With Rain Fairways Are Greening Up. Be Ready For Green Aeration and Sanding

Course (fairways) have responded well to some 9 inches of rain this week. Lakes are more full and course more pleasing to the eye. Fairways are still a little skimpy with grass due to previous drought conditions.

Greens have been aggressively aerated and top dressed with sand. Recommend you and your group two put max at this point and walk away. They need to do this at this time of year and it just isn't worth it to look for any type of true roll.

Course in much better shape than three weeks ago.

Hi ChipShotOne, Thank you for your additional feedback on your recent visit to Raptor Bay. With the rain and our scheduled maintenance, our course conditions have fully rebounded from the severe drought from this spring, and we recommend that everyone come out for a great round of golf this summer! Braxton's also has some great Summer Specials to finish off your round running all summer long!

Just OK

There is little to say that is positive about this course in its current condition. Fairway grass is burnt out or is dying, evident fairways have received little water. Greens are in pretty good shape.

There is nothing particularly exciting about this course. Just mundane holes that are not well thought out. It could be so much more but it isn't in its current condition

You would expect more from a joint partnership between the major hotel/resort and major developer it is associated with. It plays like a muni course, looks like one too!

Hi ChipShotOne, Thank you for your comments. Like most of the state, we have been in a severe drought in our county. Due to our restrictions on water usage, we haven't been able to properly water the course, but as soon as we begin to see daily rain our fairways will be back to being in great shape!

Not Worth It

Do not waste your money. Fairways were in state of distress and course itself is about as ho hum as possible. It's evident that Hyatt / WCI could care less about this tract. The only saving grace is the greens were in pretty good shape.

There is nothing interesting related to this tract. Just a bunch of overgrown Palmettos with crowned fairways and abysmal visuals on most holes.

Have played many "munis" that were ten steps up from this sorry excuse for a golf course.

Excellent Course. Connect With A Member To Play

Well maintained and a series of tees to play from which will challenge you based on your abilities. Fast greens, well maintained fairways and golf layout that is both a challenge and rewarding for strategic shots.
