The player-friendly Blackstone Golf Course boasts a reputation of being an excellent course for families. The gently undulating landscape is approachable to beginners while still providing a fair amount of challenge. The rolling terrain requires accuracy but most holes allow for short irons if you're willing to risk hitting your ball into the treetops. There is a stream that meanders through the golf course, coming into play on a number of holes. It also crosses through Blackstone's driving range. Strategically placed bunkers are also scattered throughout. The greens are in excellent condition, providing great putting surfaces. Blackstone Golf Course has garnered a local following because of its playability, which is helped by three sets of tees, and extremely reasonable rates. It's an excellent location for a casual round.

Greens Vs Fairways

Greens were in very good condition. Fairways were tolerable sometimes, and worse at other times. Paradoxical given how good the greens were.

The fairway edges at times were impossible to play or drive a cart. If these issues were fixed this would be a very good course, especially for the money.

Excellent layout

Greens excellent but a little slow. Environment not a typical FL course. Great uphills and downhills testing your golf skills.

Had some fun

strange driving range, not much staff when I showed up around 2, but it was not busy when I arrived. Guy in the pro shop was cool, friendly, and helpful. Couldn’t find anyone inside on the turn. greens were tricky, in a good way. may take a few times playing them to get a handle. florida february conditions. i’m sure the place is a diamond when the fairways are grown in. overall, a very fun, challenging 18 holes. i loved the several short par fours that give you opportunities to keep a low score. definitely coming back once our sunny peninsula comes back to life.

Blackstone

We were early in the season, so the tea boxes were not very green or manicured. The fairways were OK. The greens were beautiful and slow for putting. They had some nice subtle contours. The sand was well-maintained and soft.
