Fun Course

It’s very open, Florida Links style. The course is in good shape and the staff is great. It’s a great value and worth the drive to Crystal River.

A goat pasture

I NEVER leave reviwws .Ever ! But had to save other people the trip and money for a visit to this pasture . Absolutely the worst golf course in Central Florida...14 holes looked the same .tee boxes with no grass, fairways with no grass...greens are terrible..

You've been warned .

Slowwww play

Love this course due to weather conditions cart path only could have been contributor to slow play. Four men in front of three women myself single and two men behind. We would all be on the same stretch of whole waiting. Unusual for this course I enjoyed the beautiful weather but could hear complaints from others. Can not wait to play this course again.

JUST OK

The fairways were more sand than grass and made fore very hard approach shots. The greens were just ok. Wouldn’t recommend if you are looking for a good time.

Friendly course

The moderate golfer should play from the golf tees. The back tees are a challenge.

9 hole

some of the greens very very nice. How ever got lost a few times due to lack of signage. Many of the concrete paths were in tough shape.

I would definitely try Executive Course.
