Plenty of better options
The good - staff were friendly, and pace of play was fine. The ugly - everything else. Tee boxes chewed up; fairways full of dirt, mud and crabgrass; greens were useless - full of sand, bird poop, dry spots and weed clumps. The course does have plenty of practice facilities - putt, pitch and drive - but to call each one sloppy is being kind. Compare this muni to Okeeheelee - a muni in Palm Beach County and it’s not even close.
Not what it used to be!
The course needs attention, fairways full of unrepaired divots, some greens are full of dry spots , this course was in great shape , not anymore. Needs time off to regrow.
Better options almost anywhere
The good - employees were friendly, pace of play was good and layout is decent. The ugly - everything else. Tee boxes are messed up. Fairways have more dirt, mud and weeds than grass. Greens are a disaster. Dirt spots, clumps of crabgrass and sand. They are basically useless. And although the course has plenty of practice facilities - drive, chip and putt - all three are sloppy to say the least.
Out of towners golfing
This course has everything a beginner or amateur golfer needs. My dad brother and I all played from the whites and we had a great time. I love how forgiving this course is, I hit most of my drives to the right but the course was very clear and I could play all of my out of bounds balls. There is a ton of water to play over and around so yes we lost a lot of balls. The overall course conditions were great they take really good care of everything for the price. I highly recommend for out of towners that are looking to play a fun challenging course.
Much improved course and good value
I played this course regularly a couple of years ago and it was in poor condition. Beat up fairways and greens full of sand. They have done a great job to get the course looking much better. It's nowhere near the quality of other municipal courses like Miami Shores or Miami Beach but it's also 50% to 75% cheaper than those courses. This course also has a lot of great wildlife - herons, cranes, iguanas, and birds of all kinds. Overall very good value for money. I will be back to play.
Could be much better
This course has a nice layout. Client service is great.
Unfortunately, the greens are not very nice. Grass is too long and it does not hold the line.
Another major problem is that the course is far from being woman friendly. Way too long. Even the white tees that should be for seniors are too long. Par 4 of 394, 384, 372 or par 5 of 508 is way too long for seniors.
With such a nice design, this course deserves better conditions.
This course is very forgiving plenty a room extremely wide fairways
Great time hooked up with two single golfers, which made it a lot of fun and
Great round
Really enjoyed. Friendly lady in the shop. Some areas could use improvement but generally tee boxes, fairways, bunkers, and greens all in good shape. Great course layout. Walkable.
