Dissapointing

Course was in poor shape, greens were bare in spots and overall not looked after. Staff was very unfriendly from the starter to the guy at the hallway hub who couldn’t be bothered to even say hi. Very slow play and no Marshall on the course throughout the day. Just not worth it.

Maintenance

Many of the greens were in bad shape with grass missing and very hard. some had divots/ lumps so putting accuracy was challenged.

Significant fairway turf problems and many soggy areas

worst I've seen it in quite some time

played this course about a half dozen times.. normally in good shape and fun to play but the grass was struggling everywhere, especially the greens which was really disappointing. weather was perfect for late April so not sure why the course was in such rough shape. was definitely not worth the $110 price tag.

Course seen better days

The pace was great but the greens are in pretty bad shape. Most of the greens have lots of dirt patches on them and the pin placements were either in between or just to the side of the dirt patches. Really surprised because the fairways were in better shape. Overall, it was a fun day.

Meh

Bit of a goat ranch. Greens were a disappointment. Fairways were a coin flip relative to finding grass. Overall the value wasn't there for the price

The greens are by far the worst I’ve ever played! Diseased or something, not sure. Almost unplayable.

Nice course, terrible greens !!!

First time playing Orange tree. Ok layout, nice fairways, bunkers and amenities…… no sugar coating the fact that the greens are terrible!! Several dead, dirt patches on most greens making them unplayable for the most part. Won’t be back until they get the greens back.

Our round

We bought a hot deal from golf now so our fees were great. The pro shop and course is behind the facade of stores and resort stays so it doesn’t feel like you have just pulled up to a golf course BUT the staff from the pro shop to starters rangers cart girl and food at the turn are outstanding!

Greens were in bad shape but playable. Wife and I both enjoyed the round and would play again

Need to work on greens

Loved the old school layout. I understand because of the extreme heat & lack of rain the greens took a beating which was quite apparent.
