Play It!

One of the best courses around! Just play it, you won't be disappointed. If I had to find something negative, it'd be the short club house hours. It'd be nice if they stayed open a little later...but overall, great experience!

One of the best in the area!

Great track...excellent condition...greens are a little beat up, but only due to the high amount of play...fairways are perfect! Lots of fun!

Great experience!

We had a great time at Hibiscus! Every staff member was super-friendly and actually seemed excited to have us there (sadly becoming a rare thing). The only negative was the course condition…although I attribute that to the consistently packed schedule. It wasn’t bad…just heavily played on. Pricing was high, but in line with every other SW Florida course…they’re all high…lol. The have a great restaurant/bar! Nice carts. Fairly east track…there was water around but I didn’t lose a ball…hazards weren’t in play very often. All in all, I’d definitely go back!

Nice course

Maybe I went in with expectations too high, but I was under-impressed with today's experience at The Estate. This course is not on the PGA resort property, but rather nestled inside a gated community. There was no signage; it was difficult to find the clubhouse. The staff was nice enough, but it lacked the "wow" factor that I was hoping for. No food or drink options except for a gatorade and granola bar.

The practice facility was nice. Free range balls are always appreciated. The bag attendant and starter were very friendly and laid back. I was there at a quieter time of day and was able to play as a single which made the pace of play perfect at 2.5 hours!

Greens were PHENOMENAL! Fairways were really nice. Rough hadn't been manicured in awhile. Lost a couple balls due to it...although maybe a few more fairway hits would've helped....lol.

All in all...nice course...was just hoping for a more amenities to round out the day.

I think it's worth your time to at least play once!

Great course...slow play.

Beautiful course! Unfortunately we had a foursome that was taking way too long in front of us. Had the entire course backed up, but the Marshall didn't do anything about it. That's sad, because it leaves a bad taste in my mouth...not really interested in playing it again. But clubhouse staff was exception...course was in great shape...greens were perfect!!!

Love the remodel!

This course needs to be on your Orlando golf short list! I love what they've done with in the remodel. #4 is still my favorite, but the #18 island green was the perfect way to cap off a great round. The starter, Bill, was super-friendly which set the tone from the beginning. Trust me, you won't be disappointed...play it!

Great course...a little attention to service would make it incredible!

Finally played Gateway National after years of wanting to...great decision! Best course in the area as far as conditions are concerned. Fairways are immaculate. Greens rolled true. Tons of fun! The only drawback is the service. Played at 12:30 on a Sunday and the guys in the pro shop seemed more annoyed that I was there to play than grateful. I’m not looking to be massively catered to...but a smile would go a long way. Same goes for the cart guys. Standing around on their phones not interested in helping me figure out where to start. A little attention to detail like that and this course would be AMAZING in every aspect!
