Short, kind of tricky, small greens....

This is a fairly typical executive course......three short par 4s on each nice, the rest a par 3s. The longest par 4 is just over 300 yards, the longest par 3 just over 150 years. Most are about 120 yards.

There is water, more on the second nine.......mostly lateral hazzards.

The greens are EXTREMELY small....mostly very narrow and kidney shaped. Hard to hit, and harder to chip to because there is too little green to carry a chip or pitch onto the green...must usually bounce it in. On the first 10 holes I was never further than 35 feet from the hole, and only hit 1 green in regulation!

Excellent Florida Course

Loved this course! Great layout, fair off the tee, interesting green complexes, excellent greens, and fine conditioning.

Very busy, but pace around 4 hours. Good restaurant.

Wonderful golf course, and an exceptional value.....

We decided to play on our first day up north, and were surprised to find such a great deal on GolfNow on a Saturday with such short notice.

The course was wonderful.....old school design, wonderful condition, fast, contoured greens, no forced carries.....pace of play on Saturday was a little slow....only negative the whole day.

Service excellent....clubs taken from the car onto the cart, and then the guy followed us to the car with the cart, so we didn't have to walk back to the club.

This used to be an all private club, and it shows....i would not hesitate to recommend it, and the deal is a real steal.....

Average layout, but near perfect condition

Played here because we didn't want a crowded, difficult course for my wife to play. We were scheduled to be paired with two others, but the very nice starter got us off by ourselves, and we were able to play through two other groups.

First off, the day was perfect, and the course in near perfect conditions.....smooth, fast greens, perfect fairways, raked bunkers.

For guys, it is difficult to pick a tee to play. The white tees are over 6,500 yards, which is long for most players, while the silver tees are only 5,600. I picked the silver, and on the front nine it was difficult to pick a club and line off the tee.......dog legs at 160-200 yards, worry about hitting it too far, but could not see what was around the corner in most cases.....and then after hitting less than driver, you had a 150+ second shot. Front was tight and kind of confining, and flat. Back nice opened up a bit, and was more playable...more hills, prettier and more fun.

Overall an ok resort course for couples.

Fun, pretty course.

Nice course, especially the back nine which is short, but pretty. Very fast greens, fairways are dormant bermuda now, tees are in pretty good shape.

Staff was great, and burgers in the restaurant are super.

Great course, and a great deal.

Played on a Saturday in November, paired with 3 other guys. The bermuda fairways have gone dormant, but the greens were great...green, fast and absolutely perfect.

This was a great golf course...excellent routing, a variety of uphill, downhill and flat holes, nice bunkering, and lots of pretty views. the course is routed through an upscale neighborhood, but the fairways are pretty wide, and the houses a pulled pretty far back so you don't feel like you are driving down a narrow hallway. I never felt that if I hit is just a little crooked that I would go O.B. There was enough room. There was water on a few holes, but the main challenge is the hills and the VERY fast greens. There are places that if you get above the hole or hole high on a slope that is is difficult to keep a putt anywhere near the hole....you need to manage your game and try to stay below the hole.

There is a fair driving range and a decent snack bar.

My Golfnow deal of $25 was an incredible bargain.
