Tough course

We had played The Pearl once before but didn't remembeer how very difficult a cours it is. Hazards on nearly every hole and fast greens with no flat surfaces. Most greens are highest in the middle and slope down in nearly every direction so they are tough to stick the ball on them and tough to avoid three-putts. The cart paths very much need to be repaved. No bathroom on the East course. Staff were very friendly and gave some useful tips at the start of the round.

Nice course but NOT women friendly

Signed up as a single with a three some. When I arrived, the starter was very nice but then asked me to play alone. iIdeclined since I am a women Golfer with a 10 handicap and enjoy playing and can play with others. Additionally the tee sheet was full so I did not want to have to wait on every shot all day as a single. He then scrambled to figure out who to put me with. Ended up not at my tee time with 2 other women that clearly were not who I had signed up to play with. The course was beautiful and in good condition. But it was a shame that I was not paired properly.

The fairways were burnt on the East course. The greens were good but a little bit slow. Some really picturesque holes especially on the river. The staff are awesome but the overall condition of the course made this a tough rating for me.

Pace and tee box’s

Pace of play was not good . There was a group that was playing from the tips and should have been at the senior men’s tees.
Fairways and greens were in good shape but the tee box’s were pretty beat up.
