The clubhouse is huge (80,000 SF) and sits on a hill that provides views rarely seen in Florida. This is an upscale residential development that opened just before the recession. There are not many homes on the course although building has recently resumed. The natural setting is very enjoyable to one living in an urban environment. We saw a flock of 15 wild turkey hens on the back nine. Complimentary range balls are included. The 19th hole has an outdoor deck with expansive view of the course. Good overall experience.

The change in elevation and contour of the greens make the course a challenge but it was worth every penny. The carts were a little dated, one of the other reviews talked about the cart paths being broken, but with old trees next to the cart paths, it's inevitable the roots will affect them eventually. We were there to play the course, not so much for the amenities. If you want to play a great layout, it's worth the money.

Returning to play on World Woods is something we enjoy whenever possible. Two beautiful public…read morecourses offer plenty of challenge for all golfers. The facility is well maintained with the exception of Club House. It has been voted many times in Top 100 course in US and Top 5 in Florida. There are two courses, Pine Barrens and Rolling Oaks with a short practice 9 holes. That is a total of 27 holes. There are many driving or practice area. You have no problem of finding a practice area. Ideally it is a nice place to take a 3-5 days' score improvement program here. For the two days we played, the greens are fast and undulating. The fairways are lush, fairly wide and ascetically pleasing with huge sand and or waste area. Yes, you can ground your club without problem here in the sand! The architecture of the course is simply impressive. Pine Barrens is my favorite of the two courses. Rolling Oaks was pretty good but not same level of difficulty. Although I did not lose a single ball for two days, you must play the "smart" shot and not to show off your swing skills. Be prepared to lower your expectation and move the tee forward! The staff are professional, accommodating in the Pro shop, Bag Drops and the restaurant. Rangers are friendly, monitoring the pace of play and not a distraction. Nevertheless, due to the large terrain, it took us 5 hours to finish the play! World Woods needs two improvements; Club House and GPS. Club House need improvement to provide better food for breakfast, lunch and possible dinner with more beer, wine and alcoholic beverage and some extensive hours. Now, the kitchen close at 3:00 PM! At best, it is a greasy spoon operation. If they have some hotel, lodging or resort amenities on site, this will become a top-notch or elite Golf Vacation Destination. Yes, GPS is extremely helpful to navigate through the challenging hills and trees. With some improvement, World Woods would be in league of Black Diamonds, Streamsong, Disney and PGA National. Woohoo! For a public course, it is a four and half stars! It is definitely a real gem and will return again and again!

Has sort of a North Carolina feel to it with all the tall pine trees. Pine Barrens is consistently ranked in the Top 100 courses in the US and Top 5 in Florida.

The clubhouse is modest but well stocked. The course was in excellent condition. Don't pass up a chance to play here. We were paired up with a club pro from Puerto Rico and his friend from Miami.
