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.
Much improvement
Play here at least once or twice per year. It started to improve last year and it was greatly improved this season. Traps were much better sand, Greens were full. There is grass which is hard to find in the winter in Florida. Nice new pins. Staff has changed thier attitude as well to a much more friendly atmosphere.
Mostly overly wet after a rain
Many restrictions to remain on cart paths due to an overly saturated course the day before. Used the “no see em” spray sold at the clubhouse but was bitten mercilessly anyways. The course is a jewel if it hasn’t rained previously.
great
people very nice. everything was great. if you,ve never played make the trip up.
