Pros:

Secluded, no other traffic besides golfers, usually not too crowded. No bathrooms, but when you're a man the world is your urinal. The golfers seem to pick up after themselves.

Cons:

Not much maintenance done on it, grass gets high, the majority of the holes won't offer the serious player a decent challenge.

Other Thoughts:

Fun course for the new/casual player. 9 holes plays pretty quick. I heard a rumor there are plans to expand it to 18. There's plenty of room for it and then some.

Lawnmower Please!!:) 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 9, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

The scenery alone makes this course worth the trip. There are palm trees all over the course, and some are grouped with pines to make for some wooded shots. There is a nice variance of wooded and open holes. Each hole has two concrete tee pads (which makes for a slight variance in your tee shots on several holes). Each hole has a colored tee sign that shows the multiple pin positions and where the basket is presently with routes on the signs. The course has very easy navigation and the next tee sign on several holes make it that much easier. The yellow rim of the discatcher's make the basket super easy to see against the green landscape. There are handmade benches on hole four and between seven and eight. Trash cans are located on six, eight and nine.

Cons:

The worst part of this course is the grass. It is ankle high at the lowest parts and almost knee high at the worst areas. This of course makes it easy to lose your discs (I spent over thirty minutes looking for my discs over the course of my round) A small stream that follows the first few holes that smells kind of like sewage. Small fire ants also are all over this course which sucks. I was picking them off me for several hours; they were also super itchy. There are no bathrooms (unless of course you count the woods, so sorry ladies).

Other Thoughts:

The fairways and paths between the holes are made out by stomped down grass. Make sure to bring bug spray and high socks for the aforementioned fire ants and mosquitoes. It is a great beginner course (not overly technical three disc course). Hole eight is an awesome tunnel shot; with palms and moss hanging in the fairway it's one of my favorite. Near tee one there is a rule sign and an ace sign with small wood chips. To write your name on.

Great course for a nine holer 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 29, 2008 Played the course:never

Pros:

This course is relatively new and although it's only nine holes it was worth my 45 minute drive to go to it. The wide open holes are nice but the wooded areas are beautiful and can be pretty technical. There are two tees per hole so it makes a fun 18.

Cons:

The only thing I will say bad about this course is that it needs to be 18 holes.

Other Thoughts:

Hopefully there are plans to upgrade this course to 18. Pics coming soon.
