Grand Cypress - North/South

Great Course. Super conditions. Good challenge. Played this Course many times before.

I've played all three nines. East is the worst of the lot. Island green is the worst island green I've played on (out of 10 or so) - its quite large, wedge shot downhill, and there's trees/rough/bunkers to help you stay on.

So in summary: play south/north. If not, south/east. If not, north/east.

Souths the best 9, then North, then East.

The good about them all:

Consistently great shape tee to green. Never a let down.

Muy linda cancha con buenas vistas,excelentes greens.

Course was in fantastic shape. Green were rolling perfect amd they were all consistent. Most of the pins were tucked and in pretty difficult positions, but it made it more challenging and fun. Plus I got to meet Ken Griffey Jr on the range so all in all....pretty good day.

We had a good golf and lunch experience at the Grand Cypress golf course today.. Friendly staff, course is in great shape, and the food in the restaurant was delicious.. The only negative was that the red tees were pushed back to within a few yards of the white tees and my wife had to play almost 6000 yards for 18 holes. She typically plays 5200 to 5400 yards in 18 holes.

Played East / North as foursome. Course itself in good condition. North better than East. Greens rather fast. Tee boxes, fairways and bunkers well playable. Pace was not good at all – almost five hours! No player’s assistant out there to speed it up. But overall a very good track

Wow. Better than ever. The course to play.
North south and East.

Played the North and East nines. Both courses were in excellent condition with fast greens. What made it better was the hot deal I was able to use even though I stayed on site. Cheers to Golf Now.

Course is always in great shape, staff is great, facilities are best in area, pace of play this time of year is very good, did 18 in 3 hours.

Beautiful course with a real nice layout....only downfall was carts had no GPS

It was very nice course north to south after a hard rain it drained well, Play the New course a few days later and it was also very enjoyable I will return when visit Orlando

Every time I play this course, it is inevitable that I want to return to play here again and again. I would recommend this course to anyone who wishes to have a great time, and play golf in a pristine environment.

I booked on golfnow to play in a foursome, when I checked in I was told that I would be playing with 2 members and a young chinese girl who was aspiring to become a professional golfer.

When I got to the starter the two members had already gone ahead of the tee time and the chinese girl when she arrived somewhat rudely stated that she did not want to play with me and would proceed alone, leaving me high and dry.

Frankly if she ever wants to make it to the professional ranks she needs to learn some manners.

Fortunately another single turned up about 20 minutes later which saved me bagging it for the day and I had a pleasant day with the young man from Mexico city marred only by the condition of the greens on the back nine.

The South couse was superb, great layout in fantastic condition, not so the North course, the greens had been very recently aerated and were very poor ( not disclosed on golf now, very poor form Grand Cypress) which spoiled a day which was looking up for a while.

We came across numerous discarded balls a couple of times almost hit the wrong ball and assume these carelessly left behind by the chinese girl ahead who was playing multiple balls.

So I would play the course again if conditions were right but not book on golfnow because this issue with booking as a single and being messed around by the starter is getting old.
