Nice course

Great layout. Lots of water in play. Fairway grass was long but playable. Probably not enough time since over-seeding Greens were in great shape.

Starter was amazing, too bad the course wasn't as good.

No driving range. About half the greens had bad patches making putting difficult. Landscaping crews on the course had no idea they were in the way. They claim the flooding caused poor course conditions, the big flood happened 9ish months ago, plenty of time to get back in shape.

The starter was the bright spot of the whole day. Very knowledgeable and friendly.

Overall, disappointed with the course.

Good Value for your Money

The course still needs a lot of work. The greens were very rough and patchy. The fairways needed to be better seated. There is a lot of dry patchy spots in the fairway. I know the season just started for receding, but still needed a lot of work.

Recovering from the Flood nicely

My golf app had the front nine as the back nine, and I wish it had been right! The first hole was fun and forgiving, but most of the rest of the front had water all over and 3” tall ground cover where there weren’t ponds in the way. On the plus side, my golf bag was a lot lighter by the 10th hole!

The back was literally a walk in the park … until the 17th, which involved a 160 yard carry over the last pond. It was longer if you hit it left. Not a good time to hit a lazy draw…

Pick another course

Front nine was horrible. Weeds rough were overgrown and not cared for properly. Greens in poor shape. Few greens had extensive hydrolic oil leak lines preventing a accurate putting line. Back nine was alittle better. Don't waste your tee fees.

Older course

The course had some damage from the hurricane on hole number ten. The greens were good. The fairways were parched. Can't imagine what it's like to play in the summer. The price we paid was a bargain and worth it.
