Wonderful Course Lay out

I flew out to the Denver area to play some golf with my son and an old friend. I selected "The Ridge" and was not disappointed. from the Tee Boxes to the greens the course conditions were in great conditions. I must say the greens were especially fast and in superb condition. I will return as this course serves up wonderful scenic views and challenges on every turn! Thanks, we will return to play again.

Don't waist your money

A couple of friends of mine went to play last week. wen we go to the bag drop and parked there was a young man in aa blue cart that watched us unload our clubs park our car then we loaded our clubs . He never moved from his blue cart. He never greeted us , never gave us a course update? We thought this to be odd since all courses will at least greet you and help with bags, not this course. We went in and payed 60 bucks , this time of the year there are summer rates but this course dose not have them. We went to the 1st hole to tee off away we went. we notices that the tee boxes were in terrible shape as well as the fair ways, big bare areas with nothing but dirt wand weeds. it looked like the sand hill cranes have been digging them although the front nine had a couple of cool doglegs and water shots there was fairways of weeds and the tee boxes were waist areas. when we got to the back nine it was twice as bad the tee boxed and fairways were trash, 11, 13, 14, 15 and 16 fairways were completely unplayable, I have seen Mississippi cow pastures in better playing conditions than the back nine of Harmony. The owners, managers and ground superintendent should be fired . They do not know what they are doing or just don't care. The results speak for themselves. I do not recommend this course and will not return.

Gone To the Birds

My friends and I wanted to play Saturday and although many golf courses this time of the year Harmony is still high. Anyway we went to the driving range and noticed it has not been watered in a long time and there was no sand and the club cleaning water bucket was empty of water? Any way we went out to play our round. the tee boxes were dry , no grass and full of weeds. Every fairway had sandhill cranes absolutely destroying the fairways? Many many bare spots and it isn't even August....On the 14th fairways we counted 23 Sandhill Cranes. The sad part is the golf course has not even tried to fix the damage or tried to spray the fairways down??this golf course use to be really nice to play, but is quickly going down hill. This is poor ownership/management.

Terrible Tee Boxes

Me and a couple of Friends went golfing Saturday . They drove up from Clearwater and after we checked I we started at the driving range and noticed there was no sand to Fill our divots. Then we wanted to putt while waiting, although the original putting green was OK the grass Surrounding the green was a mixture of weeds and dirt. When we got to the white tees on 1 we noticed it was in terrible shape there’s hardly any grass and it is filled with weeds. We kind of blew it off because we thought this was just the first team, however when we went and played the whole course every Teebox was in such terrible shape they are bare with mud sand and full of weeds it doesn’t look like they know how to plant grass on the tea boxes, some of the fairways had dead zones on them where the Sandhill Crane have destroyed several areas of the back nine notably 11, 13,14 and 15 fairways. This course needs help.

Slow, slow ,slow

The word was slow. I went to play on a Friday so I could avoid weekend crowds. The course was is great shape and the greens were in awesome condition. It took me and my friend 5 1/2 hours to play. It was very painful. We started at 9 am and finished at 230 pm. There was no ranger at all and when I approached the staff after the round to address this concern, they acted like that was the national average I I didn’t know what I was talking about. I won’t be back for a while.

Needs Work, but getting better..

I took the Sunday afternoon to walk the Melbourne municipal course. I haven't played there in a few weeks. The fairways were in decent shape but in need of aeration. The greens and tee boxes were in dire need of work and major TLC. With all the rain they have received they have grown in some but need professional maintenance. The city has no clue on golf course maintenance. With the volume of players you would think they could invest some back in the course . I will check back in a couple of months to see if progress has been made, Needs work but getting better

In Great Shape

I have been playing Baytree Golf Course for several years. It has been regarded as a "value" course meaning the conditions are below average and it is inexpensive to play. Well the new management has definitely turned that around! The course conditions are the best I have seen, the tee boxes were well kept and the greens were really beautiful and manicured. The fairways have just been punched and it looks like the owners are really working to produce a course worthy of returning time and time again.

