Much Improved
Found the course to be in fine condition. Enjoyed the round and got an excellent rate on GolfNow. Will play there again.
Don't let the cost keep you away
Having played this since maybe '13 vowed then not to play it again, then I saw the price for 18 early AM read a few of the latest reviews and here I am breaking another vow. I must say over the track is in great shape and the ground crews are working diligently to make it better (hats off). One draw back if can get the speed up on the front to that of the back I give them a grade B+, yet for the going $ rate for 18 you deserving of A for where you have come.
We are thrilled to hear that you have noticed improvement in our course! Thank you for your review. We appreciate you coming back to our course and giving us another chance to impress you!
Much improved!!
I had not played here since last year because the course was awful - greens were patchy, fairways brown, tee boxes were sand and nothing more - just nobody wanted to take any care of it. I returned having seen a few reviews that conditions had improved and I was pleasantly surprised. It is much improved although there is still some work to do. The greens, save for one or two, were in good shape and rolling pretty true. The fairways were hard to distinguish from the rough but the rough wasn't that tall anyway. There was actually grass in the tee box areas - gee, that's a switch. It was hot but I really liked the course. I will be returning with the understanding that the maintenance will continue to be a priority and the price doesn't jump too high too fast.
We are so happy that our reviews encouraged you to return and that you noticed improvement upon your return! Thank you for coming back and thank you for reviewing us. Come back soon!
A joke
They dont know how to set up tee time efficiently. Everyone is lined up like cattle then every tee time is like 2 min apart so after the first group goes everyone follows behind just waiting and waiting forever.. Slowest round every played.. Plus they will stick random people in your group with out asking you which is super annoying. Wouldn't waste the $ again..
We are so sorry that your experience on our course did not meet your expectations. We would like to further discuss this situation with you and make it right. Please send us an email at apopkateetimes@outlook.com. Thank you.
Great condition
Played out here 1 month ago and the greens were like putting at Augusta, best greens I have played in the orlando area. Now I know there are those out there who have played here over the years and said the back side was horrible, due to lack of care and watering, however that has been corrected and so you should not hestitate to give this course another shot and you will be pleased as to its awesome condition.They recently (1 month ago) punched the greens, which is a good thing, as it shows they are on top the their game as far as course management is concerned.

Course with character
Play the course often, usually it's in great shape. Right now the greens have been sanded so they are little bit of a challenge. Awesome for the price though.

WHAT A SHAME
What a shame this was a majestic course at one time. Run down and forgotten is the best way to describe. The staff could care less about you being there. If it makes it a another year it will be a a surprise.l

Go Play!!
Course is in decent shape. Two greens need some improvement but over all is a great playing course. Went off at 8:30 and finished at 11:45. Had a great time.
Thank you Eric2830819, for your 5 star review! We are happy to hear that you had a great time and will consider your feedback for improvement. Thanks again!

This course is a great value.
I've played here once before; however I think the course isn't marked well. It's confusing to get from the practice range to the 1st tee. I would suggest improved marking. The tee boxes are pretty beat up, but the fairways and greens were in pretty decent shape. No cart girls on a Saturday so make sure you have plenty of water. Course played well and it's a really good value. I will certainly play here again.
Hi mplegal-
We appreciate your feedback and suggestions. We will take this into consideration as we are constantly trying to improve our course. We look forward to seeing you on the course again soon!

Showing real signs of improvement
I live in the area so I've played this course a number of times, towards the ending of 2015 the course was really in need of some TLC so I started going else where to play .but to my surprise on my return for a quick round with my brother in the middle of May I was quite pleased with the improvement that I have seen , most of the tee boxes ,fairways,and greens are in good playing conditions.So for those who already know the course and those who wants to give it a try ,for the price you just can't go wrong.i say go give it a try and determine for yourself.

Communication...
It would of been nice if Golfnow would of mentioned that there were only nine holes open. The Highland part of the course was closed and not even mentioned at the course!!! Felt I should of been notified or given replay!!!

