Unnecessarily rushed

I have played San Carlos over a dozen times in the last couple of years. They have made some great improvements last year adding some bunkers, re-working existing bunkers and adding plants and trees. This week the rate of play was typical, 1:55 for the first nine holes, a 5-minute break at the turn, and 1:50 for the back nine. One of the marshals was driving around for a bit on the back and at hole 13 told us to speed it up for some reason. There was no-one pushing us. My wife is very self-conscious about holding people up so she sat out hole 13 despite me telling her that there was no issue. So we finished hole 13 a couple of minutes faster only to reach hole 14 with the golfers in front of us on the T-box. So being rushed for nothing. I will go back to San Carlos again, but it will be a while.

Decent track. Some greens were still a little rough.

Above the Mendoza line on quality, but like everything else in this area a little overpriced. But, I guess that’s what the market will bear!

Great time

Beautiful day and paired with 2 beautiful women. Pace a little slow but didn’t care. Nice frat party on back 9 on weekends. Nicer courses in the area but not for the price.

Great atmosphere, rough greens

This is a great course overall. Best staff in the business. Always welcoming, friendly and helpful. The group I was paired up with were great too. While the course remains an excellent value throughout the year, $99 round while the greens were in such rough conditions seems high. Such is golf in SWFL this time of year!

Nice Layout… but

The greens were in poor condition- don’t know if this is temporary as it looked like they had been treating them - the pace of play is not good and no evidence of Marshals attempting to speed things up But for 40 dollars maybe you shouldn’t expect too much

Disappointed in the condition of the greens. If they are in that condition during this time of the year lower greens fee would be more reasonable

Horrid greens and pace of play was unacceptable.

The pace of play was just too slow and greens were patchy and uncut. Poor value for current rates.
