Peaceful Mountain Golf

Our weather was quite wet but the course was still very playable. Fairways had plenty of grass. Rough was longer grass the way rough should be. The greens were very smooth and rolled quite well. Speedy down the slopes and slow when going uphill. The course is very pretty with plenty of hills,....nothing too extreme.....very green. The folks in the pro shop were very kind and friendly. We had a nice lunch. Nice variety on the menu. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Highly recommend to golfers of all abilities.

Had a great time with a family foursome...played two two balls to take the pressure off any individuals. Lots of grass on fairways.....greens were very nice. Early morning tee time avoided traffic. Golf as it was meant to be played.

Liquid Sunshine

Played with six friends on vacation from Florida. It was a rainy Momday but the course held up very well considering the amount of recent rain, Greens rolled nicely. Fairways had plenty of grass. Clubhouse staff was more than friendly. Lots of pretty mountain views.

Saturday in the Park

Played a three hour round of golf with two friends. Course was in good shape . A fair amount of grass in most fairways. Greens were nice...not too fast.......rolled very true for the most part. Everyone in our group made some decent length putts. Some tee boxes lacked some grass but using a tee negates that concern. An enjoyable day at Wekiva. All the workers were very kind.

Saturday Morning Special

Course was in great shape. Greens were beautiful....not overly fast but a nice safe pace. Fairways had plenty of grass...rough was somewhat groomed ....same for the sand traps. Some of the tee boxes were a little uneven and chopped up but very playable. The only negative was despite teeing off at 8 am in the morning it took almost five hours to finish the round. This is a problem for many golf courses.......pace of play has nothing to do with good or bad golfers. It is all about people caring about others.

First Day of Summer

Played many times at Deltona over the years.....today was extremely hot and waiting to play on every hole for 4 hours and 45 minutes made for a less than pleasant golfing experience. The greens had been punched a few weeks ago and still have a ways to go to be considered average..way too many holes and way too bumpy to really make any putts. Really like this course and look forward to a better time in the future

The Champion

Spent a Sunday afternoon playing this old favorite. Course was not busy. Fairways had more grass than 90% of the courses in Central Florida. Greens were very nice...not super fast as they can be although anything downhill can be scary.

Nice Course

Enjoyed a nice round on a Saturday in under four hours. Fairways had a minimal amount of thin lies. Course plays a little tight. Take less club when possible and keep the ball in play. The greens were fabulous. Not only were the greens lighting fast there were no signs of imperfections at all. Kudos to the course greens keeper! Final thought....those greens!!!!!

Black Friday Golf

What a nice golf course.....beautiful practice areas....course was in great condition.....greens have to be in the top 10% in the state of Florida.....only negative was the pace of play...five hours is even too long to play a round at Pebble Beach....not sure why it took so long....course ranger did come by on the front nine to check with groups....said it was a busy day......that is a disconnect....busy does not have to be slow or five hours...played another nice local course the next day on Saturday morning in 3 hours 45 minutes...all that said we will be back...the course is that nice! Check it out!

Pretty Course - Tough Rough

Enjoyed an early morning round while in the area on vacation. Very nice greens. Very punishing rough that often cuts into the middle of the fairways. Local knowledge would be helpful. Will play again next time in area.

On vacation and enjoyed the course very much. Nice greens. Good variety of holes. First group of day so pace was fast. Staff seemed to be focused on servicing regulars instead of guest. This did not prevent our group from having a good day. Will play again in the future.

The Bear usually wins

Course was not busy at all for a hot Saturday afternoon...foursome finished play in less than 4 hours...fairways had plenty of grass...greens were well manicured and quick..many hills in fairways...lots of slope on many greens....hit in the right spot and birdies are available....miss it in the wrong spot like one of the numerous bunkers and you can quickly put up a crooked number...super nice staff...look forward to next time

The Eagle was grounded today

Play today was unusually slow..almost five hours...too long to ever play golf.... greens were very nice as usual....fairways starting to lose grass in many areas.....fringe areas around the green are also very bare of grass....looking forward to playing again at a faster pace

CC Mt Dora

Fun course...excellent greens...tricky layout with many hidden obstacles.....out of bounds and water always near by.....some short par 4's and par 5's which offer good birdie chances but slightly errant shot can quickly produce double bogey....most holes are unique from each other...not a boring course for being in a home neighborhood.......speedy beautiful greens.....local knowledge very helpful

The Eagle is Flying Good

Enjoyed a nice round as a foursome on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Greens were really very nice.....a little speedy but rolling true. Three hours and forty five minutes even with a few stragglers ahead. Course is forgiving for hitters who occasionally spray off the tee. Course is in very good shape as we go into the hot season. Been playing here frequently for the last couple of years. Can't recall not enjoying the course. Greens are worthy of a $30-40 fee. Friendly staff! Check it out!
