The layout of the course is interesting, challenging and features perfectly manicured lush, rolling fairways. You'll be glad you experienced this excellent combination of hole designs and truly great golf. Water comes into play on 10 holes.

Emerald Hills 4/20/25

Afternoon round starting at three on Easter day finished in the dark over 5 1/2 hours, not that busy but no rangers keep pace. Tee boxes are a mess. A lot better value in SoFL. Too bad, gone down hill.

For you to give this course a 5 is a disgrace and you should be barred for every being allowed to give a rating anywhere for anything for that matter! The course WAS ince a great track but is now a 1 out of 10 and a disgrace like I said. You are a fraud.

Enjoyed it

We were two groups of 3 and all really enjoyed the course. The quality and course layout is one of the best in the southern Florida region. There were some very unique holes. I would definitely recommend it.

Out of Town Foursome

Clubhouse staff was very accommodating. Full foursome needed rentals, staff had everything ready. From Hollywood Beach it was 15min away. Plenty of water to navigate, so bring enough extra balls. Cart girl was readily available and very friendly. Can't wait to play again

Could be a contender!

Course layout, ambiance and challenge are excellent. Tee boxes, fairways, bunkers should be in much better shape for this level course design. Pace of play should be managed better. After good paced front nines, somehow this place comes to a screeching halt as you advance each hole of the back nine. Rangers are out there but doesn’t appear they’re saying anything; Pro shop and starter staff are excellent.

Great layout but poor conditions. Greens are slower and most of them are in good shape, tee boxes and fairways need some work attention, could be a great course. Pace of play was slow at over 4 hours. Probably an ok value for the area and because of the layout I would play here again but feel like it could be better condition for the price, (our should be a little cheaper) the layout is interesting enough that it could demand a lot more $ if the conditions matched.

Great Course!!

This is the second time playing this course. We’re from Texas and played here a few years ago. Came back into town and had to play it again. The staff were super friendly, just like last time. We will continue to come here anytime we come into town. Little backed up but we linked with a group that made it fun.
