Course in good shape...

Overall the course remains in good shape. The greens were a bit slow, but rolled great.
The rough had been cut and was easier to find your ball and hit out of.

Fantastic Greens.....Sandy Fairways

The course is getting better. They had sanded the fairways quite a bit, but the sand will filter down with more watering and rain.
The greens were very smooth and fast.
Pace of play was a bit slow, but not too bad.

The course is better each time we play.

The greens and fairways were in good shape. There are still a few bare spots but mostly those are in the rough which just needs more rain to help the grass grow.

The layout of the course is always fun to play.

Fun Course....

The course is certainly not in top notch condition, but overall was very playable. There are some bare and thin spots throughout most of the fairways. The first hole fairway is probably the thinnest of the holes. If you land in a bare spot, just roll it to some grass.

The greens were rolling pretty fast. A couple of the greens had been sanded to help repair them, but those rolled OK.

The tee boxes were hit and miss, some were bare and a bit sandy, but others were in good condition.

Not sure $70 was worth it and a bit on the high side for the conditions, but similar to other courses in the area.

Still a work in progress....

The new owners are putting in lots of work to upgrade the course and the facilities. The range will be a Trackman facility when complete.
Once the rainy season starts, the course will be in much better shape. It is a bit dry at this time similar to other courses in the area.

No Deer....Just Gators!

Never figured out why they call this Deer Island. Of all the times I have played here I have yet to see a deer. I think the gators ate them all.
Course was in great shape. Greens were a bit slower than usual, but rolled good if you just hit the putt hard enough.
My playing partner left his range finder on the cart. The course call me the next day to let me know they had it. Great service! Thanks!

Good conditions....

This course is always fun to play. Even more fun when the fairways are in good condition! There are still bare and thin areas in the rough like a lot of the courses in the area, but if you stay in the fairways no problem!
Greens were good but a bit slow due to long grass, but better than being bare sand.
Wish everyone fixed their ball marks on the greens.

Fast Greens.....Bare Fairways

For awhile this course seemed like it was on the mend with the new owners. They are still working on it, but I was disappointed in the conditions of the fairways on the front nine. There were a lot of bare sandy spots. The back nine appeared to be in better condition.
The greens were super fast and hard.
I hope the conditions improve when we get a bit more rain. I will still be back.

Still growing in....

The course is still growing in from being closed for over 5 years. Going to take some time to get grass in the fairways and rough to be consistent. Great course, just wish it would get better quicker.

Great Burgers!

The course is still in a stage of growing back in. Fairways and rough are sparse in a lot of areas. Played off a lot of dirt and mud. Greens would be decent if players fixed their ball marks.
Always enjoyed the layout of SBW. Pretty challenging on its good days.

Brown Greens?

The greens were actually brown in color, but they rolled extremely fast. Must have been a 15 on the stimp.
Overall the course was in excellent shape, the overseeding of the roughs made them a bit thick and sticky. Stay in the fairways!

Course in great shape!

Overseeding of the fairways created a nice playable surface when you were in the fairway. :)
Greens were great. Not fast but not too slow.
Played in less than 4 hours.

Still wish they had a beverage cart.

Disappointed....

The last round I played at Legends was 8 weeks ago and the course was in great shape all the way around. Since that time, the fairways and tee boxes have become very thin and sparse with a lot of bare spots.

The greens were in excellent shape and rolled true and fast.

The green fees were too high for the condition the course was currently in.

Getting better each time.

The course is still going through some renovations to bunkers on quite a few holes, but the course is very playable and the greens, fairways and tee boxes were in good shape.
The new owners are really trying to make this a top notch course in the Orlando area.

Overseeded fairways

The greens rolled really well and were a bit quick. The fairways however had not been cut due to the overseeding and you did not get much roll on the fairways due to the length of the overseeded grass.
Still a great course.
Still wish they would provide a beverage cart or provide water on the course to drink.

Overseeding and Bumpy Slow Greens

The course was just recently overseeded which is not really an issue except for the overseeding of the greens caused them to be very slow and bumpy. Once they are able to mow and roll them, they should be good.

Back in the Rotation!

If you used to play this course before the conditions went downhill, I would recommend you put the course back in your course rotation. The conditions are improving by the week. Always a fun course to play. Pace of play could be a bit better and so could the price to play. But it is that time of year.

Better than expected.....

Metrowest has been getting better each time I play it over the past few months. There are some bare spots in the fairways that appear to be weed control issues, but the greens, tees, fairways, rough, and bunkers are all in good shape.

I would recommend playing.

Charged for our missing 4th :(

The course is in great condition. The pace of play was a bit slower than usual, but the weather was great and the beverage cart came around multiple times during our round.

Only complaint is I got charged for the 4th that did not show up. Oh well. Live and learn.
Should have canceled the day before I guess.
