Disappointed

Normally a great course to play, but slow play & sanded greens (which we were not informed of when making tee time) made for a not so good day. It was evident all day where the hold up was (2 groups in front of outs), but no marshal around to say anything to.

Perfect for family

Played yesterday with wife and another couple. This is the perfect course for that as there is almost no big hill and valley, water usually not in play. Ladies liked it, no loose balls. Will come back again.

Disrespectful Staff Member

I have played at Admiral Baker a few times and each time has been great except for my most recent experience. I have been playing golf almost my entire life and try to play at least twice a week. I have never been so disrespected by an employee during a round. We were about to tee off from the middle tees when the employee keeping the pace came up to us and told us, “You know there’s ladies tees up there.” Mind you we were right on pace right behind the next group and we hit further than most the men we see and play with. He had not even seen any of us play he just assumed we should be playing from the ladies tees. I politely told him that we do just fine from these tees and he responded with, “Doesn’t look like it.” We will not be returning to Admiral Baker where this employee will certainly not be reprimanded for his blatant sexism. Ladies beware! There are plenty other courses to take your business where you will not be disrespected and chastised because of your gender.

Good course. Bought the 3:20 pm tee time and only got in 9 holes due to carts being turned in at 6:15. Wish they would say that up front before setting up tee time.

Great course for the Value and some beautiful views

First time playing the north course was nice. We started late so we couldn't get the full 18 in but still had a good time. My only complaint would be that you cant reserve more than 6 days in advance so getting an early tee time is next to impossible

Admiral Baker North 03.05.2020

Considering I didn't play as well as I would have liked to, the course was in great shape. The greens were a little slower than the practice greens. The sand traps seemed a little inconsistent from one to another. The rough was a fair length and the tee boxes were in decent shape throughout the course. I truly like playing the north course over the south course due to the north being more challenging than the south. All in all it was a beautiful day to be on the course. I definitely recommend the Admiral Baker courses to local and visiting golfers? Cheers!!!
