Course had avery nice layout. Lots of water to challenge the average player (which I am). Lots of trouble to find. At this price the course was a steal, but course conditions were less than spectacular. Not awful like any dogtrack, but not great, bordering on average, which just wasn't expected playing in Orlando. Compared to the $175 and $250 courses, this was a bargain, but back home this was just an average $30 for an average round. Had to drive a little to get there, but it was worth the trip. I know that this sounds like a mixed review and it is to a point, but the bottom line is, for the price I would absolutely play it again, the course was nice, just needed a bit more upkeep.
Would travel: 20-30 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
