Slow ride

The rounds here, even during the week days are over 4 hours. The course was wet from a large amount of rain the previous day.

Great Greens

The greens are smooth and roll true. The only drawback to the conditions are the dormant conditions, which is not a fault of the course, but a factor. The greens are some of the best in the entire region.

Nice Course

The course was in really nice shape, the greens were receptive and a good speed. The holes were lined with ropes so there are a lot of cart path only areas, which was not a problem for me.

Great Conditions

The course is in really good shape. I read an earlier review that said the course could be better, so I was concerned. The grounds crew has done an outstanding job, considering all the rain we have had in the past 3 months. The greens are a little slow, and the are running true, so it may not be a private course, but it is in as good a shape as any course I can play on.

Nice Track

I had an opportunity to play this course on Saturday. The conditions were very good. There are a few tricky tee shots, and they can be a bit deceiving. Playing forward of your "normal" tee ground is probably a good idea, so you can get a good feel for the course. I really enjoyed the round.

Typical Arthur Hills

The course is in very good condition, and is typical of the designer's layouts...you miss the fairway by 15 yards, or try to hit it where you are not certain of what is on the other side...you are going to be sad. Not to say it is tricky, just make sure you study they score card and try to determine the best strategy for that hole. The greens are in decent shape, getting ready for over seed conditions, so they are going to be slow more than likely in the near future.

Should Play

If you are in the Ocala area, this course should be on your short list to play. If the weather would have been more cooperative, the round would have been just a bit better than it was. The course is a great design, plenty of room to drive and challenging 2nd shots make this a very nice round. The grasses were in transition, but the greens were rolling well.

Classic Ross

The course was in very good shape, they are over seeding, but the greens are only marginally affected. The remainder of the course was in very good condition, and enjoyable.

Very Nice Course

This course is very nice, and in very good condition. There were a few minor flaws in the greens, and it would only affect you, if you had to play through that area. Conditions overall were very good.

Very Nice Shape

The course was in very good condition. There were still some small hole from areation on the greens, but they did not seem to effect the putts. The course is a bit damp, due to all the rain, but the course is being well maintained by the staff.

18 Temporary Greens

I payed to play 18, but only hung in there for 9. They honestly have much work to do on the course, and probably should either close all together until the renovations are completed, or put up an extreme warning about conditions. I have never played a course where they put in 18 temporary greens...and there were other condition issues on the remainder of the course, that just made it unpleasant. Sorry staff, I know the comments are bad, but you have the power to make it better.

Public Golf = Gold

This course was a very good public facility. I have rarely played a public course in this kind of shape, even the outermost areas were in great shape. The greens putted very well and rolled out.

Needs Time

The course itself is in rough shape, The greens and tee boxes are in pretty good condition, and playable for sure. The remainder of the course is rough to say the least. You will be best served playing here with lift clean and place through the green. The bunkers are very playable as well.

Old style course

The course is an excellent test of skill for all levels of player. The greens are quick, and some have lost their bermuda which can be tricky, but overall the course is a good test.

Wide open, a few challenging holes.

The course is good for a quick outing, or to practice hitting shots. There are a few holes that require attention to detail, but for the most part, you can grip it and rip it.
