Not worth the money

I liked the layout but the course was not worth the money I paid to play. I can play courses for 40% less than I paid today but they are in better condition.

Blue Sky Review

Used to play here weekly and it was always a fun and friendly course and overall in pretty good shape.
Last week is was nearly unplayable. Tee boxes were torn up, greens were inconsistence and most were covered in bumps and sand. Just horrible green conditions. Fairways were fair but nothing compared to any nearby course competitors.
For $65 there are just so many better options. Its embarrassing how far this course fell off.

Greens are in poor shape

The greens have bald spots and sand was spread on the greens and appeared to have been sprayed green to look decent but cannot hide the poor condition. Compare to nearby courses the prize is expensive considering the course condition.

Greens are in terrible shape, fairways are in decent shape. Course needs some work to be charging the amount they charge for an early tee time.

Nice layout

First time playing this course. I enjoyed the layout, there were some interesting holes with some elevation change, something you don’t see too much of in Florida. The pace of play wasn’t too bad, I went out as a single and the slower groups in front of me we nice enough to call me through. The tee boxes need a little tlc, they were a bit chewed up, the fairways were in decent shape, the greens for the most part were in great shape and rolling true, I’d much rather have bad tee boxes than bad greens. I’d definitely go back.

Blue Sky newbie

We chose this course from a few others we haven't played in a while (or ever for me) and the layout was a bit confusing. The staff were nice and the course was fun. A few greens were in bad shape but it was nice. Turns out they had a party going in that evening so got some music at the end of the evening lol.

Overbooked

Even with many open spots on GolfNow, the course was extremely overbooked. Just my wife and I playing, which she plays 2x a year and extremely slow paced, and we still had to wait 20-30 minutes to hit. Left after the 13th hole as the waiting got to the point where it was no longer fun. The upgrades to the amenities are a plus with a Top Golf type driving range. I would go back during off hours in the week since it’s a cheaper option but would recommend to avoid on the weekends unless you sneak a 24 pack of cold beers in.
