Enjoyable

Thought that the Byrd Course was in the best shape we’ve seen in it quite a few years. We’ve been playing it quite a bit in the last several years.
Cart paths will bounce you around pretty bad. They are very rough and take away from an otherwise great experience.
We will certainly continue to play the Byrd Course, just wish at least some work would be done on the cart paths.

Course in great condition

Course was beautiful. Fairways were lush, tee boxes and greens well maintained. The only problem we had was a couple of groups of four that ignored proper golf etiquette. We were a group of three with an experienced group of four in front of us who played efficiently and should have been allowed to play through at least one of those two groups . The two groups in front of them were taking extra shots, slow play, etc. Marshall was called but never came out, so we all suffered as a domino effect. Many times we had to wait together, watching the other two groups lazily play as if they were the only groups on the course on this busy day.

Byrd Course

Quite enjoyed the Byrd course. Saw a couple of very large gators - wouldn’t want to get very close to them. I would love to go back to play again but for some reason the price increased by almost $20 a round / not sure if it’s worth the price increase. Did very much enjoy the course though
