Just what we needed
Came to FL from snowy New England and needed a course to play a round to start the season. This was a good course for that.
Fairways level, greens in great shape, and forgiving on errant shots on most holes.
Staff very pleasant.
Plantation On Crystal River
Over all good course but wet every time I have play. I alway's have mud between the club and the ball. The greens are fast and unpredicable hard time reading the putt. Maybe just me.
good course conditions
Vary strange hole layout but excellent condition. Greens fast and rolled great. Some very short par 4's but also some lengthy ones.
Plantation on Crystal River Golf Course
Had a great time on this course except that after the rains for a couple of days, it was very wet and soft (not the courses fault).
Improving the Course
I'd heard The Plantation was undergoing improvements, after being somewhat neglected a few years back. The course was in good shape. The layout of some holes can be confusing, for the first time playing there. There is plenty of water, as well as tee shots to narrow fairways. Overall, all eight of us enjoyed the course.
Terrible waiting for continue playing
I won't play this course again.
Very poor condition of the court.
Very bad indicated. Not amusing!
Great course great value
Course was very wet from 2 inches of rain the day before but was still in great shape . Looking forward to playing it again
Great Vakue
I went in with low expectations due to the price I paid but was very surprised. Very fun course with great greens.
short course but very tight and challenging
Staff was very friendly, course was fun and the location was nice
Good Course with nice layout , do not play when wet.
Unfortunately we played the course the day after a soaking rain shower and the course does not drain well. We were first off and played cart paths only so I cannot gauge pace of play for this course. When we are in the area again we will make sure to return for another round. My wife and I did like the layout and the staff was very nice..We went into the restaurant after our round for a light lunch and were pleasantly surprised by how good the burgers were..Again a very accommodating and friendly staff, and a nice layout.
Flooded
As I grew up playing this course, I have played many times over the years. Unfortunately most of the holes have standing water on them. If they didn't, the fairways were saturated. I am hopeful that the staff turns around the course. This used to be the center of golf in Crystal River. Maybe one day it will be again.
Course should have been closed
Upon arriving at the course I was told that it would be cart path only.. Under statement..It should have been closed. The entire course was under water. Cart paths had several inches of rain water on them making them almost impassable. If I could have I would have asked for my money back. To be fair I have played this course when it was dry. Great layout, fun course.
Christmas in Florida
Played with a couple from Michigan. Had a great time. Cart path only due to wet conditions from the 3 or 4 inches of rain they received over the weekend. Course was closed on the previous Monday. Otherwise the course was in good condition. Greens were firm and fast. Everyone working on Christmas day was very friendly and helpful. Thanks to all of them for sacrificing their time on such a family holiday. Ate lunch their and although it was restricted the burgers and fries were excellent. With cart paths only we had lots of exercise.
Fun Course
A little wet after the rain but still great golf. Not busy so the pace was excellent.
great wild life
This is a flat cours . A little confusing in early holes as to where to g . Great wildlife on the course . Gators, a variety of birds, variety if turtles, Smaller greens. Decent course.
Plant 11-28
The course was average. Play was tough as the weather was cold.
Great course and the price was great also
The course was in very good condition both fairways and greens. A course that I will play multiple times.
Great Deal!
This course was in great shape after having TONS of rain the day before. Usually a wet course, it really was in great shape. Greens were a little hairy, but excellent condition.
Nice track, great greens.
Paired up with a Grand Father, Father and Son, three generations. It was great, those guys were so fun, even if the course was terrible I believe I would of had a great time. Instead the course was in nice shape. The tee boxes had grass and were somewhat level. The fairways were nicely maintained. And the greens were great, some undulations, a little fast but they all putted true. If you are in Citrus County and have a chance check this place out you won't be disappointed.
great time
Our foursome had a great time. The weather was cool but sunny and the ball didn't carry as much as usual but that didn't stop from really enjoying ourselves.
I would recommend this course to anyone that ask's me. Looking forward to playing it again
