Beautiful Ocean-side course with Friendly Staff

The course has a moderately challenging layout with the scenic Atlantic ocean nearly in sight.

The extraordinarily friendly front desk staff added to joy of playing golf in a perfect weather with two great playmates whom I met in the course.

Nice old school course

The course is very mature with big old trees and water but the greens had been air raided and sanded and were very bumpy. The fairways were also in rough shape from lack of rain but the lay out itself is great.

Bad shape, but good customer service

This course is in rough shape. Tee boxes were mostly dirt, fairways are alright, but the greens were all sand from recent aerating and re-work. Honest opinion it isn’t worth the $30 to play. Very frustrating.

Fun first round

This was our first round of the year and we enjoyed the course, good value for the price. There had been extensive rain and flooding in the area, so cart path only. Staff did a great job cleaning up the course, there were large puddles we had to play around. We would go back again,

Top 3 courses in all of hampton roads!

I personally love this course! From someone who plays about four times a week, As far as conditions go it is one of the most maintained golf courses in the entire area. The course layout is fun, relatively simple, but there are some cool holes and every one of them is in the same shape as the last hole (well groomed/maintained). The course is pretty short. The staff are always friendly and their Clubhouse serves cold beer and hot food with hardly any wait time. I wish that they're putting green had less Decay on it and that there was a driving range but other than that it remains one of my most favorite courses in the area! 10 out of 10 would recommend.

Dirt Lot Avoid

The course is in horrible condition. All dead grass on every fairway and many places where it's just hard pan dirt. I will not play here again.
