Good for the money!

The greens were in decent shape, but the tee boxes and fairways were not so much. However, unlike some areas around(particularly The Villages), for the money, it was about the same conditions, for MUCH LESS! Thanks!

The fairways are bare.

Lay out is nice, fairways are in poor condition. No amenities provided and no restrooms on course.

Very busy

Afternoon play was slow. It was very busy with another golf course closed near by. Playing early is great. I’ll be playing next week here and can’t wait.

Fun Golf Course

Relatively short, but narrow. Challenging in places. A few holes that it would have been good to know where the best place to land the ball. Greens were not slow, but not really fast, either. We enjoyed our round.

Great price

The fairways are cut a little too short. The greens were looking a little better two months ago some of the weeds are starting to come back. I know the course staff has been working very hard to get everything back in tiptop shape.
