Great day of golf at Regatta Bay

Last minute decision to play golf and Regatta Bay had good availability. The staff was very friendly, especially the starter. Range balls included was nice, and the course was in fantastic condition, tee to green. Generous fairways on the front 9, and lots of water on the back 9 gave two different challenges, but not severe penalties for slightly errant tee shots. Great value!!

Clearly a misunderstanding here. We haven't changed leadership in any way and we welcome single all the time, every day, all day long. I regret that you came away with these impressions and would be happy to discuss it further any time. Feel free to give me a call on 704 575 2060 whenever convenient for you.

Stop taking singles in afternoon

Used to be a pretty nice place to get 9 or 18 holes in later in the afternoon. They stopped that for some reason which is actually fine. I would suggest Kelly Plantation and Indian Bayou all better tracks and you can book easily as a single. Regatta is kinda a mess with yet another leadership change with this new hair brain idea.

Great day

The only comment that I have is that 2 times during the round. Maintenance carts drive right through. Once when we were putting and once when we were on the tee box. They just kept driving the entire length of the hole while we waited. The really should be taught to stop and wait for the golfers.

Amazing Experience

Top notch course. Amazing staff, well stocked pro shop, and great bar. They have a great driving range, balls are included with the tee time price, as well as a putting and chipping green. Well maintained course with amazing greens. The course and the surrounding area is beautiful. Would recommend if you have the money, any hot deal times just make it an even better value.

Fun course layout but not a great value

Course layout was fun. It was in pretty good shape except for the recently punched greens. Rental clubs were in fair shape but for the price of rental it would be nice to include a sleeve of balls and a towel. Course had been sprayed with a green dye that was difficult to clean off our hands.

golf on a rainy day

Four straight days of rain. Course was a bit soggy. The greens had been punched 10-11 days before our round. We were made aware of that prior to making our tee time. The greens rolled good and fairways were very playable. The ruff was tough. We will play any time we get back to N W Florida
