Nice comeback course.

Over the last three years this club has continued a slow improvement process that is making it move up the scale in courses to return to every year. They don't boast about the improvements they just keep doing more each season. The volunteers staff are all golfers and the local team are always friendly so it is an inviting experience every time.

Bad attitude at front desk to Golf Now users

I use Golf now to book our tee times and it seems this course does not respect that as much as booking directly with them. The treatment on arrival was insulting to me as i was told our twosome could not tee off until the other two the course had paired us with arrived as if it was our fault they weren't there yet. The course was empty at the first tee time of the day yet he made a point of telling me we would not be allowed to start play until the other golf now group arrived. Many other courses to choose in this area that seem to want the business.

Had the same experience with pro shop. Expect better treatment and get it at other area courses.

Nothing slows a golf course more than twosomes mixed in between foursomes. It is our policy no matter how you book to send out foursomes as much as possible to help all golfers play at a good pace. Providence always tries to do what is best for all our guests at all times.

What a treat.

What a treat to play a course that is so well maintained and playable even during the fall maintenance. The guys were busy plugging the greens and yet they still rolled OK. Come play this layout, you will never regret it.

This is a great little course that always plays well. The Laver's have done a wonderful job making and keeping this course fun to be at. The staff are always country friendly and the couse is well maintained.

Over priced for what you get.

I can not believe the condition of the fairways and greens, poor for both. I have played $40 courses near here that are better condition.
Shame to see as I always found this track a step above but no longer.

Best course in Clermont for under $30.

Wow what a change in one year. The course is getting better each time I play it and now on weekends for $30 you get golf/cart and an 8oz steak for lunch with a drink of your choice. John the new manager is working his butt off to serve a good product to golfers and his volunteer staffing is awesome. I have made 4 new friends amung them and hope to see them and play a round with them again next winter.
Many Thanks,

Good layout.

Pleasantly surprised. Course was in great condition and we played in 3.5 hours. No water on this track but there is a bit of sand like maybe 150 bunkers. 4 some today and not one lost ball amoung us, wide open holes.

One of my all time favourite courses to play.

From our greeting in the clubhouse to lunch after the round what more could we ask. The course was nearly full of golfers, mostly in 3somes and yet we finished in just over 3 hours.
The owner even stopped and checked on us around the 12th hole. We also spoke to 3 on course staff as they let us play through their work area.
Lunch was well prepared and served with a smile and although I had to buy lunch for both of us it was awesome.
Many thanks,
Jim and Larry

What a treat to be treated this well.

I booked a round here using Hot deal for two of us. Showed up 30 minutes early and the staff could not find my name on the sheet. I had the date wrong by a full week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Instead of turning us away on a very busy day, the chap in the clubhouse said if you can get out there quickly we can let you go now and I will worry about the paper work later. Oh my, what a great way to be treated and what a great course to discover. I will be back many times over the next few years.

THE GREENS SHOULD BE CLOSED UNTIL REPAIRS ARE DONE!

Here is a course that had everything and blew it. From tee to green in Jan. 2015 it was inexcellent shape. Each week the condition of the greens got worse until they are a joke to play on now. Spray painting sand and then wetting it down does not make for a pleasent day on what should be greens. I have played many other cheaper courses that have excellent greens so why pay to put on sand? Then throw in the instruction that you must drive a 90 degree rule is a complete joke. I played Orange County National and we could scatter drive on the fairways. The same hold true for Windemere, Stoney Brooke West, West Orange CC, Kingsridge, Legends of Orlando. I also brought an out of country guest and paid $35 for club rentals that should have been re gripped 2 seasons ago. I have played here for 6 years now and WILL NEVER GO THERE AGAIN. They do not care.

1st time at OCN Panther lake

Wow, Been wishing to play here for 2 years and did not disappoint. Everything from start to finish was as expected, 1st class all the way. The pro shop staff even looked for some specific clothing items I was looking for while we played our round and remembered me when we came in.

Best bang for your dollar in Florida!

I could play this every day and never get bored, then eat at the restaurant and start over. One of my favorite places ever.

This is a very nice layout. A couple of the swamp holes were very wet but with the recent rain this was no big surprise. Staff is very friendly and you feel welcomed.

One more good find in C Florida

Nice layout with some extremely tough holes for the high to mid handicapper. Met some very nice people here from up north who praised the locals and staff.
I will return to play this track when we return.
