The Club at River Wilderness
Played On 03/31/2021First Time Playing
Really enjoyed the layout, the staff was nice but unfortunately the conditions of the tee boxes, fairways and greens were not in good shape under any objective review. Would really like to head back out as the layout really set up for my game and offered the right amount of risk and reward but unless conditions improve I’ll hold off. Will be watching the reviews to see if things get better.
The Ritz-Carlton Golf Club, Orlando, Grande Lakes
Played On 05/19/2020Always Top Notch Conditions
Pristine conditions tee to green on a fun layout. Staff is 1st rate, always a good time.
Innisbrook Resort & Golf Club - North Course
Played On 09/28/2019Not worth it
Pretty disappointing experience at the North Course. I’ve playing regularly at Innisbrook this summer and it’s generally been a positive experience. In this case a 7;30 booked time becomes 7:55 then I arrive and they have us starting on the back 9 behind 4 groups that can’t seem to understand what a starting time is so the 7:55 starting time becomes 8:25 and then we proceed to play 9 in 2:40 minutes. Throw in spotty fairways and bar tee boxes and you have to ask yourself what did I pay $130 for? I quit after 9, wasn’t worth it.
Wentworth Golf Club
Played On 08/10/2019Wentworth
Finally had a chance to experience Wentworth several times over the past month. The design is one of the better and more diverse in the Tampa area. The small greens and tight driving requires accuracy and managing your game. Greens were rolling good, fairways and tee boxes could use some work but this is the off-season and the daily ran makes things difficult. I'll be adding Wentworth to my rotation.
West at Jacaranda Golf Club
Played On 11/26/2018Jacaranda West
First time playing the course, nice design and fairways and tees were in great shape, a good number of greens were showing some stress however. Design is solid, some tight holes with a good use of water to force accuracy. Would play again but with the green conditions it was a bit over priced.
The Groves Golf and Country Club
Played On 11/24/2018The Groves
Pleasantly surprised by this course. I haven't played here before and didn't know what to expect. It's a well designed short course that allows you to use your bag and work your ball to find your way around the course. Greens are relatively easy with little break or undulation. It's a nice course to play if you are looking for a quick round or an opportunity to work on your hybrid/iron game and short game.
Saddlebrook at Saddlebrook Golf & Tennis Resort
Played On 11/17/2018Saddlebrook Course
Have played the Palmer a few times but first time at Saddlebrook. A shorter but more challenging course with a a good use of dog legs, bunkering and water to make up for the length. The course was recently overseeded so there was no roll to speak of but overall it was in pretty good shape and sure in a week or two it will be running firm and fast again. Great staff, definitely recommend the course.
Hawk's Creek Golf Club
Played On 08/18/2018Rough Crowd
Not sure what was going on out there today but it was definitely the millennial white trash open. F-Bombs being screamed across fairways, cop killer rap blaring from carts, vulgar messages on golf balls left on greens. Real nice way to spend the day on the course with your daughter. Not the courses fault but man some people just lack class.
Celebration Golf Club
Played On 08/09/2018Celebration
Course layout is fun, can be challenging from the tips and very playable from the middle set of tees. Condition was mostly room for this time of year though some of the fairways were a little crusty. Pace wasn’t great. Tough to justify a 5 hour round mid week when you can drive the fairways.
WestRidge Golf Course
Played On 07/21/2018Nice Course and Layout
Really enjoyed the course and conditions aside from a few greens that were stressed. Only complaint was a 4-some that had no self awareness. With a 935 tee time they played the front 9 three + holes behind the group in front of them. Course needs to marashall that stuff better.
Woodbridge Golf Club
Played On 08/22/2017Woodbridge GC
First time playing. Solid conditions, fun layout and very friendly staff. Only complaint was pace of play. 4:40 on a Tuesday morning is ridiculous
Cedar Crest Golf Course
Played On 08/08/2017First Time Playing
The course was recently renovated by DA Weibring, hosted a PGA Championship won by Walter Hagen back in the day. i've never played it before and while it's not in the best neighborhood I'll find my way back down. Fun course with a good mix of challenging holes and go for it holes. The conditions were pretty good and the greens rolled quick but could stand a rolling to take out some bumps. They did a good job on the renovation, hopefully they can keep the course in good shape.
Lakes at Firewheel Golf Park
Played On 08/05/2017Slow Play and Bumpy Greens
Roll the greens occasionally and Marshall the course. Slow play, groups jumping in, no one polices the place.
The Courses at Watters Creek - Traditions Course
Played On 08/04/2017Greens rolling great
The course continues to mature nicely and the greens are rolling great. The course is really a tale of two 9's, the front is challenging with a collection of holes that requires precision whereas the back plays very easy from 10 through 15 before a strong stretch of 16-18 to finish your round. Really a good value for public golf in the Metroplex
Stonebridge Golf Club
Played On 07/28/2017Great Layout and Bargain
Had a chance to play Stonebridge recently and really enjoyed the layout and conditioning. Just a fun course from 1 through 18, wish it was in my town as I'd play it regularly. Very friendly staff - great overall experience.
Moose Ridge Golf Course
Played On 07/27/2017Moose Ridge
Very nice course in great condition. Challenging layout that requires accuracy and the ability to bring the ball in high to greens. Forced carries will penalize the short hitter or low ball hitter. Greens were fast and undulating. My only issue is the bugs where fierce, they made about 3 holes almost unplayable. Staff was friendly and helpful, would go back - definitely.
Bear Creek Golf Club - West Course
Played On 04/12/2017Sky Creek
Unfortunately not the best experience. Having played the course many times I have never seen it in such poor condition from tee to green and bunkers. I realize it's early in the season but we had a mild winter and all the area courses are nearly perfect right now. Pace of Play was another story - no one enforcing it just a marshal driving by large gaps on the course and groups bunched up. It will be awhile before I return.
The Ritz-Carlton Golf Club, Orlando, Grande Lakes
Played On 11/06/2015Ritz Carlton Golf Course
Home to the PNC Father-Son Challenge - fantastic Greg Norman design that is playable for all handicaps. Great conditions and site lines. The course is pleasing to the eye and makes you want to come back and play again.
Waldorf Astoria Golf Club
Played On 11/04/2015Waldorf Golf Course
Good facility, great conditions but the course felt redundant. Hard to differentiate holes or remember them, somewhat of a repetitive experience.
Vineyard National Golf Course
Played On 08/18/2015Vineyards Golf
This course has really gone down hill in the condition department. Not much of anything good can be said, fairways, tee boxes, rough, and bunkers all in lousy shape. Greens were probably the best but that isn't saying much.
Thank you for taking the time to rate and review Jacaranda. We're glad you enjoyed yourself. We appreciate the feedback on the greens and please trust that we are working hard to get the courses into perfect shape for the winter.
