Has potential

Not the best experience after a major overnight rainstorm. Cart path only makes for a very trying round. Course is deceptively long so we moved up a set of tees on the back nine and it was more enjoyable after that. Thought the greens were a little strange. Cut pretty tight and rolled pretty good but doesn’t look very asthetic don’t know what the answer is but looks like they need to grow in and then cut them down. A lot of spaces between grass blades. I’m not a geologist but think one should see grass not dirt on a green. Js overall was glad to play there.

Margaritaville

The course was not in great shape and the greens were terrible. It was not busy and we were able to play at a great pace.

Would play there again for the right price.

Mud flaps required

Track is the same thin grass fairways and mixed grass greens. Layout is great with exception of a bunch of trees that need trimming along fairways on front 9. Back 9 is more accessible and much more fun than front but the greens are worse than the front. It rained the night before so every bunker was a free drop from the pond of water in each. Cart paths were covered in standing water or a mud slide. Had to wash my bag when I got home. Staff as always laid back and friendly. Wish the had a menu listing over the bar showing what is available. This course could be so much more if it had a little love and money put back into it.

If JB corp wants a two year course improvement plan give me a call. Have chainsaw for step one. Grass in fairways step two, fix bunker drainage, remove and replace greens with 1 type of grass, cart path renovation. For the time being get a cement mixer put sand fertilizer and grass seed together and fill your divot dispensers on the cart with mixture so players can start reseeding the fairways while they play.

Nice layout

The staff was friendly, course was pretty narrow, greens were soft and slow, but not bumpy. The "sand traps" were filled with dirt and muddy though we have not had rain in awhile.

We.had a foursome in front of us playing some kind of scramble, but they ended up backing up probably 5 groups behind us as we never were allowed to play through though they had more than a hole open in front of them and we never saw a marshall.

Pro shop

I paid for a round of golf on GolfNow at Margaritaville for my brother-in-law and I. I have played this course many times over the years and have always paid online with GolfNow. When we arrived at the pro shop, the employee at the desk disputed that we had paid online. He said that GolfNow always requires payment at the course and that we owed for the green fees. I told him that I'm always pay online and showed him my receipt from GolfNow indicating "0 owed at course". He wouldn't accept this and insisted that we owed for the green fees. I told him to call the manager and he said he was away. But, that he was going to check with "some members" that he saw in the parking lot. He did, then admitted that he was wrong all along. Great! But. not something we should have had to put up with while waiting for him to find out he was wrong. Bad experience that was uncalled for. I hope GolfNow will let this course know that payment is accepted by them when the reservations are made.

I was impressed with the nice fairways…

From the moment we teed off, to the final putt, this course was a definitely a winner! It was cart path only, we were told they had received 6 inches of rain the day before. We played 18 holes in 3 1/2 hours. Front nine has 4 par 4’s that play a little narrow. Back nine plays easier of the tee box than the front side. True lies on all fairways, ball just sits up. Greens, putts rolled so smooth. This course is definitely maintained well…and we will be back to enjoy another golf outing.

My 2 cents

Course overall was in good condition. Pace of play was pretty slow at times but not all day. Course does require accuracy because it is fairly tight with not much room from fairway edge to out of bounds in several places.

Great course

Course layout is great. Pace was pretty good... could have pairedv players to eliminate singles. Only had interaction with staff while getting cart. He was a bit rude, but I would still recommend this course.

Short course, quick play

Although I do wish the Greens were in just a little bit better shape. I get it, mid-march calm down. The course is not very long, very hard to pull out your Driver and really give it a whack. If you want a quick round, and work on your irons and who doesn't need to right, then I suggest here. If you are meeting a buddy and you both are great ball strikers, you might be disappointed. I hope this helps. Have a great Season, keep your head down.
