Golf Course Scam
Heron Bay is currently run by Golf Link. I booked a foursome through Golf Now. One of my party did not show because of having the Flu. GolfNow chose to bill me for the NO SHOW! They claim they called the golf course and the Heron Bay took a stand that we didn't cancel within 24 hours. Also, very hard when you make your tee time within the 24 hour period. This course is one of the worst courses around and a long way from being the renown TPC of years past. Fairways were a mess and the greens were as bad. Pace of play took forever! May be good for the Seasonal Tourist but they will die come summer time when they depend on all the locals. Much better courses nearby. Eagle Trace, Woodmont CC, Carolina and Colony West. You never have to worry about getting screwed by the golf courses.
Heron Bay
Hadn’t played here in a year or so because some Doctors group started turning this TPC course into a cow pasture. New owners have taken care of that. Green we’re a bit slow but that probably was from the rain the night before. The rough is now easier to find goof balls that aren’t hit on the fairway. Overall had a great time on this course.
This place is AWFUL!!!! They should consider closing this goat track!!! Management is atrocious!!!
What to say? I don't even know where to begin.
The entire place looks dilapidated and disappointing. The course conditions are awful. The layout is one of the most boring in all of South Florida.
At least they finally have new carts. The old ones belong in a junk yard.
The management is terrible and unfriendly. It really seems they are in above their head. Previous experiences at the course have been less than welcoming. The attitude is very self centered and doesn't cater to customers wants or needs. A real let down.
ClubLink should definitely consider selling this property off to someone who is actually willing to spend some money on upkeep and also hire employees that care about their job. They have sold Woodlands to a developer to build more and more homes n site and to eradicate the course completely.
Nice course
I just love this course: nice layout, friendly staff and good lunch after golfing.
Restrooms need to update.
Fair conditions, but the coffee
Cart guys were great, cart girl was great, staff all together were great. However, I couldn't believe the offered fresh coffee (not fancy stuff) and charging for it!! Here's the kicker..... while issuing us vouchers for free draft beer, but the coffee aint so cheap. It was presented to serve yourself as you exit the pro shop with a tiny sign that stated the price, which my fellow golfers didn't see until it was too late. It was actually comical, especially for a guy that doesn't drink coffee.
Very nice
Great layout, beautiful setting, greens smooth and true.
Knee deep in mud
This is the worst conditioned course I've ever played. Every shot resulted in an embedded mud ball. Took all the fun out of the game. At least by switching the nines they got rid of that horrible human that served as their starter
Beau terrain mais pas après une forte pluie
Le terrain est très bien il y a beaucoup de fosses de sable en jeu. S’il on enlève le fait du terrain détrempé c’est un beau terrain côté qualité prix.
Seul B mol les nids de fourmis rouges ( fire ants) très désagréable mais les employés étaient à l’œuvre pour les éradiquer.
Nous irons le jouer de nouveau
poor condition!
I see why it is so cheap. Poor condition, no sand in traps. only positive is nobody plays there! Try others!
terrible conditions
I have played this course alot and I have never seen the fairways and rough in worse shape...I will never go back it almost was unplayable. . The greens were fine but very little grass in faiirways, mostly crabgrass and tufts of weeds...sad for a former pga tour stop....the residents must be angry they live in golf community and can't play their home course
Total goat ranch and rude staff
Don't waste your time or money! Total goat ranch, minus the goats, even they could keep the fairways in better shape. You could use the bunkers for the newest skate park. Losing balls in the fairways because of the 2 inch trim. 30 minutes at the turn to get a hot dog, seemed to be a problem for the pretender to do anything. Sad days for this former good property. I really feel bad fr the homeowners who were duped into buying here as it brings a new meaning to "country" club.
Lot of bunkers
Enjoyed playing this once great course. It is a shame to see such a nice layout fall under neglect. Weeds everywhere, greens bumpy and slow. Still had fun. Good value. I was just hoping for a little better conditions.
Nice Day to Play
Great value. Lots of sand so challenging but all in all a good course and great value.
Needs a lot of TLC and improvements
I have played this course several times over the past 10 years, and the course conditions have gone from excellent when the Honda Classic was played here many years ago, and now only fair to poor today. On the positive side, the greens were in very good condition on May 18, 2017, evidently the result of some work done last year.
However, the fairways were filled with weeds and bare spots, the tee boxes mostly weeds, and the sand traps are very poor, not maintained, and called "waste areas" by the club. Now owned by Club Link, it is clear that not enough is being done by Club Link to bring back the previous quality of the course.
Good attitude by the Pro Shop attendants, and selection of golf products, and a small grill room for lunch and beverages.
Unfortunately, this course could be improved with lots of money, if Club Link has the money, but it does not appear to be something the owner is willing to do.