We look forward to hearing from you.
Irrigation work
It would have been nice to know that certain holes were closed due to irrigation work prior to booking. Club house landscaping and parking area are in need of serious upgrades. It's a good thing a bad day of golf is better than a good day at work. Schedule with caution as the cost of the course is not worth what you pay.

Wonderful Layout; Course Conditions Not So Much
Very memorable holes on this course. Fairways, in most cases, are wide and forgiving. Greens generally are large - certainly a plus. Condition of the course, however, is not so good. Greens have, in many cases, dead patches and are very bumpy - hard to putt. Fairway grass is sparse, but you can move ball to a grass patch. Sand traps and tees are good. A fun course to play because of the interesting holes, but don't pay more than $12 on a Hot Deal; you probably will be disappointed if you do. Definitely a fun practice course.
We appreciate you taking the time to write a review! We hope we will see you back soon!
Watch your belongings
First, I haven't played this course since last summer and now I will not play it again. We arrived an hour early hit range balls that were included in the booking but the only problem is that they closed the range that morning. We asked then to go off earlier and they complied but there was no ranger and groups were going out on top of each other and we were rushed the front nine. We stopped to have lunch and when we continued we were told by a group behind us that we we're in the middle of a local tournament. We were not informed of this from the pro shop and again no ranger. We went ahead and played but at one point we were accused of moving a close to pin card that we did not touch. After I got home, I realized that I left a vest on my cart, when I called back a lady said they were closed. I called back again and the pro shop said nothing was turned in, not even bothering to check. It's funny that the return cart area it's only accessible to employees, one of my group lost a head cover but it was found and returned by a player, at least they're honest. The course overall is in bad shape, no grass on greens or fairways. Save your money and play elsewhere, there are too many courses in Orlando that are better and treat you like they want your business.
Somebody who stops for a lunch on the turn and than complains not be treated preferentially should not have the right to write a review here! No matter how the course and the service have been…
I never wrote a comment to any review yet, but this time I really have to.
We are very sorry to hear about your experience with us. We would like to speak with you further, please email us at ApopkaTeeTimes@outlook.com. We look forward to hearing from you.
Needs some work ...
I've played this course a dozen times in the past couple of years. It has a very enjoyable layout and can be quite demanding if the wind is blowing hard. Currently the fairways are a bit thin, but roll the ball over to a good spot if needed and it's acceptable. Tee boxes also need some TLC but nothing that prevents a good shot. The greens however :( even though the majority of greens had grass you'd think they were basketball courts the way the ball bounced this way and that on the way to the hole. Just not enjoyable when putting comes down to luck when the ball zigs and zags heading toward the hole. A bit pricey at $24 - a course in this shape at this time is better priced around $16.

A look to the past
My family had a good time, the course needs a lot of water to bring it back to what I used to know for,
Thank you very much for the 5 star review! We appreciate you taking the time to let us know your feedback. We hope we will see you again soon!
Good layout slow play
I have played here several times. Very enjoyable layout. However conditions seem to be fading. Fairways very thin. Greens ok. I realize there are quite a few members. We player on a Thursday took almost 4 1/2 hrs +. We waited on every shot and every hole. No course ranger. IF you have time I would recommend the layout. Hope course condition will improve.
Thank you very much for taking the time to write about your experience with us! We apologize for the pace of play. We hope you will come back and see us again soon!
condition
poor conditions on fairways and greens very bumpy
We are sorry to hear that we did not exceed your expectations. We have been working hard on course conditions and hope you will come back and see us again.
Even $1 Is Too Much For this Course!!
Just Terrible conditions. There is No grass in the fairways, no grass on greens. The entire course is like made up of concrete blocks!! I regret that I went all the way out there on a Sunday and wasted my money on whatever it was I played on!!
We are very sorry to hear that we have not exceeded your expectations. Please email us at ApopkaTeeTimes@outlook.com to speak further. We look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks for the review! We're happy to hear that you enjoyed your round. Looking forward to having you back!
