This is an extremely enjoyable experience. The course is in excellent condition.... The pace of play is steady and allows you to play a shot without waiting. Would definitely play again...

A Course In Need

Davie golf is in need of tender loving care.....the greens seem to be closely cut grass on top of the most convenient places rather than properly constructed greens......and the greens can be characterized as "postage stamps." Additionally the fairways, although cut appropriately suffer greatly from a lack of grass. On the plus side the staff is wonderfully helpful but it isn't enough. The course is a disappointment.

A Marvelous surprise

Today my wife and I played Jacaranda West. Without question is is the best golf experience we have had in the Fort Lauderdale area....It is incredibly well maintained....tee boxes, fairways and greens are superb....and best of all the pace of play was such that there was no waiting to hit your next shot.....would we play it again? ABSOLUTELY!....Can't wait to play Jacaranda East....

Awesome! What a great review. We're so glad you enjoyed the West. We work hard to keep the courses in great condition and it's always nice to hear that from one of our guests. We hope the East treated you well!

A very pleasant surprise

Goes Although we had no previous knowledge of the course we selectect it and were absolutely blown away with the design, condition and wildlife that appears on almost every hole. The condition of the fairways and undulating greens is superb. The number of tee boxes allows golfers of all types to truly enjoy the course. Play it!!!!

NOT TO BE MISSED

THIS COURSE IS SO WELL LAID OUT AND MAINTAINED THAT YOU CAN'T WAIT TO HIT YOUR NEXT SHOT WHICH WILL BE FROM EXQUISITE FAIRWAYS. THE GREENS ARE UNDULATING, IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND QUICK. THE BABBLING BROOKS AND WATERFALLS MAKE YOU FEEL YOU ARE IN A PLACE THAT SOMEONE CARED A LOT ABOUT AND WANTED YOU TO ENJOY.

A course gone bad!!

This is a well designed course by Greg Norman but it has all gone bad because 18 greens are dead....NO GRASS...someone stupidly put on the wrong chemicals and the grass on all greens has died and there is no sign of it returning in the near future. The course should be shut down until the greens come back. Unfortunately you only find this out when you sign in and what are your options at that point. If the owners won't shut it down GOLFNOW should consider dropping it out of its options to play....

A Course For The Ages

While the pace of play left a lot to be desired the challenges presented by this course made you think carefully where you wanted to play your next shot from. You must hit it straight because otherwise it is virtually impossible to score well. The views especially on the back nine are awesome as you pitch your shot to a green surrounded by canyons...........it is a must play..

Simply the BEST

This is a course that you will remember and want to play again and again......visually it is absolutely beautiful and so well maintained that it puts other courses to shame......it is fair with wide fairways but errant drives will find water on many holes or fairway bunkers. The greens have subtle undulations and are fair with not excessive speed. The par threes tend to be short but once again an errant shot will put you in a position that it is difficult to chip close to the hole........by all means play this course!

A Gem !

I wasn't sure what to expect as Rancho Bernardo had a good reputation some years ago and then not so good....so we took a chance and were rewarded nicely for our choice. It is in excellent condition and well maintained with sincerely helpful staff. The greens were very quick but not unfair....many holes presented an excellent challenge with speciific reference to the par threes......if you have an opportunity to play it by all means do so........you will enjoy your round.....

Another Palmer beauty

This course makes you realize that playing a Palmer designed course is always a treat. If you can get off the tee reasonably well you should have a short iron on the par 4's and the par 5's are easily reached in regulation. Keep an eye on the GPS for wash areas that are not always visible from where you are standing but in a few instances cut through the fairways. You will want to play it again.

A Faldo Finest

There isn't a course better maintained and more beautiful in the desert than this one. It is very challenging with numerous bunkers on each hole in locations that demand well placed shots. The greens are quick and undulating making you do a lot of lining up of each putt. Play, look and enjoy!

This is truly an Arnold Palmer beauty. You will want to play it again. And the Big Horn sheep on the course and in the mountains is an added treat.

This is a golfer's course!

It is an exciting course with numerous doglegs and more bunkers than you probably have ever encountered. But if you are hitting the ball reasonably well you will truly enjoy this course. Walking away with a par on any hole makes you smile....

wind makes this a challenging course!

Be aware that the staff may change your tee time as they claim they can do it for up to ten minutes which doesn't seem bad except that at this time of year you may not be able to finish your round because of darkness.....
