These courses are not worth the drive or the attitudes they display to cash paying customers! The Villages' championship courses, with a priority (6 month) are looking better all the time.
always nice to get an opinion from someone whose been around long enough to really get a lay of the land.

Try playing up north right now...go ahead...make the trip...

Up north you pay $55 and that doesn't include a cart...in the summer...head over to Disney and pay >$75/rnd...it is nice here in summer without all the complainers...

In the summer we pay <$20/rnd/w/cart at continental...beer is $6/pitcher and tacos are $2ea. Sure we put up with the heat and humidity, but our muscles are looser and the complainers are back north...adults from up north are more than welcome here in winter...
