Course is Over Priced

No complaints about course condition or staff. The course was in good condition, but we played other courses nearby that were better. St Johns Country Club was the best course we played, and we payed less than half what we payed at WGV. I guess we payed for the name but will not do it again.

King and Bear Nice Layout and Great Condition

Enjoyed playing the King and Bear and personally believe the layout is more interesting than the Squire and Slammer course with water coming into play on many of the holes. I've played both courses and believe paying a little more to play the King and Bear is definitely worth it. The apples on ice on 1st and 10th holes is a nice treat in the hot summer weather as well. The only thing I experienced that could not be considered positive was the fact I bought a hat in the clubhouse and found an additional charge on the receipt for resort fee that I thought was kind of cheesy.
Just figured it would be better for the consumer to show that in the original price rather than including it as a surprise. Course is maintained at a high level with consistent fast greens throughout. The staff is very accommodating and the cart service around the course is timely.

Well Designed

Played before, but I met up with 3 guys who were fun to play with. Tough course if you get off of the fairways. Greens fast and true

short duration between tee times

Made the trip out for a Tuesday hoping for a smooth round. Being a hot Florida day, there were several groups getting out early, I was shocked at the short duration between tee times, i believe 9 min. Given the price, i would have expected more.
Course was in great shape, fairways and greens. Landing areas were friendly, then tightening up with few run up opportunities as i expected from a Nicklaus design.

Excellent Day at King and Bear

We were made very welcome on arrival, despite our booking overlapping with their Ladies Member Guest tournament. Course was in great shape from tee to green. We had to skip one hole to by pass the Ladies shoot out - Very politely explained and we were invited to complete the hole later - complimentary drinks and sandwiches were provided for us - a really excellent day
Thank you we will be back soon

Disappointing Greens

The greens were very disappointing. To spend a $100 or more for 18 holes, the greens need to be in much better shape for early April in N. FLA!

Bucket List Course

Course is in beautiful condition.
Loved apple on 1st hole. There were suppose to be some on the tenth hole also but there were none!
If you are an average golfer do not challenge some of the water carries.

Just good, but nothing really outstanding

We wanted to play it, as we have heard a lot about it. It is a nice course in mostly very good condition, but to me it is not worth the two hours drive from Orlando. The place is overall in very good condition, T-boxes, fairways, bunkers and greens very mostly very good. But somehow it did not convince me a something very special. The layout is just – well – just a golf course – no hole was really breathtaking. The service was very good out there. As it was rather cold, the beverage cart girl was clever enough to offer hot coffee…

Service and condition wise a nice place, but to me it is not worth this high rate they ask…

Excellent driving range

For a resort course, I've played better. The fairways were excellent but the green speed was a little slow for my liking, probably around 9 on the stimp. Never saw a ranger or a beverage cart on the front nine. Took almost 5 hours to play. Our foursome waited on nearly all the tee boxes.

Course is in great shape

Each hole offered a different look. The fairways are wide open as this is a Resort Course. The greens are difficult - multiple levels on each green, and the back of several greens slope away, so multiple shots at the pins rolled off the green. Greens are on 4 to 6 feet pedestals, so chips are critical. Overall , I had a great time. Fairways the greens are in very good condition.

Somewhat disappointing

It appeared that most of the players on the course were average handicappers. Most were playing from the White tees. Possibly for the lower handicappers with the extended tee boxes, the course would be more interesting. I found it sadly lacking any real creative design or challenge. Did not ever see a "signature" type hole. Greens were pretty average in design and difficulty. I just recently played all the courses at Grand Cypress. This lay-out was pretty tame compared to those lay-outs and greens.
