Lisbon Golf

A little disappointed at the facilities here No driving range. Putting green was half closed due to ground under repair. And no chipping? Course was interesting, in ok shape. A few greens diseased. 2and 4 Tee boxes and fairways were in great shape. Pace of play was great!! Members I came in contact with weren’t very friendly. Maybe a language thing. Overall was just ok.

Second try

This was my 2nd time here. I’d been here years ago and wasn’t pleased with course conditions. On this trip I thought I’d give it another try. Conditions were a bit better but overall it was disappointing. Otter side is a rather mundane 9 holes but standing water in traps made them unplayable. Muddy fairways and beat up tee boxes. Greens were ok. The fox side has some really neat holes. Not as much mud but bunkers still unplayable. I’ve done it twice so I’m all set. On positive note staff is very friendly

Neat course

Whispering pines is a good course to get your trip going. Conditions good, greens good. Not many interesting holes but it was a great day to play so it made it fun. The staff is amazing. Bill in the bag drop area is a great representative of the course. Friendly, helpful and fun to talk to. Enjoyed overall experience

Great Florida golf

This course was a great experience. Staff was friendly and helpful, carts clean and ready to go. Course is spectacular. Get a birdie on 1 because it’s an easy way to start the round. Green on 14 is a roller coaster. Course is in 5 star shape. Don’t miss this gem.

Disappointed

I can’t give a full review of the course due to picking up ball on 8. After a few days of rain this course should have been closed. Bunkers under water , could not find a dry spot in the fairway. I’d like to try it again when dry because layout was neat

Wow!!

Spectacular mountain course with some really great holes. #8, 9 , 16 and 17 are memorable holes. Greens are flawless, couple bare spots in the fairways but can be expected with hot sun and drought conditions. Jim the ranger is a super cool guy. Stopped to talk and greet me. He’s an asset to this club. Can’t wait to get back
