IMG Academy Golf Club
Played On 01/29/2021Better than I expected
Practice facilities are not that great so my expectations were not high accordingly. Pleasantly surprised at the condition of the course. Tee boxes - grass a little high. Fairways good condition. Greens excellent.
Esplanade Golf & Country Club at Lakewood Ranch
Played On 01/18/2020Outstanding
Excellent conditions. Don't need to touch the ball anywhere on the course. Best I have played through Golfnow this year.
Misty Creek Country Club
Played On 01/17/2020Excellent Layout
Fairways were very good. A little thin here and there. Some wet holes on the front. Back was near perfect. Greens are true and fast. A very fun and well laid out golf course
The Club at River Wilderness
Played On 01/15/2020Nice course
Very nice layout. Excellent greens. Fairways green and pretty good. Three fairways on the back side were thin and quite wet. A lot of fun. Some challenging holes. Best course so far this winter in Sarasota/Bradenton area.
The Links at Greenfield Plantation
Played On 01/13/2020Fairways green and quite playable - greens excellent
Fairways were green and quite playable. Greens were excellent. Grass on tees was very long. OK driving surface. I would do it again. Blue tees are a bit of a carry at times. If you are not long off the tee from the blues ....... consider moving up to the whites. Blues are 6,200+ while the whites are 5,700+.
Quite a difference. Might want to consider making up your own blue/white combination. Counter staff in club house a bit grumpy. Ranger was cheerful and helpful in moving play along.
The Preserve Golf Club
Played On 01/11/2020Fairways a bit rugged
Greens were good. Tees were OK. Fairways were spotty. Not much grass. As long as you are content hitting off sparsely green lies the course is very good. You could find nice patches of grass but you had to move the ball around a bit. Not something I like to do.
Fun layout and a lot of water. The two guys I played with weren't real golfers. They must have drown three dozen golf balls between them.
Played in 3 hours and 15 minutes on a Saturday. We were lucky to get out right before an outing that appeared dreadful time wise.
Indian Bayou Golf Club
Played On 04/18/2019Well conditioned and fun layout
Greens are fantastic! Played it twice. Enjoyable and challenging layout. Will play it again next year.
LPGA International - Jones Course
Played On 01/17/2018Disappointed
Greens were rock hard (new greens) and fairways were wet. If you hit a green, the ball would bound and end up over the green or an the back side. A well struck ball would perform this way. If you hit short of the green the ball would virtually plug. How playable is this? It is not like the course had a lot of rain in the recent past.
Fairways were wet as well. Overseeding is thin.
Needless to say, I will not be back and would discourage my friends from playing this course
Waterlefe Golf & River Club
Played On 01/16/2018Improved
I played here last year and swore I would not be back. In scheduling, I made a mistake and mistook this course for another. I was pleasantly surprised. Last January the conditions were poor. This year ... very much improved.
The course has come a long way. The design and routing are excellent. The fairways could have a bit more overseeding to them. The greens were perfect.
I will be back next year.
Roses Run Country Club
Played On 07/15/2017Awful ....... gone downhill ....... a lot.
The course conditions were awful. Greens were slow. Velcro like! And bumpy. Fairways were patchy. Tees were full of clover.
Took 5 hours and fifteen minutes. No rangers. We had a specific tee time. When we showed up the "starter" (really a cart mover) told us to go get in line. What? No real starter. Could have been a free-for-all except the golfers were gentlemen. Ahead and behind us.
They should be ashamed. And I didn't play badly. These are not sour grapes. I played reasonably well.
I will not be back. A nice Brian Hundley designed golf course ruined by lack of attention to course conditions.
Indian Bayou Golf Club
Played On 04/18/2017Fantastic
I have played 24 different courses in AZ, NC and FL since January 1st. This course is by far the best conditioned course I have played. Greens are perfect. Fairways and great. I love the layout.
Foxfire Resort & Golf Club - Grey Fox Course
Played On 03/21/2017Firefox Gray - conditions poor
I played this course two years ago. The fairways were overseeded in 2015. Not this year. The greens were very patchy and very bumpy. I would say in complete disrepair. Fairways and rough had huge patches of bare areas with ruts and more. Good golly! Not maintaining this excellent layout. It is too bad.
Foxfire Resort & Golf Club - Red Fox Course
Played On 03/21/2017Excellent layout.
Great classic layout. Greens were good. Fairways were marginal and not overseeded like in 2015 when I last played it. That was a bit disappointing. The condition of the fairways and other areas has deteriorated in two years time. Too bad. Greens were fine though.
Rocky River Golf Club at Concord
Played On 03/17/2017Solid layout
Solid layout. Windy and overcast skies influenced my complete enjoyment. Not grown in yet but I could see the course is well maintained. I would do it again.
Camelback Golf Club - Padre Course
Played On 02/10/2017Crowne Plaza San Marcos Golf Resort
Played On 02/09/2017Solid course
Course conditions were quite good. Never had to touch the ball in the fairway. Greens moderate speed. Could be a bit quicker since there is not a lot of pitch to the grrens. I enjoyed the course.
Celebration Golf Club
Played On 01/18/2017Snail golf and slow greens
Five hour round and marshals were everywhere. Locals told us that five hours is the norm. Greens are very smooth and true but extremely slow. Locals told us that the greens are always slow. Only one (1) water station on the fron nine. Nothing on the back nine. Come on this is Florida. It is hot. There should have been regular water stations every four or five holes. I was getting a little worried about the loder guy in my cart on the back nine. Ridiculous.
There was lunch included and the club sandwich I had tasted like it had cheese whiz on it. Disgusting. No I know why lunch was included.
I will not play here again. And I played and scored well so my rating is not sour grapes!
Hello dougmccarihan,
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback regarding your recent experience. I am sorry to hear that it did not meet your expectations. I will reach out to you directly to discuss your experience further as what you've identified here is not a normal experience. In regards to your water concern, a water fountain and bottle filling station is available on the front nine at hole #3 & #8, as well as at the turn. An additional station was installed shortly after your visit on #13, providing 4 opportunities for complimentary refreshments during your round. Thank you again for your feedback, I look forward to speaking with you soon.
Esplanade Golf & Country Club at Lakewood Ranch
Played On 01/16/2017Fairways ridiculously wide
I am not sure what the architect had in mind but these fairways were the widest fairways I have ever encountered. I have been playing this game regularly for 50+ years and have played hundreds and hundreds of courses. Ridiculous.
Dear Doug,
Glad you enjoyed hitting every fairway on the golf course! Thanks for the feedback, it is appreciated. We look forward to seeing you again.
Best,

Legend Trail Golf Club
Played On 02/19/2016Wonderful
Best experience for me so far this trip. My fifth course played. Course was in excellent shape. Great iverseeding. Fairways almost lush. Greens outstanding. I played here a couple of year ago and they have improved the conditions. Practice area is the only thing that I would say is not up to par. Thin sandy turf area on range with unlevel lies everywhere.
Scottsdale Silverado Golf Club
Played On 02/18/2016Good Condition
Silverado was in real good shape. I played last year about the same time of year. Much better condition this year. Greens are quite fine. Overseeding nice but not quite full.
Hi "dougmccarihan"
