A very mixed tale of two cities

The price was fair for the back nine. I would not pay anything to play the front nine again. It's boring and in poor condition. This was our first time at Brooksville CC. Booking was easy online and staff was very nice. Our cart had no brakes. The fairways are barely acceptable but we played preferred lies. The areas off the fairway are unplayable as there is no grass, just dirt, leaves and debris. The greens are ridiculous; the designer was drunk or high or probably both. The back nine from 11 to 18 is quite good and lots of fun. You may like this course or you may hate it. (I have been golfing for 50 years and have played in Canada, the U.S. in Scotland and in Germany.)

Very enjoyable course

The weather was perfect, 80* with little wind.
The course is in very good condition, the greens are fast and challenging. . (Maybe a bit too fast , a little intimidating if you're having a bad day on the greens.) There is a decent mix of holes from easy to difficult. The setting is relatively attractive if you like mobile homes. It's not like being "out in the country" but it is what it is. We enjoy the course and will return for sure. Not really a problem but the scene around the clubhouse is hectic and busy. The Golfnow Hot deal was a bargain.

Nice course

We played as a twosome on Monday and finished in 3 hours. Two groups let us play through, one at the turn which was nice. The conditioning is good, fairways and greens were good. Front nine is somewhat boring surrounded by ticky tacky township but the back is more interesting. Very open and spacious course for the most part. Not many hazards to worry about. We will return.

Excellent course and best condition we've seen it.

Could make non valet parking optional. Adds a phony pretentious aspect to the outing. We are just regular folks not high rollers! The golf course is very nice, challenging but playable. Highly recommended.

Nice course for a change of pace

Peridia is a nice short course par 60 with no par fives.
The tees were decent, the fairways were pretty good and the greens were excellent which counts for a lot.
The areas off the fairway were somewhat shabby. The holes feature only a few serious hazards, no forced carries. The scenery is average, nothing special, just more homes homes and more homes.
We played in just under 3 hours on a hot deal from GN. At a bargain price, I would play it regularly.

Very enjoyable, a bit different

Somewhat more interesting than the typical Florida course. Good reception, friendly staff. Several very nice holes, each hole a little different, not all the same like some courses we have played here. The greens were very nice but had not been cut that day. Tee boxes and fairways were good. We enjoyed the course and will go back. Only downside is traffic getting to and from the course. Traffic in Bradenton is horrendous. Oh yeah, and several yappy annoying dogs around the perimeter! LOL.

Beautiful and fun

We played River Strand for the first time and had a perfect day. The course is extremely well manicured and it is an interesting and enjoyable. The fairways are wide enough and provide good targets. The greens are tricky and fast - you have to put your ball in the correct place or you may be three putting - or worse. But the greens are fun since we don't normally get to play surfaces this good. The par threes are quite challenging. The sand in the bunkers is very good. There are a few water hazards but they are avoidable. Watch for the water and play away from it as the ground often slopes down just where your ball landed! This is possibly the best course we have played in Florida and we will go back for sure. Pace of play was great - a pleasant change - and the weather was perfect. The Rangers were very friendly. So glad we played this course.

Wonderful golf coure!

We played Waterlefe for the first time but would love to go back. This is perhaps the most beautiful course we have played in Florida. (We have played maybe 20 - 25 courses here in the Tampa - Bradenton region.)The greens are outstanding. The fairways are excellent. The holes are varied and interesting. The starter was very friendly and helpful. Thank you for the opportunity to play at such a fine facility.

Dog lovers welcome

Do you know how many dogs there are in the USA?
About 80 million. And most of them live at Summerfield Crossings. And they bark. And bark. Every freaking hole we were annoyed by barking dogs. They never stop. Barking. Geebus.
To add to our discomfort, the round was incredibly slow, for no good reason. It took almost 5 hours.
No rangers nor any effort by the course to speed things up
Too bad because the course is OK. The greens were pretty good, the fairways need a lot more TLC. The course design and layout is good.. We won't go back, unfortunately.

We played Rosedale with a Golfnow booking.
The course is very nicely laid out and the conditioning is excellent. The fairways are pristine and the greens are gorgeous. The staff was friendly and helpful.
We will return for sure. Thank you very much for the opportunity.

We enjoyed the course and will return

My wife and I played in less than 4 hrs. and the course was not busy. We enjoyed it more this time for some reason. Last time we were put off by all the driving between holes but this time it didn't seem so extensive. Heritage is a tricky looking course with lots of water but you can usually avoid it so it plays easier than it looks. Tees were in good condition, fairways are better than average. The greens are similar to the other courses we have played in this area - they are basically a bed of mud with some grass. About half the greens were pretty good, the other half were so-so. They're bare and bumpy and putts do not roll true. The speeds vary; some are quite slow, others are quicker. The price was good on Golfnow which we really appreciate and we will definitely return. The location is also handy so all in all a very good d ay.

Very nice course and excellent conditions

We played Tampa Bay 18 hole course for the 1st time and enjoyed it. You have to hit it straight to keep it out of the water but there is enough room on most holes. Several holes were quite challenging due to the bunkering. Hole 17 was very tricky and a bit unfair maybe, particularly if you have not played it before. We really enjoyed it but if you were in the water all day it might not feel so great. Conditions were very good. Greens are lightning fast but fair. Price was a bargoon on GolfNow. We will return for sure but I would not want to play it all the time.

Play it again, awesome deal

We played TT for first time; they paired up my wife and me with two singles who were good guys to play with. The course is in excellent condition and is a lot of fun. Very nice driving holes. Greens were in good shape and very very fast. Fairways are excellent. We considered this round a terrific deal and will go back as often as we can.

A good choice, very predictable and fair

We have played LLB several times. This time the greens were pretty good except for 3 or 4 with severe winter kill. Fairways are average. This is a good moderately interesting layout and we played in under 4 hours on a Sunday. The price on GolfNow was exceptionally good. We will be back.

Very nice course, interesting layout.

We golfed Pebble Creek multiple times during our vacation in the area. Very enjoyable. Nice carts with gps, good deal on Golfnow, not too busy. Course has a good mix with several outstanding holes. Greens not perfect but acceptable. Staff is very friendly and welcoming. Don't drink the Guiness!

Possibly the best course in the area

We found the course to be in excellent shape and enjoyed it tremendously. Great variety in design, enough challenge for anyone although not overly difficult from the white tees. The Golfnow price was a bargain. Only offputting aspect is the mandatory valet parking. Why? We will definitely return often.
