Really Mice Layout

This is a great course to play. It is wide open which make it seems bigger. With 4-5 sets of tee boxes you can choose your length As the tree's grow and more homes get added this course is only going to get better. I am sure that in a few years it will be one of the best in the area.

Nice Track

This is a great value currently since the Front 9 is closed for reconditioning. The variety of tee boxes adds a nice challenge to the course. The whites are playing a little shorter than most courses but that was fine. Great pace for a Sunday late morning. We finished in 3 hours.
I would play Shell Point at any time. The staff could not be any nicer.

This is a great course to play and easy to get to.
The staff is always friendly and helpful.
The only knock on the day was the recent air rating of the greens made putting far more of a challenge than normal

Really nice course

This is a really nice course and in great condition which is surprising given the lack of rain here in SWFL.
The new club house is impressive but lacks food or drink service for golfers. Hopefully this will change in the very near future. The building appears to be able to house a good bar / restaurant.
I would not hesitate to play there again

Great Value, Great Course

Other golf courses should send their staff here for a lesson in how to treat your guests. Everyone there was terrific. The course is laid out nice and is in great shape. I look forward to going back there again to play another round. Bunkers had nice soft sand which is easier to play out of. One of the best GolfNow deals out there.

Nice course

The course loked very nice in reviews and pictures and it did not disappoint. There is a lot of water on this course as it winds through the homes. Very good layout. There are some nice wide open fairways but you do need good shot placement. The greens were in very good condition and are very large but some tough pin placements on Saturday

Great Time

Before playing I read the reviews of this course. Based on that I almost played some place else. These bad reviews are way off base. This course plays well, has a great layout and is in much better condition than I was led to believe. The greens rolled nice, fairways in great condition and it is a fun layout. Yes there are a couple of browned out spots on the greens and no ball washers on the course but overall I look forward to going back there again. Another nice amenity is a book they give you with excellent descriptions of each hole. This is a real advantage when it is your first time playing

Great Local Course

I stopped at this course last year went I was visiting but they did not have a set of lefty clubs for me to rent. They did try hard to find a few lefty clubs in the cart shed but no luck. It was that act of kindness that I appreciated and now that I just moved here it was the first place for me to go to. Considering that it has been hotter than usual in SWFL I thought the couse was in great shape. The grounds crew does a really good job in keeping the place up. The staff could not have been any nicer and I look forward to playing there again.

old orchard is old

THe people working at the course are very nice. Wewere able to get out ahead of our tee time which is good. The pictures on the web site are a bit old and the course does need a bit of work. We played on a Golf Now deal but even at the discount I thought it was a bit high for that course.
Over all I do not think I will be rushing back there for another round

Hi JStiuso,

We are happy to hear that you had a good customer service experience. All photos have been taken within the last year, however, course conditions are always changing. We hope to have another chance at exceeding your expectations.

Fall Golf

Those that have played golf in the fall as the leaves are coming down know the challenges of the season. The course was in very good shape considering the time of year. This is not a course for beginners. There a lot of elevation changes and difficult fairway lies. The greens were in terrific condition and were not giving away any easy putt's. Pace of play was a little slow which was frustrating on a day when the sun did not come out and it get's dark early.
This is a very scenic course and I am sure during the Spring & Summer months a gorgeous place to play.

Harker's Hallow Fall Golf

This course is owned by the same people as Apple Mountain. For me to get there is a bot over an hour away the same as Apple Mountain. The difference both are hilly course's but Apple Mountain is in better condition. The staff was very friendly and gave us honest information on the conditions. The greens were in great shape but some of the tee boxes needed a lot of work. From what we were told the are doing improvements to the place some I hope one day it will be back to it's formed glory

1st visit

This was my first time playing Cream Ridge and I can't wait to go back. We had no trouble with my Golf Now reservation. Check in was fast and easy. We got there early for our tee time and was able to get right out.
The pace was great for 13 holes but due to a rude foursome they backed up the final 5 holes looking for a lost club.
The course was in fine shape considering the lack of rain. It appeared the greens were airated recently but even though they were a bit tough it did not seem to be unfair.
The staff at the clubhouse and bar were great and as I stated I am looking forward to my next trip there

Wonderful course

This was my 1st visit to Spooky Brook and can not wait to go back. The staff was exccellent which is not always the case when booking thru Golf Now. For a county course the conditions were terrific.The greens were in very good condition and played fair.The combination of a freindly staff and good pace made it one of my best rounds of the year.

Ok place

It was my 1st time there and I loved the condition of the Greens and Fairways. The down side was the front 9 is a bit tight and for a few holes felt like a shooting gallery. The back nine was a bit more open.
I may or may not play there again since without a really good special it is a pricey place. I think if I paid full price I would have been disappointed.
I only am able to get out a couple of times a month so I look for new places and good deals
