Has to be one of the best deals in FL

Late AM tee time. Was paired with 2 visiting priests; keep the swear words down -:) What a great course, and price is unbelievable. So good that after the round I inquired about membership and lots/housing. Could play there every day without getting bored. Greens could be a little quicker, but that was only complaint. Very nice starter and clubhouse folks as well.

Another of my favorites in Greater Orlando area

Price was for 2 of us as I played with my wife, who is a beginner, but plays well. We were paired with a local member and played through a 4-some on the 4th or 5th hole. We let him go ahead after 9, and we played the back-nine like VERY private course as saw no one!! Late afternoon tee time - LOTS of folks at the pools. Looks like active community. This is one place where the pre-manufactured homes hide the great value of the golf course. Would definitely return. Good course and great value.

Must play - course you would never tire from playing

Played on a Sunday afternoon with my wife. Paired with very nice local ‘sunbird’ resident. As others have stated, don’t let the housing fool you. Unlike Shalimar Creek, this place is the real deal. Could play here every day and not get bored or disappointed. Good layout, interesting design, good all around conditions. Greens very good shape. Seems like lots of resident players, as many, many owner carts. Late afternoon great time to play as little play so sort of have the place to yourselves. Let the resident go on his own after nine, and never saw anyone else the hole back nine. I’d like to see a mixture of Black and Teal tees, which is what I’ll play next time. For sure there will be a next time during March stay in FL.

My Mistake

Had played here a few years ago, promised myself never to comeback. Read good reviews, did not remember been there before, so booked. There is no much good I can say about this course, except staff is great, and price ($4 with coupon) was why I choose this course. Despite price, no intentions of ever coming back. Had a very nice day with a very nice guy I was paired with.

Really Windy Day, but cost was $0!!

Wind was really blowing. Got paired up with 2 gals from Naples and another guy who was local. 1st time. Enjoyed the nice company and playing conditions. Wind made it a good test. Would/will return. Paid $0 with GN discount of some sort, so how can you beat that???

40 MPH winds but Great Time

Got pair with another gentleman and 2 hot-ticket ladies. Weather was cool/cold with really strong winds. Totally beat it around on 1st hole. I am sure they were all thinking, this guy's golf is really BAD! 1st hole was easiest hole on course - short par 5, dead down wind. Had a very enjoyable day. Course conditions, were good, but not great. Design is good (lots of water) but 14th hole should be blown up. Outside of that really enjoyed it. Companions made the day, would definitely return. With Golf Now reward, paid $0 so price could not be beat.

Luckily only paid for 9 holes

Wife and I got paired with another couple, both good players. They were also very disappointed in the conditions. I think layout was OK, nothing special, but course conditions poor at best.

Will not return and do not recommend, which I hardly ever do for a review.

Great Place, period!

Good course, good conditions, good price - hits all the marks. Would definitely return. 27 holes; played Magnolia and Dogwood. Only issue at all is high level of play from what I saw, and likelihood (from what I heard) that may not be offered on GolfNow in the future, so get there while you can.

Would highly recommend, especially for better players

Played with my wife ($30 for 2 after GN discount) and it was GREAT. Would definitely play there again. Very good conditions, greens were fast, and great layout. Number of holes, like #9 and some of the back-nine, have forced carries over water. For my wife, who was playing a regular 18 for just her 2nd round, she was able to survive, despite a few in the water. We allowed a couple of singles to play threw, otherwise we were by ourselves, which she really liked.

Would definitely come back, as lots of well designed and challenging holes, and very good conditions, at an unbelieveable price. Best course so far I've played in Myrtle area June 1-10.

Don’t hit it right!!

as many have said you can’t go right, at least not on the front nine. I played with local member weather was great, very enjoyable and at a low price. So good going back to play with the member on the weekend.

A Keeper

I played both Champion Gate course, the International and the National. Like both course very much - nice layouts and great conditions. I prefer the National, even though I played as poorly as possible. Long drive to 1st tee at the International, and long drive from 18th back to club house on the National.

Bring your A-game.

I'd play here again

GREAT Staff! Let me change tee time from AM to PM. Was paired with a very nice man from UK. I think layout is good, and you'll hit a lot of different clubs. Course conditions were good, as just finishing over-seeding. We were a 2-some, and on back nine to 4-somes lets us play through. All and all a good day, good weather (sunny and cool). I'd definitely go back, as I have played this course now a number of different times.

Not sure where good reviews come from

One thing good was the weather - sunny and warm. Hooked up with 2 very nice people, which made the day better, but the course is short, tricked up, narrow (good for practicing tee shots) and conditions were poor.

I would never return there. If you are good golfer much better places to play.

Not sure when you came out to play, might have been after all the rain. Come on back out and try it again. Its in great shape and a lot of fun.

Good conditions, and nice layout. Would definitely go back. Played as a single, and since weather was windy and cool for Florida, but perfect for me, as was like only one on the course, so breezed around.

Surprise, surprise

I was very surprised by this course. I would highly recommend to one and all. Layout is good, although there are some water hazards on back nine for which distance is unknown. Like #10, from blue tees hit nothing more than 200 yds. #8 is a GREAT par 3. The quirky part is that you must drive long distance to get to 1st tee, and then from 18 back to clubhouse. I think maybe design was for #10 to be #1, but then after 9, clubhouse along way off.

Not a walking course for sure - need a cart! Tee's could use a little more tender care, but conditions good, greens nice. I play by myself with 11:10 tee time (it rained earlier that day) and finished in 2:15. Going back this week same tee time, will hope pace of play and number of players remains the same.
