Misty Creek

Had a great round of golf. Interesting, challenging course which was in quite good condition when you consider heavy seasonal play in Florida,
Friendly staff, nice pace of play and pleasant surroundings.
Greens were very nice and rolled well. Fairways in good shape.
Only minor comment is that tee boxes were a little beat up, but again we are at the end of a really busy golf season.
Would recommend to players of all abilities, but definately is a strategic course. We'll be back soon.

Groves at The Meadows

The Groves is an executive course I have played many times as being a former member of the Meadows Country Club.
The course like many this time of year in Florida was over played and showed the wear and tear with greens that were in ill repair and extremely slow.
What I didn't expect was the fact that although they indicate 7 minutes between tee times, they were clearly jamming as many golfers as they could on to the course. Thererfore, play was extremely slow. It took us 2 hours and 45 minutes to play the first nine holes. When we reached the 10th hole, there were three groups in front of us waiting to tee off. At that juncture our frustration reached a point where we decided to leave.
We did complain to the person in the Pro Shop who did apologize but offered only excuses for the slow play when in fact the issue was simply too many players with too little gap between tee times on a short course.
I will never play any of the Meadow courses again and certainly cannot recommend this course to anyone else based upon course conditions and pace of play,
