Ardea Country Club - South Course
Played On 12/09/2016Spectacular Course and Experience
There are two courses at East Lake Woodlands GCC, South and North. We didn't play the South but staff mentioned it was more wide open and generally easier to score there if that is your intention. My buddy and I were down there from Toronto Canada to play golf for a few days while the snow flew in Ontario. My friend is a good golfer (HC 8-10), I'm overtly average (HC 16-17). We were looking for course beauty, layout and overall experience, which is why we chose the North course (score be damned). The course was simply spectacular. I've played a lot of courses in FLA and this was one of the most beautiful and memorable. Virtually impossible to walk, with long drives between each hole, through gorgeous FLA swamp and woodlands.Greens were in great shape and fairways as well. Yes, there were narrow and it's best to hit it straight but I'd suggest you play it regardless of your HC, simply for the natural beauty (some stunning homes back there too - wow).
