The New Otter Creek

This course was destroyed just a little over 1-1/2 years ago by a shady at best management company. I quit playing here for well over a year. My first time back and I was absolutely amazed at the changes in the course. The greens were good to very good and some of the really difficult areas of the course were made more playable for the average golfer. The fairways that were once dirt are now full of grass and the wet spots have had drainage tile added to them.
I always loved this scenic course and am now very happy it's back to the shape it was many years ago. I can't thank the staff enough. GREAT DAY GOLFING

2 putt greens

The greens are in bad shape due to aeration. Hopefully, they will make a big difference later in the summer. Right now the greens are 2 putt and on to the next hole.

Bad time of year

All the greens have been aeriated and need some time to recover. Course layout and pricing are always good reasons to play.

Otter Creek

the greens were in the worst condition I have ever seen. a trip to the driving range would have been better.. although they were just punched and sanded they were not put table and the cups hadn’t been changed in a few days. I think a notification of the condition of the course before the tee was made would have been good.

Otter Creek unplayable

Golf now put the song of the creek which was unplayable due to it being Holland time. The staff however kindly put us on the other calls. Which was good. We cannot review Otter Creek.

Must be the worst course in Florida!

Fairways patchy, greens in poor condition. Couldn’t putt on two because of the thick layer of dressing.
More bare lies on the fairways than grass!
Won’t play there again and won’t recommend it to anyone. Shame because in its current condition they’ll lose a lot of custom.

Needs work

I will first say the irrigation system did not appear to have been working. The only thing green was the green dye sprayed on the greens, not much grass. Restaurant was much better, although a little pricey. Would not recommend until water is done.

Sad state

It looked like the irrigation system was not working, very dry. The only thing green about the greens was the dye that was sprayed on. There was almost no grass on the greens. Restaurant had good food albeit a little pricey. Will not go back until I see better reviews.

Never ever have I seen a course in such horrible shape. Tee boxes, fairways, greens all looked diseased and burned up. It was terrible.

Love the Course Layout

Got Otter Creek for $20 bucks on Golfnow and had a decent round. There are several greens that are really rough, But that being said the layout of the course is challenging and scenic. I really enjoyed a number of the holes because the surrounding were beautiful. IF they can get a hold of the conditions of the course this will be a jem of a course. The staff was friendly and went out of their way to show me how to get started on the first hole. I will definitely be back for the price and challenge of the course.
