Tee boxes and greens are in great shape. The fairways are also in good shape for the middle of winter in Florida. We started on the back nine, and the starter left us standing on the par 4 No. 10 while he went looking for a foursome that was supposed to tee off before us. We waited for about 15 minutes, until the group ahead of us had finished the hole and moved on. Still no starter. We were already on the green when the starter finally returned, still without the foursome, and berated us for teeing off "out of turn" and without his permission. I'll gladly listen to a starter when he is actually doing his job, but no starter should hold up anybody because a scheduled group wasn't there on time. Had we waited for the starter, we would have been two holes behind the group in front of us and holding up yet another group. Some radio or cell phone communication between the starter and the clubhouse also would have been helpful.

Fast, tricky, well-protected greens

Water comes into play only on the 18th hole, when a long carry is required on the second shot to an extremely narrow green. The rest of the greens, many of them elevated, are protected by deep bunkers left and right. The greens are also fast and rolling, making even two-putts a challenge. Greens are in good condition, as are the tee boxes. Fairways are in good shape for a Florida winter.

Short, quirky holes

Greens and tee boxes were overseeded for winter and are in good condition. Several short par 4s and quirky par 3s. Lots of water and OB for errant shots.

Nice layout

Course is in good shape. Greens can be challenging. Back nine is especially nice with open fairways, elevation changes, and well-placed bunkers. New clubhouse should be open in February.

Needs work

Great layout. Small, well protected greens. Greens were a little sketchy with some bare and weedy spots, Tee boxes had been overseeded and were in good shape. Fairways, as happens in late fall, were patchy.

Improving, slightly

This course has fallen into disrepair over the last few years, but there are signs the ownership is trying to make improvements. The greens are in better shape than the last time I played here, about four months ago, but the fairways are still in ragged shape and the tee boxes are really bare.

Long but fun

There was some sand work being done on a few greens, but otherwise the course was in great shape.

Would not have played this course, except I got a great rate for obvious reasons. The fairways are OK, green, but not necessarily with grass. The greens, however, are weedy and bare in places, and the sand traps are in horrible condition. I like the layout and hope the owners can get it back into shape.

Only issue was the course let a group start on the back nine, just as we were making the turn, which slowed everything down.
