As always, Excellent Condition

Played the South course again. As usual, course is in excellent condition. Greens held shots and were fast.

For those who've never played it, this is a course in central Florida with "real" hills. (Not a couple of dump truck loads of dirt which are then called hills.) Very scenic...lots of people enjoy the views on this course.

Due to coronavirus time, no rakes in traps and a few other things. My rating of off course amenities is due to the restaurant closed for the time being.

Played a several times and always enjoy it. Course always in great condition, tee blocks, fairways, rough, and greens. Staff always very friendly and helpful. Very nice layout that is challenging and fair, especially if you select the proper tee blocks for your game. Will be back!!!

Great Course

Really nice layout with opportunities to hit all of your clubs in the bag. The traps need some white sand.

Pleasant Surprise

Course gave us the option of going out on the South Jovita instead of North Jovita. Although we like the North better, it was a nice change to golf the South. Course was in good shape and greens were fast and true. We will golf theNorth tomorrow.

Wonderful round

The course was in great shape and very enjoyable. The greens were nice but a little fast. The pace was perfect we played in 4 hours. The only criticism is their beverage cart service is poor.

Always in great shape

North Course

Used my golfnow plus rewards code, so the round was free.

At check in the guy said I owed 50$ for the round, but after I told him it should be pre paid, he said yeah, I see it now so not sure what that was about. Booked as a single but they said I'd be paired with others which is fine. The starter said if I wanted I could start at the 11th hole, and that I would be out ahead of the scramble that was starting and that worked out. Played in just over 2 hours until the last few holes.

Tees, fairways, and greens were all fine. Greens rolled smooth and fast. The layout is great, with great views and plenty of elevation changes.

A bit pricey in season but still it's a great course that never disappoints.
