Course Older but Quality

It is an old course but in good condition. The fairways and greens were both in very good condition. Rough was just enough to be playable but thick enough to make it hard to hit out of. Pace of place was excellent, 3 hours for a threesome. Our group will definitely be back again.

Great value

Played Friday 8/23 with one other golfing buddy. Staff was exceptional- cudos to Bill,Jessica and Randy. Course was in surprisingly great shape considering all the recent rain. Greens we're excellent. Pace of play was really good unroll the last couple holes when we got behind a slower foursome that wouldn't let us play thru. Overall an excellent value for the $.

Great Experience

This is one of the nicest courses i have played. It has the history of Florida. A Herbert Strong design. The fairways were plush. The greens were without a blemish. The ball rolled true. The play was slow because of a foursome in front that could have moved much faster. We should have called the pro shop. We were very impressed and will return.

Overall 4.5 stars for me

The fairways, greens and tee boxes were all in very good condition. The layout was challenging but fair. Some wide fairways mixed with some narrow ones. Practice facilities were pretty nice. Friendly staff. Nice, newer golf carts. The only negatives were the surrounding neighborhood was pretty ugly and run down and there’s not too much shade. Being close to the bay made for some nice breeze though to compensate for lack of shade. Enjoyable round of golf

Pictures where better than course

It was like a movie were all the good parts were in the trailer
The pictures on Golf Now showed only the good hole with white sandy bunkers were most of the hole the bunkers were mediocre at best. Decent corse, but don't expect a REAL country club experience.

Really nice

I've played here a few times but the course conditions were the best I've seen. Greens were quick and true. And if you were in the fairway you could pretty much assume it would be a good lie. For $34 it was a great deal, and that wasn't a 'Hot Deal'. ( The 'Hot Deal" was $40. Huh? ).

2nd visit

After playing SPCC twice this week, I was very pleased with the pace of play (3.5 hours), excellent full grass fairways (no bare spots), same with the tees. In spite of the green aeration and top-dressing over a week ago, the greens were pretty good and will be excellent once grown in. Check in was a breeze with friendly staff. A plus was staff picking up my clubs and setting up my cart for the round. The practice area for the irons is on mats while woods are on grass in an area adjoining the irons area. There’s a well conditioned practice green and chipping area. I did not use the restaurant. Overall. a very positive experience on other days.
