Excellent course

Played this course several times when I can get a decent price on golfnow. Love the course but very expensive in season. Only negative would be cart paths need some work but a minor issue considering fun course.

Not impressed

This course has a good layout, but unfortunately has not been well maintained. I have seen deteriorating sand traps and fairways. Greens had a lot of sand. Understand that weather has been dry, but conditions have definitely gone downhill at this course.

Excellent course - bring extra balls

This is such a fun course to play. Play here occasionally and enjoy it almost every time. Greens were in very good shape, fairways good and sand traps mostly in pretty good shape. If you don't lose any balls on this course, you are a very good golfer. Bring extra golf balls. Price on GN was good. I think it was the 14th, view was absolutely spectacular. You cannot walk this course as it has about 8 miles of cart path through nice woodlands.

First Class

This course is wonderful. Great conditions and fair to average to good players. Relatively open fairways for a mountain course, interesting holes. Just a lot of fun to play. Unfortumately,, a group outing on 6/11 left quite a few ball marks on the green. It might pay for the starter to remind golfers to repair their divots and ball marks. Would play again in a heartbeat.

Starter/ranger told us new handicapped player rules

Play this course.a few times a month. Always told in the past handicapped could drive up to collar of greens. On about the 5th hole, we were told to stay 30 yards from green. Please clarify which is correct. 30 yards seems a bit harsh for handicapped breathing difficulties.

Response from on 03/10/2018:
Thanks for the review. The rule for carts has always been 30 yards. We have recently gotten much stricter as vacation golfers have been visiting and driving right up to the pin on each hole. We know that some holes have a path that does not bring your cart right up next to the green but we hope that our visitors understand that is a sacrifice we have made to provide a challenging layout. This also helps keep the course conditions pristine and makes sure your round is enjoyable. We apologize for the miscommunication and hope to see you again.

Definite improvement

Had a somewhat negative comment in Nov. The course has clearly improved since then. Tee boxes, sand traps (although wet from rain) and yardage markers all improved. Thank you to the staff. Great layout - hope your improvement strides continue.

Going downhill

I have played this course many times over the past 7 years. Since the new management company took over, it has steadily gone downhill. The greens are still in pretty good shape. Tee boxes, sandtraps are not attended to. Fairways are OK, but heavy rains have taken a toll. Yardage markers could use repainting. A real shame - this used to be a really fun course to play.

Thanks for taking the time to review the course. We appreciate you rating the pace of place and green to be excellent during your rounds. Your feedback about the tee boxes and sand traps is important to us. Believe it or not, these are some of the hardest areas to maintain at the course because they see such heavy play and are easily influenced by the weather. With the hurricanes and heavy rain, we have been working nonstop to recover the course. The bunkers have seen the worst of it because it requires us to dry them out and retile each completely. The project is ongoing and we appreciate your patience as we finish. We hope you can give us another chance to show you an excellent experience. Thanks for playing The Habitat Golf Course.

Great course Poor amenities

The course was excellent. Nice fairways, greens, and overall a very pleasant round.
The bathrooms, however were disgusting - especially the small rest room at hole #10. First class place with no attention to bathrooms. In spite of that, worth the trip.

Well worth the trip

Traveled about 3/4 hour and will definitely play again. The course was perfect for the average golfer. The course was interesting and in good condition. Fairways were cut well and the greens were true and in great condition. Greens a bit slow and it took a couple of holes to adjust. Thoroughly enjoyed the round. Very minor negatives were cart paths and a couple of holes on the back nine were a bit difficult to find first time around.

Much better than expected

Reading other GN reviews, I did not expect much. Most accurate reviews were that May and June were best conditions. I really enjoyed the outing and thought the course was in generally good condition. Greens were excellent and true. Entire layout was interesting and back nine somewhat challenging. As single I paired up with 3 nice guys. Negative would be the sand traps of which most were in below average to poor condition. Well worth the GN price in spring.

Nice course.

Played for the first time and really enjoyed course. Water on only one hole. Most holes have a good sized fairway and par 3s are fairly interesting. Saw only 3 homes on entire course, so quite pretty. Entire course, especially greens were in great shape.

Blind Holes

I always like to play this course on occasion. Not in great shape but fun and challenging. If you have not played it before the blind holes will drive you crazy. Very hilly and some tough uphill shots. Greens mostly true.

Fun from the Senior Tees

Enjoyable course that I play occasionally. For my level of play, the seniors tees are very enjoyable. The white tees are a bit long for the high 90s golfer.

Poor Upper Management

Upper Management obviously not attentive. Played mid afternoon and 5 prior groups had to wait for previous rounds to finish to get a cart. Course did not have enough carts. To make matters worse, ours and at least 3 other groups had batteries die around hole 14. Placed call to office and took about 3/4 of an hour for men to replace cart for group behind us. We did the Flintstone bit and pushed and walked our cart back to 18. Felt bad for men working as instead of cleaning clubs and getting tips, they were getting nasty comments bringing carts to players on various holes. I'm sure they complained to upper management asking for more carts and went unheard. By the way, course was in excellent condition but I would check about carts before playing this course ever again.

Fun course to play.

This course was interesting to play. Many of the holes were quite open, yet some were somewhat difficult. I found it a lot of fun to play. It somewhat needed attention, but was generally in pretty good shape. That water was not a major factor except for three holes where it was a factor. I would definitely play this course again.

Good course that seemed well maintained. Greens were extremely slow. Somewhat long and very few sand traps which would have made it more interesting

This is a long course with very slow greens the day I played. Somewhat boring with little water and very few sand traps. Worth the great price on golfnow though.

Challenging course in excellent condition.

The course was very well maintained. Long with some waste areas to cross, so difficult for the shorter hitters like myself. Greens were true and every aspect of the course, including the condition of the sand traps were excellent. Highly recommend for the better golfers.
