Buffalo Creek is a good public course but, as a local, public course, it is way over priced.
There's also no excuse for the price to double during snowbird season for us players who support the course year round.
Great course to play
Fairways and greens were in great shape. Tee boxes are being worked on but playable. Staff was great and pace of place was good. Played once before but don’t get over to Bradenton area that often.
Will play here again!
Much improved
It's good to see the much-needed improvements taking shape. Good job on # 10 and #17 greens as well. The ponds are getting some water back, too. The ball washers didn't smell like pond water and the cooler still had water at the end of the day.
Buffalo Creek
Played this course a few times in past couple of years, last couple of times course was overbooked, had to wait for carts to come in. Five hour round waiting between every shoot is not fun. Will not be back.
Horrible, what are our tax dollars doing
Arrived at the 1st tee on time, (5 minutes early) only to learn the starter had lined three groups with later tee times to go off ahead of us. We asked the starter if tee times meant anytime or not. He indicated they did but offered no explanation what that was. .The foresome sent out ahead of us furned out to be terminally slow. Now to make our experience worse the course was in horrific shape. It turned an interesting layout into the worst dog track I have played in years.
Golf
Fairways are in very good shape couple of tee boxes here and there not so good. Greens had a good roll to them and very good shape for this time of year overall really like this course. Just enough of a challenge Play here you'll like it no houses around
Slow but fun
Enjoyed our round...nice people and beautiful day. Somewhat slow but to be expected this time of year.
Good Course to Practice Weather Difficulty
Very windy course. Great to play and practice when wind is gusting. Changes strategy. Would love to play on a non-windy day.
Great Course
First time playing here. Enjoyed it very much. Staff was great. Course layout was great. Being that my wife and i are still very green to golf we loved the layout and elevation changes for being in flat Florida. We had a great time and will definitely play here again.County owned course with no houses on it. was very busy being height of the season. They did run out of carts for the afternoon tee times so people had to wait (not the big of a deal). 2 of the greens had been tore up by some punks in a SxS about a month ago or so, they were a little rough but still playable. They did and great job getting them back in shape will take a little time to be perfect though.
Slow Day
Five and a half hours. Waiting on every tee. No ranger and no water at the halfway houses. Two greens had been vandalized. A very poor attempt to repair them had taken place. There was no mention of this when I paid.
Terribly slow Saturday Pace
Badly in need of a starter on a busy day like Saturday. Typically don’t play on weekends because of this problem. Someone needs to be governing groups as they go out. There should be no twosomes and do your best to completely foursomes so that there are not 5 plus hour rounds.
