Love the layout, but the crabgrass is out of control.

Mixed Emotions ... But sloooow goes

Conditions are serviceable (greens appear to be trying to recover)... But ... Pace of play is atrocious. If Timacuan would invest in a ranger ... OR ... be more mindful of stacking these tee times, it would make for an enjoyable day. Pace of play is always a top priority for us. Why not spread out tee times by 2 or 3 or even 5 more minutes? Yes, it's a short term hit financially, but people would be more apt to return after an enjoyable well paced round. We played the front nine at a snails pace and after 9 we decided to replay the front to get out of the log jam (fortunately front 9 finally opened up later in afternoon). With so many newbies taking up the sport, there needs supervision (aka a ranger) to help educate players and also keep the line moving. Offer someone free golf maybe to be the ranger if you can't financially afford one.

The usual issue ... Pace of play

Nice course, with better than average conditions. Quite a bit of hard pan inside 100 yards. Greens very nice! Very personable staff, which is appreciated. Main issue that always causes heartburn is pace of play. It blows my mind that courses can have more than sufficient staff, but can't invest in a ranger to keep the line moving. There are so many new folks taking up golf and more than ever courses need a ranger to keep the slow moving people headed in the right direction.

Nice as always, but ...

Pace of play is just horrendous. We always love making the trip to Mission Inn. Courses are well maintained, staff is pleasant, and lunch always hits the spot. It's the same complaint almost everywhere we go ... Slow slow slow! Please put a few extra minutes in-between tee times and have your ranger be a little more authoritative in moving slow groups to the side (or educate them). There are a lot of folks who truly don't understand the impact they have on the rest of the course. I don't expect people to rush, but be mindful and prepared to play your shot. In the end, my monies are going to the facility and it's on them to police pace of play. It's become an issue of epic proportions and there are a lot of talented people at Mission Inn that I'm sure can find a creative way to help the situation.

Disappointed ... Recovery Conditions

Course is still in a recovery state after recently being punched. When this isn't communicated up front it really sucks. We all understand it's a necessary evil, but course mgmt has a responsibility to be open and honest about it. I also didn't appreciate walking up to the front door and the gentlemen from the pro shop lighting up a cigarette while we walk in. Couldn't wait 5 minutes until after we were checked in? We were also told the cart girl's name and that she would be around. Never saw her once. We even called into the pro shop after 13 holes and were told she was out on the course. I love the layout of the course, but the attention to detail is substandard. Hoping things turn around.

Price does not match course conditions

I know we are still in prime season, but $65 is out-of-bounds for the current conditions. Wekiva is sure licking their chops at the increased demand, because $40 is more in line. If summer time, more like $30. I payed $85 to play LPGA last week and it was worth every penny. Thank goodness we got out early and had a quick round. The only saving grace.

Nice greens ... but...

Never seen rough so out of control. Like a French woman on a shaving hiatus. Areas not mowed for weeks. Severely penalized for balls not piped down the fairway. Spotty grass and pot holes throughout course. Greens decent, but otherwise subpar - especially for near $50.

Maybe switch to astroturf?

Majority of the greens are a hot mess right now. Casselberry is close, convenient, and a good value ... but ... there are many greens with huge bare spots. The city has made some investments in the course, but it's about to lose the greens. I guess an overseed will get them through the coming months, but they need a longterm plan to fix the greens.

Courtesy Heads-Up Please

We drove a long ways to find punched greens. I just dont understand why no alert was shown on Golfnow (plus we talked with the proshop on the phone). It's a simple common courtesy. Conditions were wet, so they also closed one of the 9s. After 1 hr 15 min to get through 4 holes, we were offered a raincheck. We left and will hopefully return in the future. A real bummer when the expectation was to play 27+ holes.

Great Experience!

First time out at Harmony today. Nice layout, cordial staff, a real gem. Some of the greens had a few weeds around the collars, but overall the resident rate was very fair for the conditions. Pace of play on this Saturday afternoon was excellent. Will definitely return!

Mayfair - 10/13/13

The course was in pretty decent shape. The lady running the desk in the pro shop was so friendly and accommodating. It makes such a difference when you are dealing with wonderful, customer-focused employees. Our main issue was with the pace of play. It was a beautiful day for the outdoors, but quite a few people on the course.

Red Tail - Aug 31

It was our first trip to Red Tail and we had a great time. Not many folks on the course, so we pretty much played right through. Greens in very good shape. For someone like myself that is just starting to break 100 on occasion, I felt it was a fair course layout. Nice undulating course. If you don't mind sounds of cows mooing in the background, you are in for quite a treat! The staff was helpful and very cordial.

A Pleasant Surprise!

This was our first time visiting Errol and it was a nice treat! Overall, the course was in good shape. A few minor issues on a couple greens, but it had no impact on our play. The staff was the most courteous we had ever experienced. Kudos for caring so much!

Needs some care

Rolling Hills is a fun course to play, but could use some attention. It's a decent value for the money, but could be so much more! I would recommend this course to a friend, with the caveat of them knowing the condition of the course. The course could be a jewel, but for the price it is what it is.
