Tidy course

Well maintained grounds with clean manual ball wash station and towel at every hole. Greens were fair with a few soggy spots despite it being afternoon and no recent rain.

Play it

The course is in the middle of a busy neighborhood with roads and cars passing by all the time. Fairways are tight. Greens are quick and in excellent shape. Glad I finally got to play this historic course.

Wow

This facility lives up to the hype on my first visit. From the 3 practice holes, well maintained conditions, and not a house in sight this is a golfers paradise making it hard to believe you're still in FL. Best place I've ever played.

Good

Lightening was in play for a few holes but came back to play them later when it had cleared without issue other than league play started which I worked through. Greens were great. Overall nice course.

Impressed

First time at this course and glad I went. The pro shop guy at check in and starter (needed due to busy conditions) were both friendly. The scorecard shows lines to take on each hole with multiple distance markers on course. Not the longest course or shortest course but reasonable. Only 7 minute window between groups so pace was at a standstill at times. Will return.

Adequate

Pace of play was awful. There was a group of 4 at my start time. Ahead of them was another group. Behind me was another group. The pro shop guy was nice but should have been proactive in managing this cluster.
Patchy grass on tees/greens but did not affect my driving/putting.
No balls were lost.
Overall decent value.

First links experience

Wasn't sure what to expect for a links course but I loved it. The change in elevation comes into play for a few of the holes both down hill and up hill. Greens were nice but challenging due to slopes. A few of the tee boxes were bare in spots but not a big deal hitting off a tee. The rolling hills scenery is nice and now makes this one of my favorite courses.

Don't go, will not return

Showed up for my reservation but was told that a high school tournament was also scheduled and would have to start on hole 10 and then see if I could play all 18 holes as if they were doing me a favor.

Decent

Surprisingly lost many balls. One of the greens was moved to a rough grass area.
