love it .... BUGS

I have played this course many times over the last 15 years. great course, staff, grille and bar. The only problem the last two times are the horrible amount of no see ums or whatever they are near the practice tees and chipping green.These things bite and hurt and then two days later they itch like crazy and stay very red for a week. There has to be something they can use to stop them. I hope I remember to spray up next time. BUG SPRAY recommended....

Beautiful day!

Love getting out to this course whenever I can. Greens, although punched recently (within the last month), seemed receptive to approach shots and were consistent in speed and break throughout the entire round. Only found one trap while playing, on the first hole, and it was maintained perfect. Can’t say enough about the course. Even got to witness a fight between folks on the 18th hole; put a nice little bow on the whole day! But that’s a story for another day. Enjoy your round at Shell Landing!!

Super slow players

They allow groups of 5 and they stack on top of each other, so if you play as a single or double you’re easily playing a 5-6 hour round.

Vacation

I loved this course. I Played from the back tees and found it very challenging.
It played 700 yards longer than my home course.
The greens were fast which I like. Got out of position a few times and paid the price.
The overcast weather on an 88-degree day made it seem cooler than it was.
Missed a 7-foot par putt to finish the round with an 80.
I highly recommend this course if you are in the area.

I called to check course conditions / weather, guy talked for couple minutes, but never mentioned there was a tournament.
We had to wait on every hole, and everyone seemed to move as slow as possible.
