I'm offended by the price
The gentleman in the pro shop was nice but it was downhill from there. The range was a mess, range balls caked with dirt, and course in need of care outside of the greens. I've NEVER complained about greens fees, but at $60 each they should be embarrassed. Caveat emptor.
Greens good, rest okay
I played this course for the first time in six years as I always played World Woods while passing through, but with WW under construction and $400 green fees coming that's no longer an option. Greens are in good enough shape and fairways are okay, not great. However, the course has a run down look and some of the turf is not good. Plantation, here's what you should do: Spend $5 million to completely rebuild the course, clubhouse and villas. With the way golf is booming and with people pouring into the area, this investment will pay off in spades. Do it. You have a gem of a layout and this will make this a true golf destination.
Greens are always in great shape
Teed off at 1:06 on 3/24. Pace of play was awesome. Fairways need grass but all the courses are like this due to a lack of rain the past few months. Tee boxes are pretty.
Carts are awesome, brand new.
Fun course
Very fun layout … greens very good, fairways just ok due to obvious lack of rain … definitely play it you will enjoy
Long course Bring your Driver !
Played Sunday March 26 for the first time . This is a long course so be prepared . Lots of 400 yard plus holes and lots of fairway shots of over 200 yards plus . I really liked this course for the shear fact it was LONG .. so many golf courses under $30 dollars are short mostly IRONS type but not here .. open golf course with very few trees but what a great day to let loose and get out those fairway woods . Fairways were very nice and the greens were great . This was a fun course and I was totally caught off guard by all 18 holes and those manicured fairways .. I will be back .. CAN'T WAIT !
Good greens
Course was in its typical shape, greens are always in very good, consistent condition. Fairways are a little void of grass in a lot of areas, but playable,. Tee boxes are better than the fairways, pace of play at a starting time of 1pm is great.
Plantation, great value, needs rain
Played the Plantation course for first time while visiting Crystal River/Homossasa Springs. Decent Layout, good mix of left and right doglegs, good par threes. Fairways could use some grass but there’s been no rain. Greens were in very good condition putting smooth and quick on downhills.
I live in Tallahassee and meet a friend at this golf course once a year. I have never been disappointment. I highly recommend it.
