Disappointing

Course not in good shape. Needs water. Did like being able to play a regulation 9 and exec 9. Friendly, helpful staff.

Very Nice Layout W/Nice Scenery

We ( Myself & Neighbor ) had a 10:45 am tee time.
Got there at 10:15 am and was greeted by Course Ambassador, explained the course and told us to start on the Sanctuary and when done with that 9 holes then we would do the Meadows for another 9 holes.
Tees and Greens very nice and price was good for the 18 hole round. Thought course was a great challenge and fun to keep in the narrow fairways. Will do again very soon I hope.

You get what you pay for

Nice course, good layout, very thin fairways. For $16 to play the Championship 9, it's not a bad deal, but you have to move your ball even on the fairway to get any grass under it.

Value for money course

As mentioned above, cannot fault the rates charged for 18 holes with a cart.Probably the main criticism of the course was the greens. They were pretty poor, lots of "bald" spots on the majority. Does require work and if so, it would be a "wee gem!"

Nice day at Pennebrooke

Very friendly people. The Fairways are typical for this time of year, Some of the rough was bare. Close by the Villages.

Interesting Course

Cute little course with an interesting layout. It was in great shape for the most part. A couple of the greens were sketchy from players not properly repairing their ball marks. GOLFERS TAKE CARE OF YOUR BALL MARKS AND DIVOTS! The staff was great and very friendly. I got paired up with two young guys Ryan and Taylor that were super nice. We buzzed around 18 holes in a little over 3 hours. I will definitely go back.

Fun course, fairly priced

Don't expect top notch conditions on the fairways or in the traps, but you can count on smooth greens and interesting holes on this pleasant course. The Sanctuary is the full length nine that will keep your interest, while the other two are nice executive length layouts. Overall, the courses play short, so your driver may not get used all that often. At this price in January, when most courses are charging far more, you won't find much to complain about here.

Relaxed short course in nice setting

The course was not crowded - great for our beginner (slow) style of play. A few holes of the 9 we played were near course-side homes, but most bordered woods and ponds, a nice natural setting with a number of great blue herons, egrets, and anhingas on display. We enjoyed playing, and will do so again.

Nice course, played it a couple of times before. 3 sets of 9. 2 executive and 1 championship 9. We like it. Not emaculate but very nice. A nice place for the average golfer to play.

It really is just a 3 star course

This really is a very middle of the road course, nothing special, nothing so bad, lots of weeds both on and off the greens, although mowed nicely. Traps not raked, porta johns. Its what you expect at this price, nothing more, nothing less. I really cannot see how folks can give this a 4 or 5 star, unless they've only played cow pastures in their past. Its pleasant little course, as I said, its good for the money. I'll come back and play, it fits my budget.

Slow Play

Waited on 13 of 18 holes. Greens really needed rolling and bare patches filled in. Players in front of me very slow. Tallied scores on the green with a bunch of idle chit chat. Members now doubt and never offEred to let me play through. The Staff attendant was very nice and did not charge my wife a rider fee. However I will not make the drive again.

Worth it!!!

I played the Sanctuary and the Oaks. The Oaks is basically a executive course. The Sanctuary course was a great 9 holes. The layout was perfect from the back tees. Not PGA long but great for amateur players. Greens were a little slow because of soft greens. Very responsive to spin.

Best Bang for Your Buck!

I remember a few years ago you couldn't pay to play this course. Kudos to John and staff for making this course a great experience. Greens well kept. The layout is fun and challenging for a all skill levels - especially the infamous Par 3s on #2 and #11. I'm a regular now...

Variety

First 9 was great, good long drive, some good set-up type, fairways in good shape, greens in verry good shape, not the typical rock hard super fast of Florida greens, Awsome high road through a swampy area, the back 9 was short and shorter, but fun course to play, greens had some bare spots but still very playable, ill go back when its not so windy. Very enjoyable.
