The King and Prince Beach & Golf Resort
Played On 06/17/2019Great value, surprising private course exp. on public course
I was very pleasantly surprised by this course. I’m from the Midwest, and I am used to overpaying for golf courses when I vacation in the South - either paying $250 for an $85 course, or paying $85 for a goat ranch muni-level track. But this course delivers great value for under $100. Plenty challenging, lots of interesting holes, some of which are strikingly beautiful (3 and 11-15 esp.). The course was in very good condition as well - perfect fairways, consistent greens. The few complaints I saw about this course on this site were about insects, which made me nervous - but I didn’t see one horsefly and there were zero issues. We saw deer, rabbits, a couple gators and some beautiful birds. I hooked up with another single and we played in a little over 3 hours. I rarely visit the same course in a new area twice, but I liked this course so much for the money - and didn’t see anything else local that looked as appealing - that I’m playing it again tomorrow. I highly recommend this track.

Played On 03/27/2018Very good, challenging layout
I enjoyed this course. Way more interesting than your typical FLAT Florida golf course. Elevation changes, great mix of long and short holes, and nice variety overall. But be ready for a challenge, especially if (as the day I played) the wind is up. Some tight holes and a few peculiarly small greens, but that's what makes it interesting. Fast greens with a tad bit of crabgrass in a few limited spots, but otherwise in really great condition - perfect fairways. A little pricey even for a really strong course (a similar quality course in Cincinnati would cost $100 less), but I've found that typical of this market: public golf is just really expensive in this area.
