Excellent conditions

I have played here a number of times and I've always enjoyed this course. This time the weather was chilly but the conditions were superb. Great attention was paid to maintenance. Even the sand traps were raked. Beautifully greens putted true looking forward to going back soon

Great value;

Played here for the first time last week and posted a review. Decided to try it again and it did not disappoint. Was paired with three other players. Pace of play was good. Greens excellent and challenging. Will continue to put this on my golf itinerary

A pleasant surprise!

Unexpected, excellent course redesigned and challenging only a par 70. But the par3s are relatively long as are the par. 5.s Par 4s are relatively short but not as easy as they look. Greens are fairly large and roll true. I have been playing courses in the Orlando area for years and this one escaped me until now. I will definitely go back for another go at it. Staff helpful and friendly

Great track

Traveling from Cocoa Beach to fort Lauderdale. I was looking for a good golf course to play on the way. I was in luck when I was able to book a tee time at Lost lakes. Unfortunately the course was soggy due to heavy rains and it was cart path only. However, it is a beautiful layout, country club conditions and fully enjoyed my self in spite of the weather. Also had one of the best hot dogs at the turn. Put this on my list of courses to play in the future

Not Your Typical Florida Course

Hidden away in a very nice residential area is a wonderful layout with Rolling Hills and fast greens Fairways are well maintained many greens are elevated with difficult pin placements you need to make adjustments right away if you are used to a flat Florida course staff was great and helpful a very enjoyable and challenging around no water holes on the front nine but plenty of sand traps

Great course

Got rained out last month and gave it another try. Not my first time. I was a single and played behind a very slow 4some who were having fun but had no clue about golf etiquitte. Finally I got to play through and the pace was much more enjoyable. Front 9 wide open but back 9 no so. Greens smooth not really fast, Fairways and traps well maintained. Unfortunately, the restrooms on the course were not very clean and looked like they had not been maintained on adaily basis. Otherwise a good day out on a very nice course.

Good layout but needs maintenance

This course was originally built in the '60s over time. Course has needed maintenance and currently could use more TLC hole markers which were granite were faded and barely legible arrows indicating where the next hole was were either missing or confusing. Front nine was recently aerated but the greens were fine. Fairways average some challenging halls with creeks and or water overall okay but I probably would not rush to play there again 2

A Day in the Country

Have played this course numerous times over the past several years and have always enjoyed it this time when I arrived before noon the course was empty of golfers except a few As a single player this made for a very fast round ,I.e. under two and a half hours. However, I found all the greens to be very slow which was unusual for this course and the fairways although well maintained had a lot of crabgrass type growth which almost gave it a rough like look. Great value for the money will definitely come back again

Not ready for theChallenge

The International course is long with lots of big and small sand traps waiting for you. If you are fortunate enough to avoid them numerous ponds await. Played in the pm thinking no one would be out there because of the 99 degree temp. Not much shade except in your cart. Pace was slow and I did not finish in part due to heat. I will play here again. Excellent value for the $$. A nice amenity is complimentary valet parking and 2 bottles of ice cold water in the cart with towels.

Excellent resort course

The good news is that the course is challenging and well maintained for a shorter course(no par 5s').The bad news is that it is only 9 holes which makes for a logjam at the turn. The course is part of a Marriott Vacation Club resort, and tends to attract average golfers at best. The holes alternate par 4/par 3 , but can be challenging.Greens and fairways are excellent. 18 holes can be played under 3 hrs and if you have a backup at the first tee, go to the Grille for great food and a beverage .
I will return soon.

superb greens

This course was on my list to play in the orlando area. I was pleasantly surprised to find a beautiful layout with large well maintained greens and fairways. First hole deceptive. A short par 4 but after that the holes get more difficult. back 9 is very different from front 9. Finished 18 in less than 3 hrs which is incredible. Not crowded when I played with a tee time of 11am.
I would definitely play here again.

Top shelf course

Played here some years ago and decided to give it another try. I was not disappointed. Great conditions.Back nine has some scary holes if you are a short hitter.Long par 3s as well. A great track!

Ghosts of the past

I decided to play this course because of the history of having the Citrus open here in the late 1950s and 1960s it is an attractive layout with pines mixed with Palms as a senior golfer I did not wish to be over challenged and played from the whites it was very enjoyable and course in good shape not much in the way of amenities however would play here again there are not many affordable courses that you can say you walked the same Fairways as Arnold Palmer and Gary Player among other notables

Neglected Creek

A good layout with no attempt at maintenance. Tee boxes and fairwars acceptable but greens were atrocious. More grass in sand traps than on greens. Even calling them greens is a stretch. Numerous " temporaries" that appear to be permanent. No sign of any repair work whatsoever.
Hard to un derstand why no $$ is put into this once fine course.I have seen better cow pastures.
Should not be on Golf Now.

Harder than it looks

Beautifully maintained links style course, which is wide open,little to no shade trees. Greens large and fast making 3 putts common. Challenging holes with and water. Choose a tee box that fits your game or it will be a long day.Not a course I would play regularly, but if you think you have your A game go for it.

Target golf/links style

Wow! Fabulous layout around a wildlife preserve. Sand taps and pot bunkers abound. You must know what club to hit and where you want to position the ball for your next shot. There are few trees and little shade so be cautioned if you play this course in July/August. Ledbetter Golf Academy also on premises. Long cart ride to get to first tee,. Greens moderate but not easy to read.
I would like to play this course again.

A Tale of 2 Nines

Part of Marriott Resort. Very well maintained. Course wet/cart path only which made for a 4 1/2 hr round. Front nine very different from back nine and very challenging. The 18th hole will make or break your score. It is a 200 yd par 3 with an island green. No room for error.

A Country Course

This upscale course is45 minutes away from the Orlando resort courses, hotels , highways and jet noise. A serene and attractive layout , this course is what golf used to be and should be, The only sound you hear is your club striking the ball and the birds nearby.Worth the trip.
