Course under water par 5 and 2 cart path only

This is one of my favorite courses in town, I love it.

I just wish when booking they would let you know about the course conditions or an alert on the website. In addition, we were sold driving range

Buckets of balls, but the driving range was still

closed by the time of our tee time so we ate the

cost of buckets of balls.The attendant came late to open the ball machine.

Beautiful Day at Panther Lake OCN

What a facility! From the time you get unloaded at the bag drop and take a look around you know you’ve made a fine choice. Giant pro shop with many great clothing options. Second to none practice facilities. It becomes clear why multiple tours have held events at this property. Comfortable electric carts with GPS. A+ conditions on the course (there is a small patch still recovering from Hurricane Milton…. They temporarily had to turn a par 5 into a par 3). Worth being a top pick for any golf trip.

OCN is recovery from Milton but slowy

OCN is a very typical golf course that I do like.

Still a lot of water on lower lands, shorting a magnific par 5 on Panther Lake.

Sad to say , but other choices come into play.

So , I was live n gon Space Coast and I did try more East Coast golf, and we found very nice golf course.

Crooked Cat. Must play

We’ve played this course probably 15 times and it never fails to disappoint. Every staff member is friendly and helpful. Course was a in excellent shap. Greens read true and run about 10 on the scale. Love that. Hate to bang putt. Overall it was 6 stars.

Great Layout

First time playing Crooked Cat. Greens in great shape! Unusual high amount of brown spots in the fairways with dry spots throughout. Staff was friendly at the bag drop, but starter at 1st hole was rude and didn’t care if I was there or not. On personal cell phone the whole time. I would recommend this course for anyone, beginner or low handicaper,

OCN

Please be aware for at least the rest of October, that if you sign up to play Panther Lake, because of the recent storms there is still standing water on the front 9. You will likely start on #10 of Crooked Cat and then play the back 9 on Panther Lake. FYI, the back 9 on Crooked Cat is difficult. Other than that the course was in pretty good shape considering the storms.

Great course

Je recommande ce terrain pour le layout, sont degrés difficulté et la qualité du parcours.

Seul bémol , le parcours est un peu long et vraiment difficile pour les femmes qui frappent moins de 170 verges avec un driver

Great course, great location

We love playing Crooked Cat. Given the hurricane just came thru, this course drained very well. It is always in great shape.
