Went to golf at Deer Island while in Florida visiting family. The course is very challenging but still a very nice course with wildlife everywhere. Saw many alligators and even saw a pair of raccoons scamper across the fairway on one of the holes. Clubhouse staff were great and offered up some freebies due to a couple of holes being worked on while we were there. Beer prices were great and the staff in the bar area after we finished golfing were outstanding and very friendly.
