge conditions harshly when seeing the aftermath. The repair and rebuild proceed is certainly not a fast one. Drew on staff was absolutely awesome and could not have been more helpful and kind during the entire time present. The play was not fast, in fact the back nine was extremely slow with a foursome and young child in tow. Other than that one item, it was a great time.