Greens were terrible

My friends and I decided to play at Crane Creek because we have not played there in about a year. I noticed right off the main practice putting green was in Texas conditioning. It looked like someone poured acid al over it and you cannot properly putt on it. We went to the driving range and it needed work there was not even sand to repair our divots as a matter of fact the whole driving range was in need of majorly repair. When we tees off the fairways were decent but the condition of every green on every hole was in awful and non playable. I do not think we will return. The city of Melbourne should get out of the golf course business.

Fairways fast but weedy

My friend and I went to Harmony on Saturday morning the course was very friendly and helpful. We went out to the range to warm up and we noticed that the range has not been mowed in quite some time the grass was about knee-high. After warming up we went to the putting greens and we noticed how lush green and fast they were this was exciting. As we started to play through the front nine we noticed that the fairways were very fast but they had major weed growth and weeds all throughout the fairways We weren’t sure if this was due to the rain that they had. The fringes around the greens were brown and needed work, although the greens themselves were in great condition. We love the course layout but hope the next time we play The fairways and the approach around the greens are in better shape We will be back and play another day

Harmony after the rain

Harmony is noted for its exceptional drainage, it met the task. We had 3 days of solid rain from a tropical depression prior to my round. Surprisingly there was not any standing water on the fairways or putting surfaces. The course was well manicured. The only weak point that I can make is some of the tee boxes need work, weeds and bare spots on a lot of the tee boxes (blues). there were areas of crabgrass as well. The pace of play was good and the club personnel was very friendly. The course played well and was challenging. I will definitely return and recommend this course.

Excellent course conditions!

My tee time was at 9:37am. My wife and I expected the place to be overly crowded and a slower pace of play. When we checked in the staff greeted us with a warm smile and our check in was seamless. When we teed off on the first hole we noticed the tee box and fairways were over seeded and it was lush and green. From tee to green the course was cut perfectly and the fairways were semi hard with a great roll out. The greens were beautiful and cut perfectly with a I/2 inch fringe. The greens held our approach shot and the put rolled smoothly with no diversion. The lines were true. This golf course and the team just earned a faithful followers. We will definitely return. I recommend this course to everyone.

Great Fairways and fast greens

I went to play Viera East golf club this Friday at 10:22 AM. I noticed the over seeding has come in and the fairways were lush and green and were in wonderful shape. It had been raining for the past four days so they weren’t quite as firm as I’d like them to be, however they were green and lush and cut to the right height. The The greens were fast and you could Be sure that with the soft conditions the approach shot would hold on the green. In my opinion from Tee to Green course played very well and I will definitely go back and I’m proud to call Viera East our local golf course

Challenging course

Although this course is short the tight fairways lend to accuracy. You need to keep in the fairway to get birds advantage. The cart paths and tee boxes need work but the greens are in great shape! I will make sure I play this course again!

Great Value for the money!

Great course layout. The fairways were fast. The greens were fast and true. The pace of play was averaging considering the amount of players. No starter which made it confusing on hole 1. The greens and bunkers needed work but the greens rolled well considering the conditions. I will play again.

Challenging but needs work

Overall the fairways and greens were is fair shape. Fast greens and the bunkers needed a ton of work overall it was an enjoyable outing an I would recommend to anyone looking for a challenge. The course layout presented an challenge with the water and the undulating fairways.

Great Time

I got the opportunity to play on Labor Day 2017 I checked in and the staff was very people friendly and went out of the way to help me out I've never played this course before it has three nine-hole courses and I was able to play the river course and the Lakes course. The river course is challenging with views of the river throughout it's great the Dolphins were playing plenty of wildlife out there the fairways were in great condition and so were the greens greens were a bit soft but played well the pin selection was average not too difficult not to easy the Lakes course was a little shy of water it was open and flat and was very easy to keep the Ball in play. The club house was clean a little pricey for a hotdogs but all in all it was well worth the trip I will be happy to play there again
