worth the drive

The course is great plenty of room but lots of water on every hole. With all of the rain lately the mosquitoes have increased their population so take bug spray.

Never fails to Impress

What a great course my favorite in the Orlando area. Lots of water and sand yet plenty of room in the landing area of the fairways. Wildlife everywhere flying and swimming or just laying out in the sun one of the biggest gators around calls this place home. Bring your A game or a lot of balls either way it is a lot of fun to play here.

lots of hills

Not your typical Florida course. More hills then you would think Florida has. Made playing here a challenge up hill down hill and side hill lies every where. The tees are flat and that's about it. Course was fun.

one bad apple

I'm not a member of this course so maybe that's why the first guy working there that met us at the bag drop acted like I should be some were else and I had to deal with him twice. The other people were very nice and the course was okay but my day had already been derailed.

fast greens

Played early in the morning greens where mowed and most fairways were done. The greens were firm and very fast the ball rolled true. Fairways should be wide enough but if you stray you will end up in water.

Slow play

Slow play is killing golf course incomes and this course is looking for new members so why would they put a 5 some of members out there who refuse to let a 2 some play through even when they had at least 2 holes open in front of them.. This is not the kind of people I want to play with daily. If you don't play behind these guys the course is very nice. How do I know they were members Kevin had his name on his bag for everybody to see. They also want more than $2.00 for a candy bar.

This course has it all

Uphill, downhill, trees, water, sand you can see and play all of them if you don't bring your A game Its not called Howie in the Hills because its flat. Beautiful course can't belive its almost 100 years old.Worth the drive from Orlando.

Couldn't be any better

The rains the last couple of days have really greened this course up greens were smoooth and fast, fairways and tees really nice. If the ponds were full this would be one of the most beautiful courses you could play, still very nice.Its a must play.
