#9, looking toward green. All fairways are like this. Photo submitted by hometeamfla on 04/09/2017
They can never seem to get their greens right. Always have sand or seed all over them. Poor pace of play. Would rather drive a little more and play much better courses in Ocala.
Needs improvement (badly)
Greens were below average. Noticeable weeds on the greens.
Fairways were average. Some areas need repair
Rough were below average. No distinction between rough and parts of fairway.
Tee boxes (orange) were average. Not many people play from the tips.
Practice greens were terrible. Very sandy due to repair from washout.
Carts were below average, holes in seats. Etc…
Florida Golf in December
Enjoyed the course. Played 18 in 2hours and 56 minutes. Course was in good shape. Greens were very fast and someone made the person cutting the holes angry. Pin placements were TOUGH.
The Staff was outstanding. Definitely would play there again.

Fun
Great course. Exactly what you’d expect for the price and it being a muni. Fun layout. Fair and forgiving, but with the opportunity to make some tough shots. Overall fun loop. Green we’re in rough shape and drainage seems to be an issue on some fairways.. But those negatives minimally affected play. The course was fully booked so I expected a nightmarishly long round. To my surprise, once we got off the first tee we finished in 3:40. Not bad!!! Worthwhile to play this course if you are in Gainesville.
We appreciate your detailed review and feedback on our golf course. We apologize for any negative experience you may have had regarding the condition of the greens and drainage in some areas. Thank you for taking the time to leave your review and we hope to see you back on the course soon.
Rain
The staff is great, course would be 5's if it would rain some in Florida.
Water all over course, maybe use some
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate your feedback and apologize for any inconvenience caused by the lack of rain in Florida. We will consider your suggestion to use additional water on the course.

Disappointed
Booked a later tee time for individual round and quickly came up on 4some that refused to let me play through. Therefore dark approached after playing 6 holes of an 18 hole rd that I paid for and usually would have finished with time to spare. The course was in good shape but I only was able to see a third of the holes and have no desire to get only partially what I paid for. Would love to see entire course and see staff keep check on players on course and keep pace of play enjoyable for all.
We apologize for the inconvenience you experienced during your round. We appreciate your feedback and will work on ensuring a better pace of play and monitoring player behavior on the course. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

Good layout - - physical condition was poor
It is amazing that Parks and Recreation don't budget and invest more money into the maintenance of this golf course. This course could be a joy to play. The layout is good. Tee boxes and greens were in poor condition. Bunkers not raked in the morning before the first tee times. Won't be back.

Had an excellent time

Hello, gator8669. Thank you for visiting us at Ironwood Golf Course. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Love the layout, maintenance is lacking
I'd heard the conditions at Ironwood had improved earlier this year, so I decided to give it another try. Unfortunately there was evidence of a lot of deferred maintenance. Several broken irrigation pipes had created creeks in fairways and wet conditions on at least one tee box. Weeds had grown up around posts and signage. Greens were spotty and inconsistent, like some hadn't been mowed or rolled in days. Even the driving range was overgrown, like a cow field. I suspect staffing has been an issue since rumors about the City of Gainesville closing Ironwood began circulating, so the course is in decline as a result. It's a shame.
We apologize for the negative experience you had at Ironwood. We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review and we will take your feedback into consideration to improve our course conditions. Thank you for giving us another try and we hope to create a better experience for you in the future.
Poor Greens
Greens were in fair to poor condition. Golfnow should have warned golfers of aeration of greens.

Great if you have 6 hours to golf.
Im a frequent golfer here but the last two times have been awful. There are high school golfers walking all over the course. I don’t mind it at all, but it would be nice to know that ahead of time. It took me over 2 1/2 hours to play the front 9. The greens are in good shape, course has some nice hole design. I just can’t go there and play anymore because of the ridiculously slow pace of play.

Ironwood
Course is in much better shape than previously. Still needs some attention on the greens and mowing the rough down a bit. Otherwise, not too bad…
