Overall
Olive

Homestead has two very different 9's. The front is regulation and can challenge a long ball while the back is much shorter and demands accuracy. I find it interesting the previous reviewer feels "real golfers" go elsewhere, considering they are packed through the weekend with multiple leagues every night of the week. Very unique experience, recently added drive carts and sure to challenge weekend warriors and "real golfers" alike.
