Very good value
12 hcp. Visiting from MA. Greens were nice only a few spots, that really impressed me. Fairways were average but I’ve paid more $$ and got worse conditions. I would hold off playing right after heavy rains. Can be damp in spots
Other than pace of play it was a fun course with lots of different birds
Plantation is a beautiful Golf course
Played as a foursome. Staff was very friendly, and the course was in very good condition. Greens were spectacular. This is a natural beautiful course. Holes were somewhat challenging. One of the better courses for the price in this area.
Only minor issue was hole signage. Needs to be more of this signage to direct you to the proper hole.
excellent layout, fast and great challenging greens
fairways quite brown but good for this time of year
Plantation golf ourse
Overall the course was ok. Some really long holes. The Starter didn’t seem too friendly but that was his personality I guess. We could not find hole number two hole it was a not clearly indicated.
The fairways were just ok. However the greens were in excellent shape and very puttable except for one.
We were disappointed that when we got back to the Clubhouse at 4:30 the kitchen was closed 🤷♂️ For the day. We had a couple beers no food. The waitress was very friendly.
To top it all off my brothers clubs were stolen from the bag drop area after the round.
Overall I would not hurry back. I live an hour away and there are better courses closer to me. For the value it fit. Not complaining just reality.
Great Pace of play
We played the round in 3 1/2 hours which is great. The weather was perfect and the course was in good condition.
Great value
Very nice layout, greens excellent, great price through Golfnow, but…$8.50 for a mixed drink at the turn
I was shocked at poor condition. Of course. Was much better last year...very little grass...greens in rough shape
Good value
Course is fun to play but EXTREMELY difficult to navigate from hole to hole. Got lost and had to backtrack 3 times. Some additional well placed signs would easily fix the problem.
Worse round out of over 30 times I played there
Teed off at 1 pm. A foursome in front of us (2 of us) we average in the low 90. No body in front of the foursome for 3 holes, we almost skipped a hole to get a head of them. We waited and waited, never was ask to play thru, worse I have ever seen. The last 3 holes we just had enough and picked up and went home. I will always call Plantation will always be my home course because I live in Pretty Springs, but a ranger cruising around would have been nice.
