Royal St. Cloud, St. Cloud, FL

This course is one of our favorites in the Orlando area. It's a links style course but with lots of variety in the holes and many bunkers, ridges, and stone walls. There are 3 nine hole courses, Red, White and Blue. We were told Red is kind of tight so we choose to play the other two courses every time we go. 
We have been there 3 or 5 time and have not seen a cart person yet. We paid $40/person which is very reasonable for a Florida course and unlike a lot of Florida courses, the bathrooms are not locked.
There are trash cans and ball cleaners every hole which is nice. We've not eaten there so I can't comment on the food. They have British phone booths where you can order at the turn food. It is a well maintained, scenic course that we enjoyed playing very much.

Pebble Creek Golf Club, Tampa, FL

We enjoyed this course, even though it was very cold for a Florida day. It is an older course with a lot more trees than most Florida courses. There was a lot of water on this course. In fact, they brag that 16 holes have water on them. The course was in decent condition but the rough was a little too long for me. We saw a lot of birds on this course so I liked that. It was reasonably priced for a Florida course so I'd like to try golfing here on a warmer day.

MetroWest, Orlando, FL

This course is a newer (1987) Robert Trent Jones course located about 10 minutes away from Universal Studios. It's a little longer course for women than most Florida courses. There's lots of sand on the first nine and water on the back nine. The back nine was "prettier" than the first nine. Because this is a fairly reasonably priced course ($38 from golfnow.com) it was pretty crowded. There were bathrooms and a code was needed to get in. The cart girl was around quite often but beer was $5 a bottle! It was in good condition especially considering all the rain but there were certainly some flooded areas that had to be avoided. We didn't eat here but the clubhouse looked very nice. We did try to go back there the following January when we were there but couldn't get a tee time! Like I said, when you get a reasonably priced in course in Florida, it's always crowded!

Golf Club of South Georgia, Tifton, GA

I thought this was a new course because there was a temporary clubhouse, looked like one was being built. There was no beer and not a good bathroom. The paths were terrible, really broken up.  But on reading the website, the course was built in 1992 so I'm not sure what's going on.  The webpage is old but they do have a facebookpage with more recent info on it. https://www.facebook.com/TheGolfClubOfSouthGeorgia/

From the facebook page, I've gathered that there are new owners. The tee boxes were really nice and there was an island par 3, as well as some other really nice holes. It was $30/person and no one else was there, which is always nice for us. Of ocurse, it was January in Georgia so maybe it was too cold for most people.

The fairways were in good condition and the greens were OK. There are some really good reviews on the facebook page so I'm sure if we're in the area, we'll try it again.

Cooks Creek, Asheville, Ohio

We loved this course. We "accidently" found it on our way back from Myrtle Beach. It was late in the year and kind of cold so we pretty much had the course to ourselves. The pro shop was empty but I think that was because of the time of the year. They had nice port-a-potties which were very clean. The course was in nice condition and had a lot of holes we really enjoyed.

Addendum 10/21/15: I was anxious to go back to this course on our way down to Myrtle Beach this year. However, I discovered it is now Raintree South and the recent reviews are very mixed. The condition of the course has deteriorated (though everyone still praises the layout) and the pro shop/clubhouse is non-exsistent. If I go, I will again amend this review.

River Club, Pawleys Island, SC

River Club is now part of the Founders Collection, a golf management company, that took over this club right before we golfed here. There was a lot of talk about the course being "taken over" but so far everything seemed fine. The course was a little wet in spots because there was a lot of rain and there was some work being done so some machinery around, but seemed in fine condition. There are bathrooms on the course but no cart girl and no driving range.  There are water hazards on several of the holes but nothing really "scary". We'll play this course again.

The Legends - Heathland, Myrtle Beach, SC

The Legends Golf & Resort has five golf courses and offers breakfast and lunch with every round of golf. We've golfed at two of the five courses previously. Heathland is the links style golf course and like all of the Legends golf courses was pretty crowded.  The Legends is a popular place for groups coming into the Myrtle Beach area and with good reason.  It's always in good condition and you receive good service from everyone. There's a nice driving range, a full service clubhouse, a beautiful "pub" and great staff. I've never stayed there but the accomodations look very nice. We enjoyed the course very much (even though I'm not fond of links style). It was in great condition, especially for the "end" of season.
