Blue Monster

Awesome course layout, but conditions didn’t live up to expectations for a Top 100 public track.

Nice layout , tough course off gold tees with lots of water.

Maintenance work starts next week

Greens we true and very fast .

Much firmer and a lot faster than the 4 top rated courses played in Orlando this week .

You have to pay 14 dollars for parking and it’s a bit of a walk to the shop. Range is nice and the buggy came with Gps and some water in the cool box . Staff were friendly .

Hard course with a lot of plateau greens with steep banking and water close by .

One criticism is some of the fluffy grass just feet from the green / fringe is so deep it’s very easy to lose balls here .

Would happily play again and feel it was reasonable value for 100usd

Overpriced

This was my first time playing a trump golf course and it will be my last. I payed 175 for a morning t time on a Saturday. Showed up to the course and the staff were friendly and welcoming customer service was great over all. That conditions of the golf course were terrible. My local muni course is 45$ on a Saturday and it’s conditions are better. Fairways are brown. Tee boxes are too short and mostly sand. Greens are covered in sand anytime you hit a green you see a splash of sand. I have played some really beautiful courses before in Phoenix, Tucson, and Nashville and they all had me wanting to come back and play even tho they are expensive. However this was not worth it what so ever.

Difficult but Enjoyable

I approached my round with some trepidation after reading this site, specifically with respect to the parking and bag drop situation. Fortunately, these were not issues as valet parking took care of the car and delivered my clubs to the cart area. All I had to do was exit the car and walk downstairs to check in.

This is a long and difficult course with sand traps and water hazards everywhere. It is a tough but fair layout that was quite a joy to play. Conditions were hot but the course was in excellent shape, though the greens were a bit slower than you might expect.

A friend of mine had acquired passes for out foursome to play so I can't comment on the price. We did get an exceptional fore caddie (Juan) and tipped him well. Given the length of the rough, he found several balls that we were not likely to have been found.

After the round we had a fairly expensive and tasty lunch in the clubhouse,

If you ever get a chance to play the Blue Monster, take it. It is an experience I still think about fairly often.
