Getting better

Temporary greens on back 9 due to overseeding. Course is improving and a bit challenging for a beginner. Unfortunately there is not a Marshall on the course. At one point we had 4 groups in one hole at a time!

DO NOT

I put some blame on GOLF NOW for not letting people know how bad this course is in. The best thing that I saw was the BATHROOM and that was poor. the golf course has what I would say the worst greens I have seen in FLORIDE!!!!!!!!TEMPORY GREENS ON a lot of holes and those that they let you play on were the worst!!!!! THAT IS WHY I PUT GOLF NOW on some of the blame for not letting us know a head of time I will ask them to respond to me DIRECTLY!!!!! and post what they say.

Nice layout, poor condition

This used to be a lovely course but it has not been well maintained. We were told there were some temporary greens on back 9. Turned out to be all but 10 and 18 and the condition of the temporary “greens” was appalling. The ordinary greens were in poor shape too and didn’t seem to be being worked on. What are they doing?

Getting better

The front 9 was better than the last time. They reopened the back 9 but have temporary greens. Not the best but I know they are trying to refurbish the course.

Needs help

Course conditions were terrible. Grass was so high we lost numerous balls. Cart paths are super bumpy and missing pavement. Disappointed in condition.

Needs work

Understand that the course is trying to improve, but the front 9 needs attention. Grass was horribly high, lost several balls. Fairways need weeded. Disappointed.

Disappointed but hopeful

I liked the fact that practice balls were included in the round but was told upon arrival that only 9 holes was open. Nothing was said on GolfNow. The part of the course I was able to play was a nice layout but was showing signs of neglect. There was a broken sprinkler in the middle of hole 8 just spraying water randomly. Hopefully when the other nine is finished, they will do some work on this nine as well.

Note: if a course is not fully open, there should be a notation on the GolfNow website. Really unacceptable.

Disappointed but hopeful

Unfortunately when we arrived, we were told that we could only play the front nine twice to complete 18 holes. The course was not in good condition and appeared neglected. I have wanted to play this course for a while and was just disappointed at not being told ahead of time through GolfNow that only 9 holes was open. One really positive aspect is that range balls are included in your round. It was definitely nice to be able to warm up on the range for no extra money prior to playing. Hopefully when they finish rehabbing the other nine the whole course will be brought back to its original form.
