Hidden Gem

Located in Lakeland (which is half way between me and my friends in Orlando) we have discovered a course worth the drive. Nice wide fairways surrounded by homes is this fun course. Not too demanding but still with challenges we really enjoyed it and will come back again

Soggy

There had been a lot of rain the past few days so it was cart path only. Additionally the fairways wee very wet with the ba;ll pugging. Our shoes were soaked by the third hole

Want More!!

This course was in the best shape ever. Lush fairways, great greens and good tee off areas. Always liked the layout. Not easy but good shots are rewarded. If it is wasn’t for the heat might have played 9 more

Pleasant Surprise

I’m new to the area. Found this course on line and decided to try it. I made a good choice. In good condition, nicely laid out and reasonably priced. I certainly will come back!

Always Great!

I have played this course many times and always enjoyed it. The course is in excellent condition from tee to green. It has its challenges but nothing too difficult for us Seniors. I would recommend it highly

NOT LIKE IT USED TO BE!

I have played this course many times over the past 10 years and have watched it deteriorate. The greens are very bad condition, the fairways are hard and the grass is spotty.

Always enjoy the course but it took us close to 5 hours on a Thursday morning! I would expect that on a weekend.

Soooo Slooow!!

Golfers want to play at a pace that is reasonable. Having to wait at least 10 minutes at EVERY hole is unacceptable. Either space out the tee times better or reduce the number playing each day. An otherwise good course in great condition was ruined by the pace. On a Thursday this shouldn't happen

As good as ever!

I have played this course numerous times and have always found it in wonderful condition with a good but not too demanding a layout. Wide fairways make for errant drives to still be playable.

Maintenance Issues

Haven't played the course in a while and was sad to see that it has deteriorated. I realize that all courses are facing financial difficulties but it shows more than other on this course. Still was fun, but with other options available it will be low on my return list

Water water everywhere!

A beautiful course in excellent condition. The biggest challenge is avoiding water which is present on most holes. The 18th is a nasty par 3 island green. All members of our foursome donated a ball to the water gods.

Down grade

This course has slowly lost it’s luster. Clearly it can no longer afford to maintain it. Fairways are spotty and greens are like billiard tables. Not like it used to be

Disappointing

Once a nice course it has deteriorated greatly. Many fairways have little or no grass. The sand in the traps is hard and the greens are in poor shape. Someone needs to spend some money to get this course back in shape or it will be eventually be unplayable,
