Not a bad course, but a municipal layout that gets an awful lot of play. They send folks out every 7 minutes and things tend to back up. Bunker rakes are on the carts and not on the ground. As a result, the traps are seldom raked. The fairway and green conditions were better than I expected. The driving range is abysmal (no woods).
This is a $50 golf course, and that is about what Florida residents pay. Out of state golfers, however, are gouged for $160. That's highway robbery.
Would travel: 0-10 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: Average course for the area, Better courses for less nearby
