Wekiva Golf Club

Our weekly group had not been at Wekiva for some time due to the less than stellar reviews. Howeve, after seeing some better reviews, we decided to give it a try. Our day started when we checked in with the staff member whose demeanor might generously be described as "surly". Perhaps he was only being sarcastic but he came off as unhappy to be there dealing wth the public. We got to the tee a few minutes before our appointed tee time only to encounter two golfers who had hit their drives but continued standing on the tee looking furtively toward the clubhouse. Turns out that there were two other members of their group who were still in the clubhouse but the guys who hit just stood there ignoring our calls to move on and made our group of 12 wait until their buddies managed to mosey down from the clubhouse. After they finally hit, we were ready to go but a three-some whose time had been 20 minutes before ours but who had been late getting to the course suddenly drove up and announced that aomeone at the desk had told them just to go to the tee because they were next. Had a Ranger been there, none of this would have happened. Eventually, the first of our three groups was able to tee off. Unfortunately, the course was in relatively poor condition. Almost every fairway had several areas where the grass was very sparse so if you wanted to hit off anything other than dirt, you frequently had to look around for a tuft of grass. Yet, the fairways actually were in better condition than the greens, most of which seemed to be comprised largely of "tamped down" sand with some grass that had been painted with a black/green stain of some sort. High shots coming to the green tended to plug and putting was a bit of an adventure. The best part of the course were the bunkers...at least the ones I visited...which were in decent condition. Some us had vouchers from Group Golfer but others paid the full price. For the $29 voucher, it was okay. Those in our group who paid the full price all said it wasn't worth $45 and even those who had a voucher said they don't want to return until conditions improve.

Solid course with some nice holes. Particularly liked the par 5's. It was a windy day which made some of the holes very challenging.
Overall, a very good experience and golf course.

Since being sold to Seminole County, the improvements were slow at first, but over the last couple of months, you can see that the course is heading in the right direction. Greens are rolling smooth, tee boxes are being repaired, and the course is looking better. For the value and the convenience of being around d the corner, it beats playing Sweetwater and the staff is much more friendly at Wekiva

The staff was rude and racist at the pro shop. The conditions of the course were the worst I’ve ever seen.

First time playing this course. Previous reviews had mentioned that a lot of work was being done on it. A few tee boxes and other areas were being worked on. But clearly the clubhouse is taking improvements seriously. Give it another month or two and this course will be in great shape. Only real things to gripe about are the greens and repetitive bunker placements, but even then this course was a good time.

Overall the course was nice. Not too difficult and the layout was decent too. Staff was super cool. Only complaint would be the old guys that are hitting off the women's tees but wanna complain about the group in front of them not playing fast enough for them to finish their round and get to their all you can eat applesauce and cottage cheese buffet reservations they made. Hit off the men's tees and maybe you wouldn't be so upset.

This place is making a comeback, greens are good, grass on most of the fairways, tee boxes being repaired, new carts. Spring and summer should be great. Thanks Wekiva

Course needs to adjust their tee time intervals from 7 mins to at least 9/10 mins. If you play here you will be waiting between every shot. Difficult to get any sort of rhythm. Played with my wife the women’s tee boxes need some work uneven and not maintained. Price was good, fairways are decent, greens are good too. Pace of play really drags down the entire round waiting between every shot.

Good Value for 18 hole county owned course; fairways are average at best, dried out and run down; tee boxes are average; fair layout and definitely still a challenge; just not luxurious with all the bells and whistles of nicer courses; only a couple holes water comes in; mostly wide fairway drives and good distance from white tees.

The city or county bought Wekiva golf club in past year and is putting improvements all over to restore this ..greenskeeper is happy and this is the best value golf course in area. I visit Florida every year for two weeks in February and seen good greens and well packed sand traps. I will be back

We select the course because the price, but they need to improve the grass on the greens and they have couple of par three playing on a provisional tee from 60 yards or so
But the layout is rally good

I live on the 14 fairway. This course is improving but they don't have green or tee areas roped off properly. People drive their carts right up to the tees and greens. For God's sake, please rope off all the tees and greens and there will be a huge improvement. This is a very inexpensive fix.

Interesting layout. Conditions were good. A few bare spots in fairways but not many. Greens rolled well. Moderate speed. Traps in good condition. The only real water hazzard is 17, a par 3. Tee box was closed so you chipped on from 30 yards away. Number 12 also had a temporary tee box for a 110 yd shot for everyone. While it was not a big deal, in the interest of honesty, these changes should be known before you play. Nice that they're working to make the course better.
