Slow play

We were a little late getting out (2:00 with 1:48 tee time). This was disappointing but acceptable as itwas obvious the course was overbooked as the parking was filled and they were out of carts. We waited about 20 minutes fora cart.
The marshals acknowledged it was slow but basically just said ‘take your time). We literally waited on every shot and we were a 4some following a two. It was dark and there were 2 holes left to play. Disappointed in the value for money and lack of acknowledgment or any type of offer to encourage me to return. The staff were friendly but didn’t seem to be supported in any action so it was a feelin of ‘it is what it is!’ I understand that $65 is considered a discounted rate but I can play better courses for the same rate and not have the slow play. Definitely did not get my money’s worth on this booking!

Ms. Helen, I am sorry for your experience. We had some work being done on our fleet that disrupted our normal traffic flow. I'd love to have you out to experience a normal day at Myakka Pines. I will reach out to you by phone today.

Constant slow pace of play

We love the course and the staff are typically very friendly. Fairways and Greens are always in good condition. However; the pace of play is the slowest we experience. We would like to play this course more but we do not like sleep w play with no participation by the marshals to move people on. They do drive around the course but never acknowledge pace of play. Members ‘own’ the course.

Nice course - poor first impression

I did like the course. I played Creek/Oak and I would return. My first impression of the service would have had me walk away if I wasn't keen to golf that day. I entered the parking lot and from there I had to determine the process for carts/registration, etc. Another golfer gave us instructions. There was nobody at the cart reception so we proceeded to the pro shop. I was waiting in line behind a customer when an obviously late known golfer came through the door and registered immediately. I had not been acknowledged at this point. After I checked in and paid, I had to ask where the starter for Creek was because I hadn't played there before. The starter was friendly enough and told us to keep on time. I assumed this was an indication that the pace of play would be steady. We waited on every hole staring at 8 and finished our game in the dark with nobody available again to direct us. The price was right at $29.
