Great course

Great course, excellent staff. Greens aren't perfect but all else is. Best bunkers I've seen in a long while. I reside in Tampa, so it's a long trip but well worth it.

Presently surprised

Haven't played the course in a couple of years and for the life of me I can't understand why. It is in wonderful shape and has a great layout. The staff in the pro shop was friendly and the starter was entertaining. Didn't have time to use the restaurant as a couple of our guys had other commitments but will try it out next time. Glad to have a new course in our rotation.

Great course

Only got in 12 holes due to rain but worth the trip from Tampa anyway. Very good layout and the friendliest staff in central Florida.We played the Crooked Cat and will return soon to try the Panther.

Great layout

Beautiful course, in great condition. Fairways are very nice and the greens look beautiful. The only negative thing that can be said is that the greens may be the slowest in the state of Florida.Regardless, it is worth the money and the drive to Clermont.

Great layout

Really a beautiful course. Greens in nice shape but a little too slow. Lots of changes in elevation for a Florida course. Drive over an hour and a half to play the course and it was worth every minute.The 19th hole was a little limited but the friendliness of the staff more than compensated. We will make the trip again.

New favorite course

17 of the best greens I've seen in this area. One green on the front 9 had a couple of sparse spots but still a decent green. The fairways were very good, the staff was friendly, the practice green was true and the beer at the 19th was cold. If they had a driving range, the place would be perfect. It will definitely be in our rotation.

Much better

Played this course last summer (during rainy season) and it was horrible. Played yesterday and it was great. The fairways were very good and the greens for the most part were true and fast. Three or four of the greens were a little worn, likely due to much play by our northern visitors. Saw plenty of wildlife including rabbits, snakes (harmless) and at least 25 alligators. Overall it was a wonderful day.

Gem in the rough

Friends and I will travel up to an hour and a half to play every week. In the Tampa area that gives us access to hundreds of courses. This course is located at our outer limit. In the past year we’ve played at least 40 different courses. This one we all agree is the best. The fairways are outstanding and the greens are beautiful (maybe a tad on the slow side) and true. The fairways are just narrow enough to make it a challenging day. This is not your typical Florida flat course, the fairways are rolling and most of the greens are elevated. Above all, the place is beautiful, scenic and amazingly maintained. This course is going to the top of our power rotation. Worth the drive.

Reliable

Very good value for the cost. The greens were in excellent shape, fast and true. The grass on the fairways was a little sparse and the tee boxes should be leveled. I found myself consistently teeing off with the ball above or below my feet..The speed of play was great, we were done in three hours and there was a foursome right behind us. I will play again.

Outstanding day

Played the Lakes course and it was in near perfect condition. Played the Forrest course last week and it was in perfect condition. Buddies and I try to play a different course every week and will travel up to an hour and a half to play. The consensus at the end of the day was that this course was one of the best, if not the best course we have played this year. It is definitely in our power rotation.

Big hitters will think the course is a little short. I thought it was perfect. Fairways were in excellent conditions and the greens were very fast and true. The ranger was polite but appeared to be a little timid with the members.

Great condition

This may be the only course in the area that is not cart path only. The fairways and greens are in excellent condition. Hard to believe but those playing this course actually filled divots and fixed ball marks on the greens. It's a little out of the way, but well worth the extra miles.

We were cart path only due to all the rain in Florida but the fairways, greens and bunkers were in wonderful shape. Good deal on Golfnow and will play again soon.

Very good condition

We had a rainstorm the night before we played and the course was a little wet but not bad considering the amount of rain. The greens were slow because they were not able to mow, however all but three were in very good condition. The fairways were in excellent shape. I will play it again soon.

Very nice condition, great staff.

The course was in great shape. The greens were fast and undulating making it quite challenging. We were a twosome and played in 3 ¼ hours. Saw the ranger at least 4 times. Lost a club head cover and mentioned it to the ranger on one of his passes. Three holes later, he returned it with a smiled. I will be back with plenty of friends.

Good layout - poorly managed

Greens were in good condition. Grass on the fairways was sparse. Course management was non existent. It took us 5 ¼ hours to play. Twosomes and foursomes magically appeared in front of us. While preparing to putt on a par three, a ball from the foursome behind us landed on the green. Did not see a ranger.
