Heading in the wrong direction, again

I refer to this track as Jekyll and Hyde. It looked promising 6 weeks ago and was put back on our golf group's rotation but sad to say it 's had a relapse back to horrible once again! We'll give it 6 months for the next reconnaissance round by the more adventurous players in our group.

Wedgefield is on the upswing!

Conditions are vastly better than 6 months ago when we took Wedgefield off our rotation. After reading more favorable recent reviews we gave it another try and are glad we did! The work that is being done to get this course back to tip top shape is obvious and extensive. Wedgefield has been put back on our rotation and we are looking forward to our next rounds there. Thanks Craig and staff for putting your heart and soul into the effort!

$5 cart upcharge

LIke the course and the grill, but the $5 upcharge for a cart feels like a shakedown in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis. As other reviewers have mentioned no other golf course did this in the past 3 months. If they are going to do that it should be built into the Golfnow price for the round.

Excellent staff, course improving

Ryan in the pro shop is always a pleasure to deal with! The course has been in worse shape recently but is improving. Challenging layout for a 23 handicap but very interesting..

Getting better and better!

Our group plays La Cita about twice a month. With the land elevation changes and interesting layout this is much better than the "traditional" Florida course! Conditions are constantly improving and the staff works hard to make you feel welcomed. Due to another local course closing we will be playing LaCita three times a month now!

Always enjoyable

Rio Pinar is in our golf group rotation and we play there about 3 times a year. It's a challenging layout steeped in Florida golf history and we always enjoy the old course feel and our rounds there. The pro shop and restaurant staff were gracious and helpful.

Great time and great day!

I live in the area and with the closing of two other local courses La Cita now has a firm place in the rotation. The staff if great and with the interesting layout and elevation changes this course is a breath of fresh air from the typical Florida golf course. Our group really enjoys this place and it's definitely worth a try!

Stay away

I've played Sherwood once or twice a month for the past 5 years during which time It has gone from nice to horrible more than once, but now it's the worst ever! A month ago conditions were good but obviously nothing has been done since then. They seem to have just given up. It now appears that the latest owner window-dressed the course to sell housing lots and now that the development is near complete he is letting the course go to seed. Too bad because I really liked this place.

Rough shape

Golfnow hot deal $1 a hole. Play here once a year with my son for amusement and tradition. Staff is great. I'm a 24 and this course always gets me. Tee boxes meh but greens are good. A good golfer will love the challenge especially on the back nine. Not worth more than $25 IMO

A favorite

I play Great Outdoors often and it's always good, and getting even better the last couple of months. Our group always has a good time, the staff and restaurant are great, and the rates reasonable. What else can you ask for?

Improving

Fairways were good, greens had recently been plugged but were playable, traps were fair. A few of the greens are experiencing weed issues, but it is evident that money is being spent for welcome improvements.

Getting better all the time

This has always been one of my favorites and I've played it through thick and thin. The new ownership is showing a positive result. Fair rating for off-course amenities is only because the restaurant is closed, but reopening is in the plan. Stay tuned...
Keep up the good work!

Constant improvement is evident!

I've played Sherwood many times over the past 3-4 years and have always been happy, but under the new recent ownership the conditions are fabulous! If you have come away less than happy after playing in the past few years you really owe Sherwood another chance!

Fun course

We had a great time. Excellent staff, and the course was in good shape. Course is tight, but not as tight as some of the other reviews would lead you to believe. First timers should study the hole maps on the scorecard because some of the water hazards are not clearly visible. We will be back for sure.

Improvements are obvious

I've played Wedgefield at its best and worst and must say there is some significant improvement in process. We had a great round and enjoyed our lunch afterwards. This course should be perfect by the fall!

Declining

We where at Wedgefield earlier this year during the spring and the course was in much better shape, but not now. We haven't had much rain and this has definitely taken it's toll on Wedgefield. Most fairways and greens are in bad shape. We won't be going back there for quite some time.

Getting there

Wonderful layout, not your typical FL golf course. This is a gem that fell on to hard times, but is coming back. The front nine was in better shape. This is a work in progress and once it has a chance to recover it will be great. I'll go back towards the fall in hopes that the magic has progressed.
