The Eagles Golf Club - Forest
About
Designed by Ron Garl and Gary Koch, the Forest Course at The Eagles Golf Club features the signature island-green sixth hole which rivals the famous 17th hole at the TPC at Sawgrass. The two outstanding championship courses at The Eagles Golf Club are kept in "tournament condition" year-round. As its name implies, much of Forest course winds through an impressive pine forest.

Great Course Greens Could Use Some Greens Work
Course was beautiful and well layed out. I did think if there are any complaints at all, that I was a little disappointed in the quality of the greens. Grass was very patchy and inconsistent. For that reason I think the price was a little high compared to others I have played while here on vacation.
Lots of fairways and greens in bad shape
Was overcharged for my round $10. Didn’t realize until I looked at my confirmation email. Almost every hole had many unplayable areas fairway to green. Had to lift and move on several greens to avoid bad spots in my line. Never saw a cart person for refreshments. Definitely was not worth the $70 per person I paid to play here.
Nice Layout but.....
I was a single and booked a 1035 tee time. I got there at 10 and bought a bucket of balls. The starter was working as hard as he could, but it seemed like they were just handing out tee times whether they were available or not. No exaggeration, there were about 12 - 15 carts lined up on the first tee on the Forest course. I got paired with a 3some with a 1055 tee time. We didn't tee off until 1145. We were told that once we tee'd off, we'd get moving along, but we were waiting on every hole which made it about a 5.5 hr round plus the 1.5 hour wait. That's unacceptable. Such a shame, too, cause its a nice course. I won't be going there again.
Decent Course, Unbelievably Slow Pace
I think this was my last round at the Eagles - solid courses and a good price, but this is the third time in a row I have played and have not been close to starting on time.
Had a 1:07 tee time. Didn't get a golf cart until , and didn't tee off until 2:15, and only finished 16 holes until we had to go in at 6:30. Seems like they booked WAY too many tee times and don't have the capability to serve that many people. Will stay away from now on until it gets a little less crowded. Worth it to pay more for a better experience somewhere else. Just a bummer to wait 15-20 minutes at every hole.
Nice setting, poor maintenance
This Forest course is a much better scenic journey than the Lakes. We aren’t looking for a top notch golf experience for $64 but the tee boxes and greens were more in the sub-$20 level. I was impressed by the staff and the snack cart and ranger. They were all friendly and personable.
Good recreational golf course
The course was nice to play for an afternoon 9 hole recreational round. Average difficulty and some holes were challenged with rough fairways and greens. We had a nice time.
Great course; Excellent value
Had a great time playing this course. Really nice layout, and I would play again. Front nine was slow, but once we were able to play through. the back nine moved along without issue.
18 carts on first tee at tee time
18 carts were in front of my group of two at our tee time. Over an hour wait to tee off past tee time. Horrible. Same deal with no “fog delay,” enjoy a six and a half hour round. Either the tee times need to be more spread out or management needs to clean their operation up. Either way this place makes for a painful afternoon of golf. Don’t waste a beautiful day being frustrated!
Course is fine but issues
Waited over an hour for a cart and then played over a 5hr round. They need to do a better job of spreading out tee times and having enough carts. Seems to be a recurring issue
Disappointed Again
It had been a while since playing The Eagles - Forest and decided to give it another try. I like the course, especially the back 9. Even though they can't control early am fog which significantly delayed all starts, they can control course maintenance. The greens were inconsistent and overall the course was not in great shape for the price paid. The guys behind us kept hitting into us despite our inability to play any faster due to the slow play in front of us. Never saw a ranger, who could have assisted with the pace the of play. Unfortunately, I don't think we will be back.
Over booked with poor pace of play
I have played here 4 times and 3 of them were over 4-5 hour rounds. Yesterday was the worst. Starting times were 45min behind, and once we started the round took 5hr 20min. Didn’t see a ranger 1x pushing pace of play. You would think they would have one, especially being that everyone had to wait almost an hour past their booked times to start. 6 hours to get through a single round of golf. To make it worse we saw a beverage cart 1x the entire round on hole 5, and then not again for the entire rest of the round. Paying $78 for a 6hr round with no beverage cart. Won’t ever be going back
This place needs better management
We live here, we stop going 6 or so months ago, the tee boxes were terrible, pace of play just awful!.
I decided to try it again, when we got there they say it was a bit backed up, just before our tee time the guy say, 30 or so minutes late , he said they had over 500 players, and that it was going tobe a 6 hours or so round.
We got a refund actually the guy in the shop say, that all the locals were doing the same thing, that they had lots of out of town golfers.
I get it you need to make money but shouldn’t given a fun round be more of a priority? You can easy space out tee times every 10 minutes ..
This were nice courses the last couple of years is just bad, needless to say, we won’t even bother to go there in a long while, hopefully they change management.
Great Day Golf
Started off slow, thirty minute delay before starting, due to backup. As we slowly went from hole to hole the backup subsided. The course was in great shape and I had a great time with my family.
Nice layout, good greens and beautiful nature!
Overall a nice round on a nice layout. Great weather and pace of play. The greens were true and in good shape. The fairways were decent but a bit patchy. Tee boxes were decent, Staff was nice and the club is nice. The things I really like about this course are the nature aspect and the layout. A lot of wildlife to include gators, deer and eagles. The holes are not on top of each other.
