...when two grandmasters of their craft sharpen their pencils at the table, things can only go well - the course is one of the best 100 in Florida!!!
Arnold Palmer (1929-2016) and Jack Nicklaus are among the Big Five as players and course designers.
Arnold Palmer was the first golf professional to win a million US$ in prize money. He has 20 victories on the PGA Tour to his name, and over 90 in total! He and his team have designed more than 300 golf courses, almost half of which appear in the best lists - amazing!!!
Jack Nicklaus was the second golfer after Gene Saranzen to win all major tournaments at least once - a total of 18 titles, a record that still stands today.
Together with his team and his sons, he has planned over 400 golf courses in 45 counties and 40 states - according to a recent list, there are supposed to be more than 450.
The protagonists are honored accordingly in the clubhouse.
A very spacious, expansive and very well maintained resort, the access raises expectations - we are not disappointed.
We disagree with drfritzmaier, the course deserves the full five stars!
Of course, there are courses that offer a little more visually, but the playing challenges alone - eight par 4s provide more than 400 yards back tees - speak for themselves.
There is a lot of space, the driver is in use almost all the time, but the headwind slowed us down.
The greens are mostly very well defended, have hit several green bunkers - are very playable.
The greens were the same, they required a lot of extra work - some of them were very tricky. We were also able to play some final pin positions - thank you!!!
The two signature holes of Palmer and Nicklaus are awesome!!!
What leaves little to be desired here is the course maintenance - very good, in many areas even excellent. Not to forget the practice area - top!!!
Very courteous staff, perfect service. The greenkeepers surprised us with their considerate work.
We had a lot of fun and great joy, unfortunately not about the scores...
All team members have played over a dozen Palmer and Nicklaus courses. This one has a special role...
The new rankings surprised us, the changes are astonishing...

Much better than Slammer and Squire! Very nice staff, at hole 1 and 10 free apples for food. Absolutely recommended!
