Beautiful but Slow

Gorgeous course and layout but waiting 5to 10 minutes on every hole to tee off sucked. Aged 7 1/2 of our 18 holes and left due to over crowding and slow play.

Indian Mounds

Great staff, it’s the reason I’ve been coming back for 30 years.

You have worked wonders with the golf courses

Over the years

Thanks for your efforts.

Really fun course

We had a great time playing Indian Mounds. The course is pretty open, which is great for a player of moderate ability. The restrooms were not very clean. That is only reason I couldn't give the highest rating.

A nice day

We enjoyed our outing very much. Course was in good shape and the greens were holding well and the putting was quick. We would play it again when on the island.

This course is very private.

The golf course was in very good shape. Greens were alittle soft. Fairways and tee boxes in great condition. Sand traps consistent. I wish greens would have been firmer.

Very impressed

First tee time of the day, finished in 2:50. Course is cut through dense, jungle-y forest. Very tight with some holes, hit many irons off tee to keep in play. A few greens had damage along their collars. Overall a very enjoyable track, with interesting holes. Rarely is there a breeze, so can get very hot and humid.
