Embarrassing
Worst course ever! worst greens I have ever played on. 80 % holes, dead areas etc. don't they have a greens keeper? Well he should get fired on the spot. The minimum a course should take of is the greens. I can't believe they charge 31 dollars! It should be free!!!!! There is no excuse for such a embarrassment. there is no pride in that place.
Poor conditions
I played this course because the pros had played here years ago. Too many years ago obviously. The greens were the slowest I’ve ever been on . Usually a Municipal course has money to keep it in good shape because of tax dollars to spend. The greens keeper should have his pay cut.. What a waste of money. It was like putting on a fairway. Too bad because the layout was pretty nice. Don’t waste your money on this place
Not Many Choices in Dade County
Public courses in Miami hard to find. Either expensive or poor quality. This one falls under poor quality but still charged $50 on a Saturday after 11:00. Greens were decent except for 2 that were unplayable (had to play automatic 2 putt on these they were so bad). Fairways a combination of pressed weeds and a little grass. Very thin and hard to get under the ball. Rough was inconsistent and a combination of weeds and gnarly grass. Driving range closed so no warm up except for a very small putting green that is almost impossible to chip around.
Closed for month - no improvement - damaged Greens
Most greens are damaged. Evident hurricane damages. Greens are in trouble. Only the west got infected, if you can believe it.
Layout re-routed, front and back nine switched, but the proshop and starter neglect to advise.
Walking allowed out of peek hours.
Nothing to write home about.
I have played this course a few times now over this past year, and over all it is an all right course. The fairways are a bit over grown everytime i play and the greens look like they go neglected for a few days a week. The layout of the course does present its challenges, but by far the most challenging part of this course are the neighborhood kids around this golf course. Oe more then one occasion there are birthday parties in the backyards of these houses backed up to the tee boxes with loud distracting music or kids running out on the course in the middle of a hole. So while this course is pretty fair for the price of golfnow.com I wouldnt recommend this to become a staple of a golf routine nor would I recommned anyone travels very far to play this course.
Godd course but....
I liked the layout of the course and it was challenging enough. What I didn't like was the condition of the greens. There were a lot of bare and deseased spots on each green which had a direct affect on the roll of the puts. The fairways were in decent shape especially after the 4 inches of rain the day before.
I think if they would lower the price by $10 - $20 during the summer months it would be worth playing again.
A Great Course for Intermediate to Advanced Golfers
The course requires planning. There are plenty of Bunkers and Water Hazards to catch your ball if you are too aggressive. It's a lot easier to play from the fairway than the rough so, keeping you ball in the short grass will definitely make for a more enjoyable round. I look forward to playing it again soon.
Great course
Really challenging, tight fairways, lots of water, makes you really think of shot selection. Course is in great condition, well manicured fairways and bunkers. Greens are perfect condition except for a few holes.
West Course is a good round
Not for the timid golfer. Challenging forced carries, strategically placed bunkers, and great site lines.
West Course
Greens very well kept and enjoy the overall course
Great greens and fast pace of play
Weekday play was excellent. We finished in 3 1/2 hrs.
The greens were in great shape with a few holes where there was spotty repair underway.
The sand traps were great (nice soft sand) or poor (thin rock hard sand). For the price, this was an excellent deal. Fairway were fine as were the tee boxes. Great fun if you are conveniently located near this course.
Greens nice Fairways poor
The conditions of the fairway were fair at best. Tee boxes were void of grass in some places. The greens were in good shape and easy to put. The roll was true on the greens. Practice greens were in rough shape it sand and rough spots everywhere.
Holiday course
Nice easy course,tees could be better but greens lighting quick. Narrow entrances to greens.
yes
I wil play this course again good vauld for overall
