You’ll be hard pressed to find a more scenic round of golf, there are some views that will stop you dead in your tracks just to take it all in. That helps ease the pain of a hefty price tag at least.

plantation's sister is a must play at least once. it doesn't quite have the dramatic jaw dropping views of the crown jewel itself but it's a fun and more approachable track nonetheless with some beautiful scenery at half the price.

Pretty straight forward layout that was slightly reworked - they had to close the old par 3 12th hole due to road construction and inserted a new par 3 between the old 1 & 2 - now 2 (par 5) plays from the forward tees so it’s quite short.

Great views, front nine is pretty fun but it runs through condos later on the back which makes it definitely not as fun!
