A fun course

Our first time playing this course. Hole number on is the toughest hole. Put the driver away and stay right of center. Greens in good condition with moderately fast speed. Fairways generous in landing zones so you can be comfortable playing driver on most 4&5’s. Good pace of play. I will play there again

Great course and pace was fine. After playing south in over 5 hours happy with under 4 hours. Greens fast but fair. Must’ve employee problems because some sand traps need physical labor. We will be back

Old Hoosiers

Disappointed . Heard nice things about this place and not up to standards. Sand traps need sand plus some physical labor. A 5 hour plus around is unexceptionable, no ranger in site. Waiting on every tee shot after the first three holes makes a long day.

Love the course but bunkers were unplayable

Overall this is a nice course with a nice layout, however, I was surprised that all of the bunkers on the north course were full of water and you could see the tremendous ruts that were in them. I would’ve liked to of seen them pumped out and raked. Other than that it was a very enjoyable round.

Lake Jovita North Course

The course was great. Our tee time was delayed a bit. We had to wait on the groups in front of us all day but still finished in a reasonable time. The course was fantastic. Lots of fun to play. Greens were very fast and challenging but manageable. Absolutely one of the best courses in the area. Also it is not flat and boring like most Florida courses. Highly recommended if you can get it at a reasonable price.

Worth the drive

I drove to Lake Jovita from Orlando which was about 1 1/2 hour away. I would do it again and maybe get the north course in.
