Fantasies Greens

Overall course was above average, with the best greens. While the course was not crowded Xmas eve, a twosome slower everything down. No ranger working that day.

Rises above the rain again

Besides being a nice course with a difficult layout, it once again was dry when almost everyone course in the Tampa Bay Area was either closed, or cardpath only.

Poorest condition in years, almost NO grass anywhere

sorry to say this course has seen much better days. the front 9 greens were close to grassless, the back 9 was better, but still not even average. Grass in the fairways was at best minimal, even found places were lift and place would have been difficult to find a decent lie. bought a coupon so the was low, but would not consider playing again in the future.

with courses closing close by you would think they could get enough play to keep the course up, but guess not. this may be the next one in that line...

Poor office pro staff..

ended up teeing off 45 minutes later than our tee time due to the course overbooking with several large groups this day. asked pro if we could tee off on 10 are no one had made the turn in the 20 minutes since we arrived at the course. he said NO. there would be players making the turn now. while he waited for the 1st tee to open up it was another 15 minutes before anyone made that turn.

the round itself took just over 5 HOURS due to the crowded conditions. would think before playing here again. by the way while we waited on the 1st tee, the final 4some the that group told us there were actually 4 different groups on the course on Thursday and we should plan on a ver long round, they were used to it he said...

Poor attitude and poor management....

Nice price, horrible condition

Greens are very poor, no grass on most...fairways very scarce, did not OVERSEEDED with rye. No range on course. Waited on every single tee box plus on numerous second and third shots. Would only play this course as a pure practice round. Shot results hard to evaluate due to lack of grass in the fairways.

Find it and play it

Quite a nice city owned course. Greens and fairways were A+. Fairways were A. Layout was B+. Experience was an A. Overall value was A (just a tad high even for a Sunday morning at $44. Weekday senior rate of $28 makes this A+..try it you will like it. We found this on the net as we were driving from Florida to St. Louis and looked for a place to stay and play

What are you from Kentucky?? Here is Middle Tennessee our rates are a little higher ($65-80 typically) due to the shortage of courses in the area. Stay in Florida if you're going to complain about the prices. $44 is a great value to play OFGC.

Always play Lake Jovita when you get the chance

played the North course and while the greens had been verticut within the past 1-2 weeks the greens were wonderful. The terrain, the fairways, the ruff, and the greens all ranked as excellent. The only flaw was the lady tees. They were pretty barren of grass in general. But with a tee who cares.

Give it a try if you can...

While the overall conditions are OK, but greens are above average. The fairway are sparse but are being cared for and will continue to get better over the next few months. The new owners are trying really hard to bring this course back to where it was 10 years ago.
Give them some help by playing it.

If you don't pitch in low play will once again sink this course...

Nice value this time of year..

Overall nice round of golf. My only issue was the starter did not pair up twosomes letting multiple ones go out without pairing them up. Would have been a faster round if they had down so....Waited when should not have been necessary...

Really good value for Florida in November...

Prices go up beginning in November. For the $20 we pair per golfer, nice golf value. Greens are good, fairways could use more grass overall. Front 9 more difficult the back 9.

Nice $$ for 18..

Having Played CC many times before I was surprised to see so much weed grass throughout the entire 18 holes. Not a real issue just a lesser maint point of view. Tees were below average, fairways were grassy, rough was weed grass and the greens were OK (sandy). I had asked the day before as I booked my res the last time they worked on the greens and the guy said it had been a while. Not so. My wife asked the attendant when she paid how the course was and he said he did not know. In both cases one would assume the staff could tell you about the conditions.

All in all a good value for the $18 we paid. Course was NOT crowded at all and we never ran into anyone in front of us as a 3some.

Good Luck and good golfin'
