first the greens had been coming back nicely but now crabgrass is come up making some greens unputtable #10 as example
problem with booking
if you book by clicking on a hot deal at the top of the tee time listing NO warning comes up stating this was a $20 walking rate me and 1 other in the group book this way. If you book by going down the list and click on the 1pm tee time you must select which rate you want and it does say $20 walking rate.
After complaining the the guy behind the counter and the owner would not give us a cart even though we were not warned by GN. He said a cart would be $23 dollars each, the most expensive cart fee I have ever encountered. Carts aren't ever gold plated for that fee. Could of offered us a cart at a discount but no.
At one point a few months ago I inquired about membership guess what that will not happen ever!
GN fix your web site

Found an old score card from 2003 for VH how funny this is. On the front of the score cards it reads-“A top ten you can play in the U.S.”-home course of Stetson University. Registered Audubon Sanctuary.
In 20 years it went from premier to barely playable What happened to the birds?

greens were good 7 out of ten
fairway about the same
sand traps ?
tee boxes 6-1/2

hope this is not just a short term fix to get members

played here last min. live 2 miles from course.
the starter (great work) was able to get me out on #10 because there was a group of 5 or 6 foursomes going out before me, played in under 3 hours not 6.
the greens on the back side were green but slow the front was a mess. some kind of de thatching that made them un puttable .

Went out behind 5 groups 20 players who were suppose to be playing a scramble, they weren’t more like $500 a stoke. Thankfully they only played 9.
Greens were green but slow maybe a 6 or 7
Practice green was more like a 10 - 11
Must have lift 10 putts 6” short.

greens 1.2.7.12 need work
TBs on some holes need work ie. back tee 1, 13
most ruf. GUR

greens 7 out of 10 a few weeds and bare spots a little slow
fairways -6-1/2 " "
ruff -2 plays as GUR
sand -7
tee boxes- 6 -mow the rear tee bowes and move the markers back

greens are much improved with a few exceptions (11),
speeds could be a little faster. some seem like their at 8 others at 10
fairways are ok 6.5 maybe. sand traps are good but there are no rakes.
there is no ruff just bare ground. they must be considered GUR.
still cant believe the senior tour played here back in the 1980's

It would have been nice to have played course before the cold snap . all the fairways were brown and the greens were all guess work, some were fast and some were very slow.
some parts of the fairway were covered with divots, golfer need to step up and fill their craters.

Had to play front 9 twice bridges were bring repaired on back 9.
F9 has a nice layout w fairly open fairways and well protected greens. The greens were green but were slow and needed to be cut and rolled.
I play a lot at near by New Smyrna golf club which has perfect greens that run about 11 and are smooth.

Greens were green but they were sooooo slooooow hard to putt. want great greens play New Smyrna!
4 weeks ago my wife and I go stuck on #14 because our cart went dead- this time our cart went dead going uphill on #4 just made it back to the club house going down hill 15 min change over- new cart made it from hole 6 to the middle of #13 - waited 20 min for cart.
No comps not even for a bag of range balls.

The greens are the best better than any other course-period

Tees are very good most sand trap have new sand
some spots in the fairways need some tlc

DR is closed waiting on netting

Can’t play holes 4 5,6,7 bridges washed out but u get to play 1,2,3,8,9 twice and the back 9

it finally happened, the golf gods were over thrown by the $$$$$$. Once only a hand full of houses were able to be seen on hole # 2, now the land near #1, 3, 4, 5, 8, and 9 is being cleared to put up homes and there are survey markers near #16. Just a shame.
Soon it will turn into Victoria hills, once a top 100 now I wont play whats left a beautiful layout.

The greens are still bumpy from aeration.

Why can’t there be a golf course welfare agency like there is for kids. This course needs to be put in protective custody and taken away from the owners. 14 years ago this course was great.
You couldn’t get a tee time now they should be paying me you us to play this course. If you could find a 5’ dia. Piece of good green to putt on you were lucky, the once beautiful lakes are over grown. What is that stuff in the sand trap volcanic ash?
Give it me maybe I can fit it

Played LPGA 2 days before greens were fast 10-11 and smooth, at PH all my putts were slow some came up 6' short at best they were running at a 6. putts rolled like they were running a ski slope left then right ETC
cant play here it screws up my putting everywhere else.

greens were in great shape, the fairways were dry hard and lacking grass as were some of the tee boxes.
the sand for the most part was in good shape but some were very wet-need to re aim the sprinklers.
fix the rear tee box on 15, 1,7,&8.

1:15 tee time arrived 11:45 no carts ready no cart to drive u to the range 200 yards Walked back from range 1:10 still no carts. 1:15 got cart drove to tee got started. Nobody fixing ball marks repaired 2-3 a hole. Should let me play for free. 5 hour round
Better than 5 hr 15 min last week. Had a 5 some 2 groups in front of us. And a 6 some 2 holes behind us
