Will Be Back - Did not disappoint

Played Colony West - Championship course last year and tried it again after our good experience. Did not disappoint once again.
Check in was fantastic in the pro shop. They were polite and efficient. Starter got us off early. Course in good shape. Greens rolling fast and bunkers were raked and neat. Beverage cart on the course and the restaurant was open. Will be back again this year and again next year

Champions course

Greens are nice and big and receptive. Tees boxes need work. No ball washers to be found and no sand to fill divots. Also, no one fixes ball marks

Very Busy at the Starting Gate but Well Managed

I guess as most courses in March the pace was brutal. They need a Ranger or someone to manage the pace on the course to wake up some golfers that there are other groups trying to play a normal time-efficient round. Other than that this course is a great value!

Good course for the money

Paid $70 and felt that was a very good deal for a nice course. Greens were great. Fairway grass was pretty thin. No driving range is a drawback. Would definitely play it again.

Great course

I played here many times and enjoy both the Glades and the Championship course. The Championship course is in great condition with wide fairways. The only disadvantage is the bag drop point. You cannot drive carts to your car and there was no one to help me with my bags after I played. The bag drop is a ways away from where you turn in the carts. Parking is a real problem due to the new hotel just built. Otherwise, it was an enjoyable day.

Good but not Great

Course layout is Very Good and tough. Greens were decent, probably better than most. Rest of course conditions need a lot of improvement. For $68 OK, but $125, no way. Would play again if price was right.
