Didn’t feel like a toon course

The course is in great shape. However it seems not all three nines are of the same quality. Playing east to north brought on a significant downgrade in course value/experience. The north course especially was disjointed, long distances between relatively bland or forced holes were the overall experience. Seems they would have been better off with a single championship course and an executive 9.
Tee time management was also pretty rough. Got in about an hour before tee time, yet we got our cart moments before our tee time & missed a chance at the range and practice green. We wound up waiting on the first tee for about 10 minutes post tee time. They then let off twilight golfers ahead of us on the back nine and we never got to finish due to this.

Nice public 27 hole course

In high season, it can be very busy. On this day, they ran out of carts but staff was quick to turn them over as players came in. We were not delayed. Pro shop and curb staff were friendly, eager and on point.

We played North and South courses. North is tight while South is wider with more water. Fairways and tees in good shape for high season. Greens the same. Have not played East but hear it’s the better of the 3.

Beverage cart was seen only once. Snack bar can be sketchy and can suddenly be sold out of items or simply closed. Range with floater balls on site. All in all, can’t complain as it’s surrounded by one high end CC after another.

Great staff, fun day

Enjoyable day. Staff is extremely friendly. Greens are in good shape. Tee boxes and fairways are in need of a lot of help. Still fun to play.

Bad pace an tight layout

Rangers could do a better job speeding up play. Greens staff could improve conditions.

Not a bad place to play. Conveniently located. A little over priced for the conditions.

Nice but expensive

For the price, the range balls should be included + a couple of drinks.

Decent

Ok course but like much of Naples public golf, overpriced. Average course conditions at best. May go back only because they aren't many good options.

Played 3 times in area. This course was most expensive. The pro shop was good. The course was in good shape but layout was pretty ordinary. I would recommend other courses first.

2nd chance same review

I want to like this course as it is located in a great area. Sadly this course needs a complete overhaul. It’s just not up to par with anything else in the area. It’s in need of a redesign and new course management

Dreadful condition

I actually liked the course layout but the condition of the fairways was probably the worse I have ever played and I have been playing frequently for over 30 years .
Sone of the fairways reminded me of a poorly ploughed field .
In my opinion they have no right to take our money to play this course . They should shut it down until the damage can be rectified .
