Golf Now rate allowed me to enjoy a great course.
I love this course. Its long, wide, and challenging. It was really wet when I played so it wasn't at its best and it played even longer. But the greens were soft and smooth with a reasonable pace. I played Slammer & Squire the day before and its greens have not yet recovered from aeration. Normally, I don't get to play K&B because of the rate. Thank you Golf Now for providing me an affordable rate.
Wonderful Course to Play
I cannot give a high enough rating to the staff of this golf course. Everyone I met was incredibly friendly and eager to assist in any way. The golf course was in beautiful condition even though it was a little wet due to recent rain. It still played beautifully though. The greens rolled very true and the fairways and bunkers were immaculate. I will definitely be returning to this course on my next visit to the Jacksonville area.
Nice, but not quite what I expected
Very nice course but I wouldnt call it (Pristine), the staff was super friendly, but the greens just were not what we expected. You could tell that the greens had been punched at least a month prior and they had still had not fully recovered from it. They were bumpy and you could still see some holes with sand in them, there were however very few bare spots on the greens. The fairways were all in good shape and the bunkers were about 50/50, some were soft (like they should be) and others were like concrete. But a 5 Star to the staff, they were super friendly. We actually arrived about 2 hours early and the starter told us he had an opening in about 15 minutes and that we could go ahead and go out if we wanted to, and since this is Florida we took it since there is always a chance of rain in the afternoon. I cant wait to go play King and the Bear next.
Very interesting course!
We were met promptly in the parking lot & had assistance from that point until we were delivered back to our car after our round. The course played well even though it is still recovering from overseeding the greens. The course is challenging for me but the holes are very interesting. Oh, yes, I love the apples at #1 & #10 tees.
Great fun course
Good compliment to King and Bear down the road. Truly enjoyed every hole!
The best greens I have ever seen!!
Breathtaking and very fun course ton play. Even though the pace of the course was slowed down by weather my friends and I had an unforgettable time playing this course. Superb experience!!
Nice atmosphere, not a course I would pay $100 to play again
Nice course, not extremely difficult. I think the premium price is because its in World Golf Village. Save your $$ and play somewhere more challenging for less $$
This was the last course on a vacation, and the least liked by my friend and myself. We played TPC TrevisoBay, Old Corkscrew, The Rookery at Marco, and Disney's Lake Buena Vista, all were less money, and more challenging and enjoyable
Disappointed
Greens were terrible. I was Told they were punch 2 weeks ago
played and looked as if they just completed the job. The reason
for empty holes throughout the greens was from heavy rains
soon after the holes were punched. They could not return to the greens and over sand , they had TWO weeks!!!! . The greens were impossible to putt on.
Great Course
Would recommend this course to anyone visiting the World Golf Hall of Fame.
it is a nice course
they should have told me about greens i first booked bear saw that greens were just airrated so they put me on squire same thing
Course had just been aerated, but otherwise really enjoyed it
First time playing this course, and really enjoyed it. The greens and some fairways had just been aerated, but other than those areas the course was in great condition. It's a very playable course for amateurs and makes for some great scoring chances.
Great Layout
They had just punched the greens ten days earlier, so still a little bumpy. Gave reduced price coupon in recognition. Very nice place to play.
Great Course
Enjoyed my round on a well maintained course. The King and Bear was worth the wait.
Not at this time
Played on Sat May 25. Greens were just pluged. 20 percent of the holes not filled with sand. Was not told when making tee time.
This course is always in great shape but right now it is not. Maybe three weeks from now it will fill out and be back in shape.
Great course and friendly staff
Even though the course had been recently maintained it was in great shape. The fairways were in excellent shape and not much trouble to get into The staff is very friendly and and when out of their way to make sure we were pleased.
Well maintained course-excellent greens
Would recommend. Different tees allow various handicaps to play at their level. It is a good value at $89 rate, but not $169. Very cordial staff and good warmup facilities. Enjoyed very much.
Ice Cold Apples!
Played 6,100 yards. Very Fair. WYSIWYG. No hidden hazards. Greens in great condition. Loved the Ice Cold Apples in the Barrel at the turn.
Greens roll true
Played the King and Bear late last year and had been looking forward to the Slammer. Fairways mowed tight and ball got very good roll. Greens in very good condition. Traps had adequate sand. Not as scenic as the King and Bear. Ok value with the discount. In my opinion, not worth the retail price.
Well trained staff & well maintained
The course @ 6132 yds.from blue and rated at 69.2/121 seems a little easy for 10/12 HDCP. The longest par 3 was 161 yds. I suggest some players move to the black tees at 6660 yds. For a more challenging round.
Range, towels amenities were good. They do have apples on #1 & 10, get them early. They do not replenish , we asked when barrel empty. Staff and cart guys helpful.
The course is definitely a resort layout, in better then good shape. Speed of play really slowed on the back 9, and we saw no Apparent reason for it. No GPS, which I prefer, they usually slow down play with players walking back and forth to look at the screen again. The sprinkler heads are so well defined with Front, middle & back you don't need it.
If you don't get to play well maintained courses much this is one to play, only on a deal. Hot Deal @ $79.00 was steep I thought. It's more in the $40/$50 range.
Lots of interesting designed holes
We decided to play the White tees which measure just under 6000 yards. The Blues play at just under 6600. That would have been a bit much for some of us. Wish they had a set of tees somewhere in between. Course was in very good shape, but I wouldn't call it "pristine", especially the greens. I thought they were a little bit slow, probably due to a recent aeration. They were playable though. The green fee is steep; however, we got a discounted rate via golfnow.com. Issue is that the number of available discounted tee times is very limited, and the earliest was late morning.
