Shingle Creek Golf Club

I skipped out on a conference one day during the week and played the nearest course which was Shingle Creek. I found the course to be in good shape and fun to play. There are a variety of teeing options and I played up so my age (68) and handicap (20) allowed me to compete with the course. I grabbed a discounted tee time from Golf Now and rented clubs. All that plus drinks on the course and I was under $150. On the negative side the greens had been aerated about 3 weeks prior and they were still not back to perfect. Putts would sometimes bounce or be re-directed by the uneven surface. I also found the greens to have severe ridges and mounds that I thought were unfair. All in all, it was a good round and I would do it again for the price.

Was struggling to find a last minute tee time amongst all the options in the greater Orlando area. Was thrilled that we landed on Shingle Creek as I was pleasantly surprised how incredible the experience was. The only knock was they didn't mention the greens had been recently aerated (2.5 weeks before playing) but they still rolled decently well. Would love to play it when the greens are pristine. Otherwise, great bang for your buck and just expect a 4.5-5 round as it's definitely a resort course.

Fun course with tees to challenge all players. Greens are the toughest part of the course with all of them having multiple tiers or mounds. The snack shack being between 7 and 8 really slows down play, though. Should have phone ahead service only.

Booked a twilight round, Pro Shop attendant Anthony stated the 1st tee should be open and the course fairly clear. Not truthful, pulled up to 1st tee and 4some is teeing off at our tee time. Ending up starting on the back 9. Greens still have not recovered from aeration as we found out. On hole 16 rain comes through and passes within 15 minutes. Attempted to continue the round but Anthony drives out and states the course is closed and we are unable to finish. Asked for a raincheck but was brushed off as we booked a twilight time.

Poor customer service to not offer at least 50% credit to come back another day, when we attempted to continue.
Hoping he enjoyed getting home early Friday night at the expense of a customer.

TLDR - Price paid not worth green conditions and poor customer service received unfortunately. Course closed early (7:00) no credit given only finished 7 holes.

Course was amazing as usual. Only complaint is the greens are still recovering a bit from aeration which is understandable. Rate was adjusted based on green conditions. In no time they will be smooth and quick 👍🏼

Shingle is always an enjoyable day. Not sure about other posts stating they were not notified of the aerated greens. I knew, but took the discount and enjoyed the day. While the course is rebounding you may want to do the same. I would say give the greens till the 12th or later if you are expecting excellent putting conditions. But you will pay full price at that point.

Greens were being aerated but that was posted everywhere. Amenities, course, staff all were great.

Tip: Towel on the leather cart seats so you don’t burn.

Course was cart path and it was not properly announced when I paid for the tee time. Greens were in poor condition.

The fairways and greens are punched and the greens are sanded. Just assume a two put on every green and move on because it is like putting on a sidewalk. Cart path only made for a very slow round. Otherwise a nice course.

I played on a Deal Time and it was a great value. The course played hard, tight and fast. You could tell they're getting ready to plug the greens because they were perfect. The bunkers were edged and raked.
The only downside was $8 plus tip for a 14 oz. Yuengling. Ouchy.

I was very impressed with how well maintained the course was. The staff was very friendly and respectful. I will play there again

Very well maintained. Firm fast fairways and greens. Well groomed rough and bunkers. Very friendly staff at bag drop. My only complaint was lack of food options at the snack shack. Apparently there was a big tournament that wiped them out so I understand it
