The greens on the course are much improved. The putting green is better but still needs work.. The chipping green is rough! Traps are being improved but are not in good shape. There is a lot if maintenance activity going on on the course. GPS didn’t register accurate yardages on Holes 10 & 11. The course putts better than other public courses in the area. Pro Shop attendant needs ti be friendlier. They are trying!

The course was in very good condition! The greens were excellent, very fast but readable and much enjoyed. Definitely a links course with 3 nines. Will be back next trip to this area!!!

I believe the course was design as a teaching course. It requires a lot of different shots during the round. Well maintained. Excellent greens. Nice tees. One of the best nine hole courses I’ve played!

While visiting Myrtle Beach, I randomly selected this course. It was close to my lodging and the fees were reasonable. I was greeted upon my arrival in a very friendly manner by a young man at the bag drop. I asked about a range and he gave me directions immediately. I had made a reservation and the man at the Pro Shop desk quickly checked me in and provided additional info about going to the appropriate first tee. There had been recent rains and there were several wet areas. I was not in a foursome. However, there was a foursome about three groups ahead of us that really slowed play down. We could have used a ranger to speed them up. The lady in the snack bar was was friendly and encouraged me to return during my stay. I’m going to do that! I play 10-12 rounds of golf where I live. This was the friendliest, helpful and mist enjoyable course I’ve visited in several years! Greens were in excellent condition. All of the above provided me with a great golf day in Myrtle Beach!!!

It was a beautiful day full of sunshine and enjoyment on 7/30/2020. Greeted by a businesslike, friendly gentleman at the Pro Shop and received a friendly "hello" from a man at the Cart Barn. The putting green was in excellent condition as were all of the greens on the course. The fairways and tees were in very good shape and the traps were well kept. I had a really good front 9 and failed to do as well on the back 9. I do not live nearby and was in Branson for a pleasure and fun visit. I have played at this course for close to 20 years now as we visit at least every other year. There are some absolutely beautiful golf courses in and around Branson, but I like Pointe Royale the best because it isn't too hard but it certainly isn't easy, it's not too steep for senior players back and forth to the greens and tees, it has an excellent bar and grill with an affordable and tasty menu and I always look forward to returning for yet another round. I recommend you give it a try because I think you'll agree with me! Fore!!!!!!

Greens and tees are in excellent condition. Work has been done on traps.

This links layout is improving daily with the care and maintenance it is currently receiving. The greens are in outstanding condition and the fairways are very nice. Bunkers are improving. A challenging round of golf!

This isn't Pebble Beach but for the average golfer it is a very nice play to enjoy a round. The course isn't extremely difficult but it isn't a "gimme" either. The staff is friendly. Nearly new carts with nice amenities. The putting green and the on course greens were in excellent shape and would hold good shots into them. These aren't super fast greens but they roll really well! Fairways and tees were in very good shape. I'll be back to play again!!!

I play here 4-6 times a month. I really enjoy my rounds with friends and find the challenge adequate. I'm 70+ years old and the senior tees are well suited for golfers my age. The Pro Shop staff is very friendly and Ben is courteous and helpful at all times. I find the greens consistent and very well kept! They also hold when you hit a good shot that should hold. I think you'll enjoy your round and return for more!

This golf course actually closed in late 2015. It was taken over in February 2016 by a man who is in the business of renovating golf courses that are going in the wrong direction. It was in a horrible condition. He has done an incredible job of turning the course around and beginning to bring it back to prominence. All but one green and the putting green are in remarkable condition. He has overseeded the tees, fairways and greens with winter rye and even the Bermuda is on the rebound. By mid-summer this course will be approaching a 5 star rating. The Pro Shop personnel are as friendly as you'll find anywhere. Divots Cafe has opened in the dining area and features breakfast, lunch and dinner. It's quite good! A new Superintendent and his staff are quickly making this the best public golf course in the Gainesville area. It's an extremely challenging layout and fits the low handicapper to high handicapper needs for a fun round of golf. I love playing this course!

A friendly gentleman at the desk in the Pro Shop! Helpful, informative and advised us (we had a foursome) that they did not have a driving range but had a net near the putting green where we could loosen up before our round. It was a perfect way to get our bones ready for the round. Well kept putting green and the course is also well maintained. A challenging course but not to the degree of some other courses in the area, thank God! Our only concern was a twosome (I don't understand why they don't put twosomes together) behind us who told the ranger we were holding them up. We were following another twosome who was behind a couple of foursomes. We had no problem with that because we understood there was no place to go. However, the ranger suggested that we go back to #1 and play the front nine again as we approached #10. We told him we wanted to play the course as it was designed to be played. From that point forward, he seemed to resent the fact we didn't do as he suggested and watched us closely from various viewing points till we finished. I have done a lot of ranger work and also served as a starter. A person with this attitude can give your course a bad name if the conduct isn't corrected. I'm hoping this was an isolated incident and we do intend to return to the course.

This is on of those courses that simply said is "an outstanding golf experience"! Nearly perfect course conditions and extremely quick greens. A memorable experience for all four of us!
The older gentleman at the check in desk was very courteous and quickly, but in depth, went over the expectations of the staff regarding three holes that were cart path only and a couple of other reminders for us as we played the course. The only negative regarding our experience was the two cart guys. One was not very friendly and the other drove off with one of our carts with two bags of clubs on it while we were practice putting. I had to ask the check in person to summon him so we could begin play. A strange happening! It seemed the two cart guys weren't that familiar with the game of golf.
A great golf course!

Greens are quick and well maintained. Fairways and tees are in very good condition. Range available. Nice practice putting green.

This course gets very good care. As with some courses, you really don't feel like your playing the same hole more than once. A nice selection of doglegs, sand, water and challenging placement shots. The greens aren't crazy fast, but they are fast, smooth and in great condition. A good driving range, refreshments available at the turn in a convenient location and very clean and well kept facilities. The pro shop is staffed by extremely friendly, helpful individuals. They have demo clubs that provide you with an opportunity to try various brands to suit your needs. A well stocked pro shop is nice to see and use as something you don't find that much anymore in a public course. This course is very friendly towards senior players and offers a great senior rate on Mondays. Simply a fun and challenging round of golf! They also do a nice job of hosting events.

Friendly staff, small practice area near clubhouse, greens well cared for and running nice, traps in very good condition and the course was accurately marked regarding yardage and other pertinent info. The rough, especially on the back nine, was brutal. Your ball always sinks to the bottom of the grass. There is very little water on the course and what is there has a bad taste. The snack bar seemed to understand the problem and offered large styrofoam cups of water without charge. Two totally different nines. The front was links style and the back was chiseled from timberland. Although difficult, I really enjoyed playing and the beauty of the back nine.

The various tees allow for players of all skill levels. You will use most of the clubs in your bag.

An enjoyable place to play a round of golf in an excellent golf atmosphere.

We were treated extremely well by all personnel. The course was in very good condition. It was a windy day and that took something out of the overall enjoyment of the round. A nice change of pace from the ordinary.
