We booked this course through golfnow.com for a very reasonable price of $30. The bad thing was there were 8 golfers scheduled for the same tee time! The starter says this happens when folks book online. We were paired up with 2 very nice men who, thankfully, golfed with the same ability (or lack of) as us. The starter kept things moving well so although there was a wait, it wasn't unreasonable. The course was in good shape for the time of year. It's a family owned course that claims to have water on 16 of the holes. I don't think it was that bad but there was quite a few holes with water involved. There were a lot of dogleg holes so the men had to think about driver use but I only had to on two of them. Fairways were in good condition but if you didn't hit the fairway, you really had to look for the ball...the grass was that spongy grass that really ate up the balls. Greens were in OK condition...a little fast. The cart girl was around frequently but she "threatened" not to come out because she "wasn't getting good tips" which I thought was an odd remark. There was a bathroom on the course that was accessible on the front and back nine and there was a turn as there is on most Florida courses. We had a snack at Mulligans after the round...nachos made with home made chips, not nacho chips - potato chips. Unusual but good. I didn't like that it was hard to see golfers from the terrace but it was a nice area. I enjoyed this course a little more than other Florida courses I've done because although there was no elevations, there were lots of challenges...doglegs, water & trees...to contend with. I especially liked hole 18 which was a little dogleg par 4 - you had to hit up to water, then over it to a well protected slightly elevated green. Would definitely golf here again IF it wasn't so crowded!
