3/5/2012 -We played in the rain and the greens were still fast. We'll be back. Posted by Michael (Hannibal, MO)

2/23/2012 - We love the diversity of the holes ,not straight up and down like most courses. We would play it again in a heartbeat. Posted by Al (Elizabethtown, ON CANADA)

4/2/2010 - We had not played there in 15 years. Read that they put a lot of money in fixing up the course. It was in good shape. They treated us well. Posted by Carlos (Avon Park, FL)

3/18/2010 - The greens lived up to their reviews. The rest of the course was ok. Posted by Steve (Powell, OH)

2/11/2010 - Nice greens, friendly, nice pace. Would recommend.
Posted by Monte (Butler, KY)

9/25/2008 - A nice course. It was in relatively good shape and was fun to play. Posted by Robert (Greensboro, GA).

3/21/2008 - Well the course has just been taken over by new management and conditions were not quite up to the usual standards. Given time I would think this course will recover.
Posted by Greg (Sterling Hts, MI).

2/28/2008 - The Claw has some memorable holes but could use some TLC. Old style Bermuda greens were slow but we got accustomed quickly. The entire facility is a little run down looking. The staff in the grill was excellent. We replayed 9 holes for $8 so we appreciated that. We were not disappointed; we got what we expected. Posted by Roger (Simpsonville, SC).

2/28/2008 - Nothing spectacular about the course, but it plays very fair with a variety of challenges. Posted by Doug (Coloma, MI).

2/27/2008 - Fun course. Quality was good for the price. Posted by Larry (Omaha, NE)

This course is long and demanding with one of the highest slope ratings for a public course in the Tampa area. It was cut out of a swamp that still frequently comes into play. Many of the greens are elevated, and some natural wildlife is visible on the course.
