I just did a search on thevilliages.net just now and the pitch-n-put Marshview course has plenty of foursome spots available on Monday before 12noon, over 25. Whereas Loblolly has zilch.
Plans for the south are great but plans can change. Remember they had plans that included a square complete with entertainment. What happened to that?

The article indicates longer term, three more championship courses and six executive layouts.

There's plenty of motivation to build courses where golf view lots add) $250K+ to the cost of a new home.

Take a drive down Marshbend Trail and 470 to take a look, several are in construction now. Land cleared and work in progress as far as the eye can see.

You must of missed all the buzz about Middellton and Eastport with the huge Lifestyle Center surrounded by these new courses. The dirt is flying down there at a frantic pace of construction...
