First Round of Year with My Boys

Despite the cool, early Spring temps and howling wind, we had a thoroughly enjoyable day at Stonewall Orchard. The staff is always helpful and the layout of the course is really a treat - no weak holes and great variety. Natural native grass areas bring North Carolina to mind. Played in well less than four hours despite cart path only. Only negative was that golf cart scoring system/touch screen did not work. Early Spring pricing was a value. I will definitely be back!

Much Poorer Condition Than Past

My son and I played Foxford Hills last Sunday and the condition of the greens and bunkers was very disappointing and much different than our past visits. Many of the greens were aerated recently, but there didn't appear to be any top dressing applied (or perhaps it had washed away)? The result was very bumpy surfaces all around. I would only lay a portion of the blame on the course maintenance staff, as I have never seen so many ball and spike marks in my life! I find it disturbing how many playesr have total disregard for their ball marks, step on cups,drag their feet on wet greens and on this day, leave rakes in the bunker right next to where they played their bunker shot from and neglect to rake it! Our tee time was just after noon and it seemed like there was three days worth of divots on par 3 tees and seemingly at the very least 10-15 huge ball marks on every green. Sorry not to recommend this track as it is a nice layout with some really interesting holes. The conditions were really pretty bad, however!

Best Par 3 Course I have played in my 50 years on the links!

Based on word of mouth reviews from friends who have lived in or visited South Florida, my two sons and I visited this course on the last day of our vacation in the Juno Beach area. We were originally scheduled to play 3/28, but driving winds made that impossible, and we rescheduled for the next day. While the strong winds were still a challenge, we thoroughly enjoyed the excellent conditions and spectacular views offered on this course. we arrived at 8:20 a.m. and there were only five cars in the parking lot. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. By the time we finished our round, the parking lot was filled to capacity. We learned that the restaurant upstairs from the golf shop was also a huge draw, and the food and views were just marvelous. The drive to and from the club were also most enjoyable, past the pristine estates on Palm Beach Island. The only difficulty was getting off the island due to President Trump's visit to the area that day! We can's wait to go back...I hope to be taking many friends and family there in the future!

Awesome Par 3 Course for Ocean Lovers!

I loved this course. We arrived at 8:15 am on a Friday and there were only five cars in the parking lot. We made an 8:40 time for our threesome with Golf Now. We played a thoroughly enjoyable round in just over two hours. The wind was blowing fairly stiffly throughout, which added to the challenge. Course was in terrific shape - tees, greens, bunkers, waste areas...the whole place!

Fun Round with My Boys!

Had an issue when I checked in...made our tee time on Golf Now, but club had no record of it. Staff was most apologetic and still got us out on time. Starter, pro shop, and snack bar staff were delightful. Brat at the turn was terrific.
Course was in good shape overall. Greens were a bit softbut decent speed. As public courses go, lots of unrepaired ball marks, unrated bunkers and u filled divots. Obviously not staff's fault, but come on people.
Bag drop and cart guys could use better training. Not communicative when unloading clubs and poor job rubbing up clubs at the end.
Forward tees were perfect for my 12 year old son, and beautiful day. We would definitely play again! Thanks!
