The juice isn’t worth the squeeze

I booked on GolfNow and I am still unclear how much I paid. Stated price was $135 for a Tuesday afternoon but I think all in it was closer to $150. For reference I paid half that at a beautiful course in Waverly GA on Monday on the way down. Overpriced in my opinion. There were a lot of positives but for the cost I cannot justify more than 3 stars. Talking about stars, the staff were all-stars. From the clubhouse, to the starter, to the marshals - all gentlemen. Genuinely nice, concerned, and honest - when questioned lol. One witnessed a 175 yd 7-iron 2nd shot that landed - and firmly bounced OFF the green. Watching me skull a 56 back over the green added insult to injury. I’m a 15 so we both laughed. Point being, the greens are terrible. Sometimes cart path only is necessary. However, when every drive plugs and every GIR bounces off the green aggressively there’s a problem. The green speeds were consistent except for 9 and 18. Both slow. Layout was pretty cool. Lots of water. Usually I hit OB 1-3 times and miss greens. Today I hit greens that ricocheted into the rough. One landed center green and rolled OB. I like the idea of the course. The houses around the course were beautiful- it’s like the course didn’t belong because it wasn’t as nice. No GPS in carts was a little weird too considering the clubhouse looks like it should be on Hilton Head or Sea Island. Lots of reviews complain about resort fees and cc fees. The $13 is annoying but balls bouncing off greens and plugging in every fairway was a bigger problem for me. I like the name and idea of this course but the hype doesn’t justify the cost. If I wasn’t passing through I’d gamble on less known courses. I hope you enjoy the review.

WET!!!

This must be Aquaman’s home course. Everything is wet. Cart path only for the entire course. On top of that, only members are allowed to walk, so don’t bring a push cart and expect to be able to use it. My shoes were soaked after 3 holes. Very disappointing for the price. I know we’ve had a little rain recently, but this is Florida where it rains almost every day. If you decide to play here, remember to bring a bathing suit and 3 pairs of golf shoes, you’ll need them.

There was a fivesome in front of us and the marshal said he would try to move them along but did not. The staff at the pro shop was great. Greens bumpy from aeration and fairways. If the group with five would have been addressed the round would have been less than 5 hours.

Meh

Course it self was in good shape for the most part, the greens though are still healing from a fresh punching and fairways punched. not worth $115 for punched greens. Maybe next season.

Overall very pleased

The course was in fantastic shape, the staff did warm me prior to the start of round that the greens are very firm and they were not kidding, it was very challenging to hold a ball on the green, but other than that the course was in great shape. The staff were super friendly and helpful.

Down hill

Course used to be amazing. Not a military friendly course anymore, they charge a resort fee. ITS NOT A RESORT, staff is put out by driving you from parking lot, bar closes at 1650, at least 12 people outside wanting drinks. Cart girl was seen one time in 18 holes. Place has gone DOWN HILL!!!!

+ turnaround

The course conditions have greatly improved over the last several weeks, as it was very poor several months ago. The fairways and the greens are in great shape, just on the shaggy/ slow side. There are a few shabby tee boxes that could really use some work/ grass.

Total let down

Can’t believe they charged $169 bucks to play with the conditions the way they are. Not worth it at all, stay away until conditions improve especially at the price points they are trying to charge.

Undisclosed "Resort Fee"

The course was fine. But my total cost was $87.81, not the reservation confirmation amount of $84.13 with most of the difference being an undisclosed "resort fee". If a course charges a resort fee, it should either be shown as a separate line item, or be added to the "Total Greens Fees". Do better, be honest in your pricing. Also charging 3% for using a credit card is just tacky.
