Much Improved

I've been playing this course off and on since Tiger Woods opened it after the reconstruction in 2003. The course was amazing then but the course conditions and greens had slowly declined to previous conditions. However, since Andy Giles has taken over as the club professional in early 2015, the course has improved tremendously and the greens are returning to their splendor of 2003. At the current pace, I expect Andy will turn this course into country club conditions within a couple more years. A short but challenging golf course.

OV Regular

Love playing this course because it’s fun and quick. The staff is very friendly except for one really old man in the pro shop who almost immediately ruins your day upon check in with his negative attitude about EVERYTHING under the sun. OV Golf Course could be considered a “good ole boys” course, but once you get passed all the stupidity of check in and out on the course, it’s a fun time.

Good value for money

The pace of play was somewhat slow, and the course conditions were fair. However, the staff was more than great, and around was a great value for the money.

Beautiful Day at Oceanview

Ocean View is a fun course to play. The weather was great and the greens were in good condition. Pace of play is usually slow at Ocean View...today was no different.
Made reservations online...good price...no hassle check-in, getting cart, or starting front nine.

Worth the green fees

It's obvious that management takes pride in this course. Right now they are refilling bunkers and adding new sod in warn areas. Drainage is very good at this course and honestly, the staff couldn't be friendlier.

signage needs work

Staff was very friendly,. We got lost several times and after aiming at the wrong fairway once too many times we just quit. There is signage, but a lot of times it points the wrong way, or toward the wrong tees.
