The pace of play was severely compromised by walkers on the course. The distance between some of the holes is very long, one hole in particular on the Escarpment course, is probably a 1/2 kilometer. On that hole, we had 2 groups in carts behind the walkers just inching along until they reached the next tee box. As a result, the round was a very disappointing 5 hours long. This is a nice course but I would not recommend it until they address the pace of play issue.

Nice, older course with lots of mature Florida vegetation. Greens were in good condition but needed a haircut badly. They were very slow. Matched the pace of play which was also very slow. No course marshalls to monitor and manage slow play. The course is undergoing some major renovations but they are mostly still a work in progress.

This course has perennially been one of the nicest courses in the area. Unfortunately, when we played today the greens were in terrible condition. It appears that they have been infected with some kind of fast-moving blight type of disease. One of the golfers we played with had played the course the week before and he said that there were only a few patches on some holes. Today there were large swaths of diseased greens on most of the holes. I would normally highly recommend this course to friends but at present, I would be reluctant to do so due to the disappointing condition of the greens.

Starter allowed other groups to be inserted in between pre-booked tee times. This slowed the pace of play by putting out 3 groups of 4 in a 7 minute time slot. In addition, Marshalls did not monitor or enforce pace of play out on the course. Another frustrating and slow round of golf at Fairwinds!!!

Pace of play not properly monitored and enforced by staff.

Played twice in one week. First round (weekday) slow ... no Marshall's anywhere to be found. Made the turn and new groups on the 10th going off in front of us to make it more slow. Second time (weekend) our round was close to 6 hours - over a half hour late teeing off - no Marshall's to be found again. Very slow pace of play and no monitoring - or are you booking too tightly??

Second time playing this year - and again the pace of play was extremely frustrating and excruciatingly slow.

We had to wait 30 minutes for carts to come in before we could play. Despite that gap, we were backed up by the 2nd hole. Pace of play was extremely slow. We were over 5 hours and skipped 4 holes!

Course allows groups of 5 to play which significantly slows down the pace of play.
