Community Course

The course is intrenched in the Temple Terrace neighborhoods. The cars drive right along the course and some holes can be very narrow. Keep the drives straight and long and there shouldn't be any problems.

New Ownership

This is my home course. New Ownership has taken over and you can see the early improvements right away. Some new staff, the Pro Shop is not as cluttered, and the food has improved. The course will take time, but glad to see it happening.

Soggy and Hot

The course was pretty soggy, but that's expected for the summer. I always struggle with this course and can't seem to improve my score. The front 9 is bunch together, where the back 9 is a little more open. Very hot, not a lot of shade. Try to play in the morning.

Beating the Rain

I had never golfed her before, so I wasn't sure what to expect. It exceeded my expectations. However, it was a very difficult course. Water on just about every hole. Had to rush because of summer time rains. I will play it again.

Hot Day to Golf!

The was was very hot, but clear, blue skies. Don't forget your sunscreen. The Abbey is a great small, beginner course. For the $15, its worth every penny. My wife took me for Father's Day and enjoyed every minute. A couple of the holes dog-leg pretty tight, so your tee shot is key (#6 and #8) otherwise, you're in the woods. I will return!

Golfing on the Beach

This was a nice course to play to kick off the Melbourne Beach vacation. I found the narrow fairways and water difficult. It was sunny and very windy after the afternoon rain storm. Not a bad price for a county course. Only down side was the greens had been worked on the previous week so they were a bit bumpy. If I'm in the area again, I'd give it another go!

Difficult Course @ Heritage Isles

This course gets me every time. I lost 13 balls in the woods and water. With water on most holes, it gets in my head. We had the course pretty much to ourselves for a mid-week tee time. The clubhouse is under some renovation, but the staff still managed to be friendly when ordering food and drinks.

Start of Summer

I played Meadow Oaks on Memorial Day and, boy was it hot out. Even with an early tee time, it was hot. I was disappointed to see that they got rid of their driving range because they elected to build new houses in its place. This must have been recent because they hadn't put up driving nets/cages yet (hopefully).

Overall, they course was better then last time I played. We also received a hot dog and drink coupon which I didn't expect. Good times!

Tale of Two Courses

The front 9 is hilly and wide open. The back 9 is narrow, wooded, and tight. I was driving the ball great, but my short game was killing me. I like the elevated greens and the design of the course on the front. Good course to try if you are in the Brooksville area.

Sunday at the Yards

Beautiful day to play golf. The greens were very fast today. When putting, the ball would rocket off the green if you didn't tap it just right. We were pretty much the last ones on the course with late afternoon tee time, so we didn't feel rushed.

Spring Break Golf!

Perfect day to play golf -- beautiful weather. The greens were a bit over sanded which really slowed your putting down. The course has great layout and is balanced with water hazards / sand traps. The fairways were green and smooth. Played decent golf for a Tuesday!

Misinformed Course Ranger

I have played this a course a lot and typically I have no problems there with the staff. But today, the Course Ranger was out of line. He tells me to hurry up because we slowing play. No one was even near us, waiting on us, or trying to get around. Then tells me since, I grabbed a hot dog, that I need to skip a hole! NO WAY! Not once were we delaying play. I believe he got our foursome mixed up with another and was ill-advised with his information.

I hope this was an isolated incident because I do enjoy playing here. It was a beautiful day to play golf, and no course ranger was going to ruin that for me.

Finally Played the Back 9

I have attempted a couple times to play the whole course at Lake Bernadette but was unable to due to darkness and rain. Today was the day! I really like the back 9 more then the front 9. Wide open, but with some challenging water on certain holes. I couldn't ask for better weather! Call ahead for food at #9, otherwise that will delay you at the turn.

Windy Day at Diamond Hill

This was the first time I played here. I had read the course was in "decent" shape, but had been improved the last 6 months to a year. The fairways were in rough condition and some of the greens (#11 especially) were over sanded/bumpy. The layout and design was nice. The elevated greens were difficult to hit just right. I was told that this course was in tip top shape some years ago, but a "work in progress now". I'm glad I tried it, but I'll try others around it next time.

Florida Winter = Great Golf

A great Sunday morning to play the Palmer course. Excellent condition all around. Made a couple pars through the day. More water than what I expected on this course. Make sure you bring an extra sleeve of balls incase your go for a splash. I will play it again!

Great New Year's Golf at Silverado

Picked a overcast, cool, and somewhat rainy day to start my golf year in 2016. I gambled vs the weather for this tee time. It was not busy and you could really take your time and not feel rushed. The greens were in great shape and the fairways were nicely mowed. The clubhouse staff was great and the hot dog at the turn hit the spot. I will return!

Finishing the Year at Sherman Hills

I've been wanting to try this course out for sometime now. I finally got a chance. The front 9-holes and the back 9-holes are like two completely different courses. The front is wide open with plenty hills and dips. The back is very tight, wooded, and water. The overall course was in great condition and I will gladly return!

Playing the Yard on Christmas Eve

It was very muggy and overcast, not your typical Christmas Eve. The course was in good condition. The cart paths were a bit more bumpy then usual, so hang on. The greens were very fast and nicely trimmed. Enjoyed the hot dog lunch after 18.

Pre-Turkey Day Golf

Beautiful day to be on the golf course -- very crowded. I played 9-holes with family and friends. The guy in the Pro Shop was a bit rough around the edges, but I wasn't going to let him ruin a good day to play.

Hot in November

Great day for golf even though it was in the upper 80s. The course was in better shape since last time I played. The greens were the best I've seen in a while. Although, there were a lot of ant piles throughout the course. If you don't have the hot dog lunch included in your green fees, it was a bit pricey. Overall good time!
