Beautiful Layout

We play this course a couple of times per year. Appreciated the free range balls. The course is a challenging layout with enough water and traps to get your attention. Our only complaint was the greens. They were overly firm and didn’t hold at all. We’d definitely would go back, but would like to see the greens a little more receptive.

Short but tight

Course was in good condition. Fairways were a little bare but the greens are good. You need to be precise on your tee shots on many holes.

Nice Course, but Greens Need Work

Most aspects of the course are nice. It is a nice layout. The tees and fairways are better than most courses that we have played in Orlando. But the hi greens need a lot of work. Some have been recently sodded. Some have large bare patches on them. All in all, they are very inconsistent. Maybe better in a month or two.

Gorgeous layout, but condition is rough.

The Red Tail course is a gorgeous layout. Very pretty and somewhat hilly. The clubhouse is very impressive, as are the homes surrounding it. Unfortunately, the condition is poor. Many of the tees are barren and the rough is barren to the extent that if you hit it on the fly, your ball will roll into a bad place. The greens, however, are in decent shape.
A few other thoughts. The course is unplayable to my wife because the course designer placed hundreds of moguls in the first 100 yards of each hole. She hits a low tee shot, so the moguls killed each of her drives. Also, they should go to a red/white/blue pin sequence so that a player can determine the location of the pins on the greens.

Course wet but good shape overall

They had a good deal of rain the day before we played, so the course was wet. It was cart path only, so it was playing long. The greens are a little slow, but they’re fine. Pace of play was good.

A Hidden Gem

Because it is somewhat distant from Orlando, not a lot of people know about this course. But it is a great golf course. The conditions are very good, from the plush fairways to the soft, receptive greens. We always enjoy playing at Big Cypress.

Legends is Back!

This was the first time playing since the makeover. The course is coming back nicely. The greens were very good. They had quick pace and held well. The fairways are pretty good, but still need to fill in a little. The tees need work yet. The layout is unusual in that it's a hilly course, and you don't see that much in Florida. Some beautiful views of Lake Louisa from the course. Love playing there.

Huntington keeps getting better

We played on February 7, and the course was in very good condition. The greens were excellent and fast. The fairways were mostly good, just some barren spots on some fairways, like #3. The front nine is very challenging. But I like the variety of holes and the course and the scenery of the ponds and wetlands. Great day of golf!

Hard as a Rock

The course was very firm and fast. The greens were hard and fast, as were the fairways. I have a number of complaints about this course. First of all, they overcharged me on my Golf Now tee time by not giving credit for the 5% already paid to Golf Now. The person behind the counter seemed unaware of how Golf Now works. Secondly, I didn’t like how they shaved down all of the aprons. A number of balls that hit on the aprons rolled off and ended up 20 yards from the green. Lastly, we had 3 different GPS’s in our group, and none of worked with their crazy layout. I’m not anxious to go back.

Nice Condition-Nice Golf Course

Conditions are pretty good. Good tees and fairways. Greens are pretty patchy. GPS doesn't work on many parts of the course. Glad they changed #18 to a par 3 in order to free-up the area next to the 17th green.

Beautiful Day of Golf

Course condition was the best of any of the 15 courses I've played in Central Florida. Tees and fairways are plush. Greens are plush too, but a little slow for our liking. Marshal kept play moving, we finished in 4.5 hours. Course was challenging in that many holes were narrow, plenty of sand and plenty of water. Can't wait to play again!

Short course--But lots of water!

We played on an extremely windy day, which made the course tough because of the amount of water on the course. Back nine has water on every hole! Overall condition was pretty good, greens are pretty good, but small. We learn that we had to bump and run it to get it onto the putting surface. You can putt from the aprons because they keep it closely mowed.

A nice municipal course

The course is in nice condition. Fairways are green, and the greens are in decent shape. The layout is interesting, and can be challenging, particularly on the back nine. Holes 1-4 were difficult because they are somewhat long, but dead into the wind the day we played.

Great Layout - But what happened to the greens?

We have played the course before, so we knew what to expect. The layout is great, with a good mixture of holes. Like the three par 3's and three par 5's on the front nine. Tees and fairways are in good condition. Our only complaint was the condition of the greens. Very patchy, bumpy and difficult to putt. We plan to give this a month to see if the greens fill in a little.

Target Golf - Way too tight!

This is a difficult course to play, if you spray the ball the least little bit. Water, out of bounds and sand abound. On the back nine, I could only hit driver on 3 holes due to the course design. One fairway is only about 40 yards wide situated between two lakes. The condition has greatly improved over the last few years. I just thought that the holes are just way too tight. Be prepared to tee off with an iron on about 10 or 12 of the holes.

Scenic Layout-Terrible Conditions

We enjoyed our round today at Sanctuary Ridge. The layout is interesting and challenging. Since it’s in hilly Clermont, the vistas are spectacular. Unfortunately, the course conditions are not good. There is little grass in the fairways, and the greens are very inconsistent.
I’ll probably play it again because I so enjoy the layout. Hopefully it will be in better condition next time.
