well kept

a well kept course with some tight landing areas and carries over water. you must trust your shot. staff was great and we had a fun round.

sad

this used to be a fine course. not anymore. seems like this course has gone downhill ever since they built the new golf school.

fast greens

eagle dunesd is a fine layout in good condition. I'm lucky to have such a course so near my home. the other day was cool and breezy, so the sun didn't punish. got paired up with 3 good men, seniors like myself. 6000 yards is getting tough for me, but the dunes has a good mixture of long and shorter holes. the greens were faster than usual this time, and sometimes really fast undulating greens are pretty tough on average (90-95) players. we had a good group who could laugh at our putting woes.

lonesome duffer

I always thought of golf as a social game, but it often seems that the once cordial atmosphere where one could join other friendly players and enjoy the round and the company is not as common as in days gone by. Are people on the course hesitant to welcome another and why? I've been playing golf for over 50 years, since caddying as a kid in Jersey. Only in recent years have I sometimes felt unwelcome by other players on local courses. Maybe these hard economic times have created uncertainty. It's a shame.

unhappy greens

Played here a month ago. The greens were fast & true. Now, the greens are a mess. I'll wait awhile before returning.

course making a comeback

two years ago this courise was awful. wednesday it was pretty good and enjoyable to play. most greens were in good shape. they were not fast but rolled well. the people in the pro shop were terrrific. we didn't eat there after, but two guys got hotdogs at the turn and seemed to enjoy them. weather cooperated, all in all a very nice day at Twin Rivers.

under the gun

sweetwater is a beautiful golf course. the greens have challenging slopes and were smooth and fast. you cannot help but enjoy it .....unless you get tired of the members always running up right behind you. a foursome of members has four carts and they are playing a 3 hour pace. you can let one play through, but there's always another one coming. it definetly can reduce your enjoyment.

what a shame

ten years ago rolling hills was a great course in a beautiful area. the area is still attractive, but the condition of the golf course is a shame. i used to look forward to playing here. when the price is right i might occasionally play because striking the ball on the fairways is better than standing on the range, but ,even so, the memory of what was will make me a little sad.

a great layout.

it's a shame a beautiful course like this is going down hill. the fairways are spotty as are some of the greens. the pro shop staff is always freindly but someone one greens staff must think its funny to put the holes on the steepest slopes on the greens. i suppose the conditions are just a result of the poor economy.

good fairways, very nice greens, but tees need work. overall, the course is in good shape.

had a golf & lunch special. pro shop people were professional & friendly and lunch service & food were terrific except for a poor review on the steak n cheese sandwich. we saw groups ahead and behind, but we were'nt pushed. considering the average age of our four is 81 years, a little over 4 hours was good time.

beautiful fairways & greens. much of the surrounding woods is very dense & wet. hit a ball in there, just let it go.

many courses are not replenishing the sand in the bunkers. we saw that here too. some were just wet, dense mud that i found difficult. aside from those, we enjoyed the course very much.

cranse roost at plantation is a great layout. my friends travel from orlando to play it, and the three of them are in their eighties.

plantation is a retirement development. their two courses would not be very challenging to young, low handicappers, but for the rest of us, especially seniors, both courses are great fun.

nice layout, very flat....no hills.

the only complaint is that the practice green is unusable, and the 1st green is slick with slope. four putting is not the way you want to start your round. other than that, we old friends had a ball.
