Fun Course

This club has made some improvements since I last played it about 10 years ago. The greens are in excellent condition, especially for this time of year. And they’re quick.

The layout is interesting and quite tricky, especially from the tee, where you sometimes need to fit it into fairways, either around or over trees. And the wind is a big factor, as it blows all the time.

I really enjoyed playing here. Staff are very welcoming and friendly. I highly recommend you play this course if you are in the area.

Excellent course, should play if in area.

Old school, tight layout, driving straight a premium, longer or 4 holes give more room, but par fives demand accuracy. Net/net exactly as advertised. Enjoy your day at the beach!

Overall great course

Loved this course since the first time I played it years ago. Greens had just been punched and dressed with sand so it was almost impossible to read putts and get a consistent speed. Other than that the course was in great shape as usual, would recommend playing here if you're in the area.

Tough course

Honestly, I would leave my driver at home if I played this course again. This course requires perfect ball placement and not the grip and rip mentality. Fairways are narrow and the wind was up today(which made it even more difficult). I used my 3wood and hybrids to keep the ball lower so the wind wouldn’t put it in the wrong fairway or in the water. All in all I will be back to beat my score(hopefully)
