Its amazing one day people slam the villages for closing TDS and The Oaks to replace the greens and to do work. The next day they slam the villages for poor conditions. AND yes the cost is less off campus, BUT it is not always better. I played Harbor Hills 3 weeks ago, AWFUL! The staff were overly nice. but the course was VERY VERY bad. We, the golfers here need to understand that are conditions are caused by several factors. Lack of water and the amount of play. We complain when the courses are closed for maintenance or complain when they aerate the fairways and green. We can not have it both ways. Also the prices and conditions are SOMETIMES better off campus because they do not get the amount of play the Village’s courses get. There were over 3 million rounds of golf played in the Villages last year. And the last time I checked the Twilght golf deal after 5 is better then anywhere esle. I am not saying it is perfect here or anyone should not state the obvious when the conditions are not up to stantards But, ranting and raving is not the way, GET on the review committes, become active.
