Value for money

We played the Royal 9 then the Indian 9. Have to say if the course was is as good of shape as the Royal 9 this would be a more positive report. The course is tight with narrow fairways and houses that I feel are too close to the action. That said the Royal 9 fairways and green were in great shape. The Indian 9 was somewhat less green and the greens had several dried out edges and less than perfect grass. I’ve played worse tracks and for more money, so this gets C- rating in my books.

Unassuming and fantastic

For a top notch course I would expected a grand entrance and clubhouse, with that not being a thing case, the course was spectacular. I really like the contrast of the green lush fairways and greens vs the winter grass. The staff were amazing and very helpful, I will definitely play here again.

Desert Golf

Chilly morning and we had a frost delay. The staff told us all about it and we ended up teeing off about 30 minutes after our booking slot. Course was green and lush. Fairways were in very good condition and greens were as well. Little slow on front nine and picked up some speed as they got more sun in the later morning.

Night golf!

Course is in good shape for December. Green are good, as I are the fairways. Tee boxes need to be loved a little more.

Fun course

Fun and challenging. Tight layout and if you don’t have control of your shots then some houses are in play. Fairways and greens are in very good condition, greens are a little slower than I was expecting, but rolled well

Sunday morning 18

Overall the course (fairways) were in pretty good condition. (We played the North/South course.) west course is still going through reseeding and will be closed for at least another week or so I was told. The holes that cut through the wash area are slowly being brought back after the tropical storm a month ago. Most of the greens had some edge damage and hopefully they can be fixed soon for high season. I don’t feel that the prices should go up until the greens are fixed properly.

Just before over seeding

The wife and I played on Oct 8 and the course was in very good condition for the time of year. Would definitely play there again and we might scoop up the couples deal that they have on the course for green fees.

First time for the South Course

Overall for this time of year with the desert heat starting to hit the course is still good shape. The greens all roll well and fairways are burnt out yet. And for $64 it is a very good deal.

Fairways and tee boxes were great, greens however need some love. Found that the grass was very thin in many areas. Cart girl was cash only which does suck. I would definitely play there again and bring cash as well.

Good course overall.

Really enjoyed the course some very challenging holes with lots of room around the fairways in case you make an error. Lots of water to challenge your play making as well.

First time here

Course overall is in good shape. They swapped the front and back nine, so for those of us with smart watches please take note. Greens are in good shape and fairways play very good as well.

Overall the course was very good. Conditions were wet so more drainage would be good. They should add another snack shack at the turn as well another washroom facility. Plays tougher than one would think. Some very challenging water hazards.

Solid 3.5/5

The course was nice and the end to end layout of the fairways was a good change. The green were in average shape and lots of bumps. The tee boxes need some attention, as there was lots of crown and divot areas.

Course is in pretty good condition for fall golf. Greens are a bit slow, but with my pace on putting I found it just right.

Good shape

Fairways and greens are in great condition, tee boxes were above average but needs some love. Pace of play was not great, a five hour round is not what anyone wants. I would definitely play there again.

Nice course with lots water in play. Well very hole actually! Staff are great. It’s a bit of a drive to get there and I didn’t manage driving time very well so we could only ply the front 9 then back to Orlando to catch our flight. I will be back though!!

Nice course

Maybe it was the time of year or the fact it was extra chilly with the wind but the course was fairly quiet. The track itself was nice and payed out pretty well. Lots of challenges with water in play. Greens were in fair condition, maybe it was the time of year. I might not play this course again as there are so many options in the area, but for the price I couldn’t pass it up this time.
