Fairway conditions are not that great unfortunately

The fairways are are looking bad (I've seen better days at FC) and seems they are not being worked on or treated. Greens and tee boxes are great as usual but please put some work in on the fairways and even near the green, some spots are very thin and bare so its difficult to chip. Sand traps could improve too, some holes the sand is very hard and not soft. Overall, still a great course and staff are always friendly but please work on the fairways.

Nice track but pricey

Definitely worth a visit once if you've never played but it is pricey. Range is included and carts have GPS so you can see layout and distance and when you get near the green, it'll automatically zoom in which is nice. This was my first time here but one thing that threw me off initially was parking... at first I thought I had to pay for parking because there is a gate where you take a ticket but if your golfing, they will validate it so you don't end up paying for parking which is perfect. Or else I'd be irate that I had to pay for parking at a course where the price is usually above $70. Overall nice course but maybe the price will drop in the future. Oh and unlike other courses, they have drinking water for you which I love because I like being hydrated while golfing and I only drink H2O

This course will be closing soon

Use to be great course. Lived in Hunters Creek area for 15 years but unfortunately it's closing. Check out Orange County National or Royal St Cloud... OCN has two 18 holes and Royal has three 9 holes

Bunkers look bad

It's been a while since I've played here but this time, was shocked to see the course condition not as great as before. Bunkers were mostly unplayable and clearly no maintenance being done on them. Greens looked nice but they were slow compared to before but they looked nice. The rough was kind of bad too. This was such a great course but not worth $90 a round. Hopefully it changes around but not worth the drive from Austin anymore.

Customer service has gone down tremendously

If you want to start 20-30 minutes past your tee time, play here. Had a 5pm tee time and didn't get a cart until 530. Starter was rude and not smart. Told us to hold on for another few minutes as we were supposed to play with another twosome. I decided to just start and not wait as the last group that went off was at least 30 minutes before I did. Long story short, if I listened to the starter, we wouldn't have finished the front nine in hour and change and would've held up the groups behind us. Some starters at Forest are smart but beware. By the way, the twosome that was supposed to play with us didn't catch us until hole 13. Play as a foursome and we wouldn't have finished 18 but since we played separately, we finished 18 by teeing off at 530 and in the parking lot by 9pm. If there is a 30 min gap, it never makes sense to pair up as a foursome. Causes a bottle neck for the groups behind us. But I'm just upset at how some of the staff treat you. Please change this GM

Glen Clay is very rude

I will be calling in to speak with his supervisor but it says carts in at sunset and this guy drives up to us on hole 17 and very rudely says carts have to be in 5 minutes you can't play anymore. Well it wasn't even sunset yet!!! The group in front of us was rudely kicked off too and I only know this rude staff name because the other guy asked. I cannot believe how rude staff are to customers at these sun city courses. Especially if your not a member. By the way, Charlotte is awesome just be careful with Glen Clay.

Pace was slow

Feel like Marshall didn't do his job to speed up play. Could easily finish but waited on every hole after hole 2. Greens were slow in my opinion and I've seen better at Disney.

Also the pro shop tried to charge me a different price then what I was shown on golfnow and to be honest, that has been happening a lot lately and I'm always showing the pro shop my reservation to get the price I booked.

Not sure if this is golfnow issue or the course but this needs to get fixed as I'm sure more than half the people who reserve through golfnow are paying more.

Great course, terrible customer service

Loved the course (conditions, layout, etc.) but very poor customer service. They did let us start on hole 15 as the 1st tee box was busy but we literally had one hole left (about 5:40pm) and we were told that we have to pack it up as the" city" rule is all carts have to be in by 5:30pm. I've never heard of this but we still decide to play as we tee'd off at 2:20pm and sun didn't set until 5:50pm.

We were rudely told to stop when we tee'd off and then the guy working at the cart barn was uncaring. Didn't ask how our round was, or clean our clubs and told us he needed the cart right away as we were tallying up the score.

All in all, great course! Not too bad on the price either as many courses in the Miami area can be expensive (as I'm used to paying around $20-$25 and I'm from Orlando, FL) but if you're about customer service, don't go. If you don't care and want to play a nice course, definitely go.

Great course poor staff

From bag drop to pro shop... I had a bad experience because staff was a little rude and not friendly.

Once I started playing, had an amazing time though. Course was in great shape! Definitely would recommend this course but just be aware of the staff.

Slow play

Played this course before... love Disney courses but lately it's been slow and marshals are nowhere to be seen.

I am all for the 4.5 hour pace rule but at times holes get backed up... don't even need to pair up people but some groups have golfers that take way too many shots (practice shots/mulligans) and don't play ready golf.

For a place like Disney, there should be marshals either helping or moving pace. I know last time I read that the GPS device may "warn" you about slow play but for a game like golf, marshals are needed.

All in all, still love Disney courses but slow play can sometimes hurt your play.
