26-Oct-00 Jack Armstrong says:
A very solid course on the near West Side of Orlando. Excellent
condition. Many elevated targets make approaches deceiving.
In my opinion, a little pricey compared to other package couses
of similar quality. Still, an enjoyable experience. |
29-Jul-02 John V. Rutigliano says:
Coures is in great condition. 12 and 13 were a little soggy.
The fairways and bunkers are in great shape. The greens are
fast and true. I would make it a stop if you are in town.
I have played all the Grand Cypress coures and this ranks
right up there with them. |

Marty McClune SAYS...
Very nice course. Eight of us played it on 1/22/04. We all
felt the same about it, thought it was in great shape. Although
they claim to have the best greens in Cent Florida, we did
not feel the same way, but enjoyed the course quite a bit.
