I also played Heron. Surprised you didn't mention the #3 green, which is sloped back to front. I hit a nice t-shot about 12 feet left of the hole. My first putt just slid by the high side of the hole, and then proceeded to roll 25 feet down the hill toward the front right. My putt from there came up 3 inches short, then started rolling back down the hill. I intercepted it on the way back down for a 4. One guy's ball did stop by the hole, only because a piece of Spanish Moss had blown next to the hole as his putt approached. I'd never seen an unplayable green before in the Villages.
