I make it a point to play here every time I come to Florida. Usually more than once during a 3 month stay. It's about a 20 mile drive for me, but well worth it. The greens are nice and fast, and the fairway (what little I see of it) is always well tended. The bunkers are always raked as well. Breakfast in the clubhouse is very good, as are the sandwiches later on. The folks in the pro shop and the starter's shack are always friendly and helpful.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Ranks with the best in this price level
