Enjoyed our game at sunny Ventura. Arrived early and were allowed to tee off early. Course is generally in good condition though some of the tees are a bit rough. Greens are very good - smooth and fast. Did not enjoy the front nine as much as the back which was far more open and less enclosed by homes. Back nine fairways seemed in better order too. In spite of not playing my best I would still recommend a visit - especially handy if looking for a game before flying out of MCO.

Was really looking forward to playing South Course as enjoyed North a few years ago. Feeling slightly underwhelmed as conditions not as exceptional as I’d expected. Greens were superb - slopey, quick and challenging. Felt fairways lacked growth so lies very tight. This is a tough course with difficult questions asked by many bunkers and water hazards. All that being said it is a great course that I’d love to play again and would not hesitate to recommend.

Had a great day playing Golf Hammock in Sebring. Staff all very friendly esp the starter who provided great info for the game ahead as well as recommendations for other local courses. Course is in very good condition and the greens (newly installed in 2023) are firm and very fast. Be careful not to leave too may downhillers!! Course was very busy but still got round as a foursome in 4 hours. Worth the drive and would recommend a visit.

Not sure why it has taken so long to arrange a game at Heritage Isles but delighted I made the effort to drive 90 minutes. It was a beautiful day and the course did not disappoint. This is a lovely layout with lots of water hazards making for some testing tee shots but nothing too extreme. Was in excellent condition with good tees and fairways - and the greens were smooth and very quick. There is also a lovely bar area from which you can view the excellent practice facilities. Will certainly be looking for a return visit soon and recommend highly

Friendly welcome at Pelican Bay. Very hot day on the course but enjoyed the layout. Lots of water along fairways but not too close - mainly used to separate course from houses. Course overall in good condition but greens could be better though lack of rain likely the reason. Great finishing hole with testing tee shot and tight approach due to well positioned trees. Would recommend a visit if in the area as good value

Enjoyed our day at Deltona Club. Friendly welcome and allowed to start early. Greens could be in better shape but understandable given lack of rain. Really enjoyed the layout which has some excellent holes but main feature has to be the continual changes in elevation which makes this a real pleasant change from the flat Orlando courses.

Having enjoyed playing Debary a couple of years ago I was keen to return. Managed to get a good Hot Deal price and have to say the course is as good as I had remembered. Received a real friendly welcome from starter Keith and was paired with 2 members who were great company. Course is in very good condition with greens running fast and smoothly. Not a lot of dog legs nor many water hazards but some really memorable holes. Fantastic holes to finish both nines with 18 my personal favourite. Look forward to a 3rd visit sometime soon

Had a great day at Temple Terrace. Staff and members really friendly. Got paired up with a lovely couple from Upstate New York which made the game even more enjoyable. Course is not too tough but is laid out well. Only one real water hazard made for a pleasant change from usual Florida courses. Lots of shots to tree lined fairways and some tough dog legs. Overall in very good shape with greens especially good. Highly recommended

Glencorse appears like it may be an easy short course when checking the scorecard but beware….the par 3 holes are not short and streams are in play on quite a few holes. Course in lovely condition after the dry spell with smooth greens. Food in clubhouse after round was excellent and staff very friendly. Highly recommend visiting this course

Very good value golf at Inverness. Greens were lovely with some slopes making approach putts tough to judge. Worth the long drive from Davenport and would recommend a visit

Friendly welcome when checking in which is always a good start. Course is in an RV park and front nine felt like playing trailer park golf - holes generally short and pretty tight. Back nine must have had a re-routing as satnav was off but we eventually picked up which holes had been changed. This second nine is a far better layout with way better holes. Course generally in good condition though greens very firm and slopey so putting was tricky. Good value

Enjoyable game at Rocky Point - welcomed by a friendly starter who paired us with a single which helped pace of play as it would have felt even slower as a twosome. Courses really should increase time gaps within their booking systems. Some recent reviews had not looked encouraging but not sure why as course was really good for time of year. Greens were lovely, smooth and quick enough to be testing. Plenty grass on fairways which is all that matters. One or two quirky holes where it is tough to judge placement of tee shot to avoid hazards but otherwise very enjoyable and would recommend!!

Enjoyable game - got paired with out of towners Rick & George who knew layout and were great to play with. Only $29 for 18 holes so great value with planes and parachutes to watch between shots. Course in reasonable condition - not a long course but not easy. Greens better and faster than they look

Fairways is not a particularly long course though certainly not an Executive. Course is in great shape with greens very fast and true, lots of grass on fairways and well positioned water hazards. Enjoyed the back nine more than front as it felt less tight and enclosed. Excellent value course and well worth visiting.

Enjoyed a great game on the North course after being allowed to head off early. This is a great layout with elevation changes and some lovely holes making use of well positioned water hazards. Greens were excellent and especially quick if left above the hole. Highly recommend a visit here and I look forward to returning.

Really enjoyable game at Deer Island. Course is in great condition though found greens slower than they look - still putted very smoothly!! Some fantastic views out over the many lakes and saw a few gators whilst playing. Highly recommend visiting Deer Island but make sure you have plenty spare balls!!

Very enjoyable game at Casselberry where we got a really friendly welcome in the pro shop to check-in. Course in nice shape with plenty grass on tees fairways & greens. Greens could have been quicker but did putt true. One or two quirky holes otherwise enjoyable layout. Certainly worth a visit

Booked to play as wanted to try another Donald Ross course. Staff all very friendly and was allowed to start early though not until last of the earlier shotgun had teed off on number one. This should have been a worry and rightly so as we had to play behind really slow guys/groups playing a club scramble until they finished on number 12. That said I enjoyed the course which has smooth fast greens. Fairways are patchy at best so played preferred lies so that I could at least approach Ross’s small greens from grassy lies. Grill room looked inviting as did the specials board.

Had never played Winter Pines over the years due to some not so good reviews. It looks like the new owners have really made a difference as this felt like a healthy club with friendly staff and a good vibe around the clubhouse. Course is in good shape with great fairways and tricky greens. Was allowed to tee off early by friendly lady in shop - got around in about 3 hours so pace was fantastic!! Would recommend!!

Really enjoyed a return visit to Carnwath. Be prepared for a tough back to back par 3 start. Take enough club at the first as plays longer than yardage due to steep slope up to well protected green. Course was in very good condition with greens absolutely rapid. Staff friendly with very good menu available in clubhouse.
