Other Thoughts:
This course is built on an old golf course in a nice neighborhood. It has immense potential, however that potential is squandered by poor course design and abysmal (if any) maintenance.
Most of the grass was knee high when I played, which probably explains why the rest of the course was completely empty. Also, not being able to make a pit stop until the end of 18 holes is very inconvenient on a hot Florida day.
There are several memorable holes including a nice home stretch: 16th pin on top of a large hill, 17th tee playing down off the hill across an open field and a picturesque finish on 18th.
Still, I would strongly discourage visiting this course unless conditions improve.
