Good potential

Greens were not very good at all. Fairway was ok and the rough was practically dead pines. Tons of potential with increased grounds maintenance.

Sewell Point

Had a great time playing this course. The course itself was in okay shape. The greens were good overall and fairways/tee boxes were so-so due to the course still in winter hibernation. However, for $30 with a cart, I can't complain. The course is relatively flat and is pretty easy if you stay out of the trees. Therein lies the problem, every hole with the exception of 2 are tree lined. If I hit the fairway the I got par or better, if I hit it in the trees I got bogey or worse. I wish I had played this course early summer while in prime condition. Due to the fact that I played on a Monday and it was raining most of the day the course was barren. I ended up playing 27 holes, the front nine once and back nine twice. I shot 35/40/39 in about 3 and half hours. Recorded my 75 for the first 18.

Great Layout

First time playing course. Secured a hot deal and arrive red early. Pro shop staff were accommodating and let me tee off 45 minutes early. Donald Ross layout was outstanding and has held up to test of time. Greens were in great shape for mid February.. Would highly recommend.

Good course, flat terrain.

This was my first time playing a golf course outside of southern PA. I was utterly surprised by the flat terrain. The holes are differentiated by bunkers and water only. I miss the hills and natural terrain of southern PA. Awesome first experience on Bermuda grass though!
