Do NOT waste your money!

This was the worst golf course. The reason the round was so fast was due to it being completely empty. Others already aware of the poor shape this course is in. The greens are covered in mowed weeds and the fairways are baron with mostly dirt patches. The sand traps had rocks bigger than my hands. I would strongly suggest if you want to waste money, go shopping at one of the few ABC markets. You’ll get more in return for the money you spend. While this course was $145, not sure I would have paid over $25. Will never return.

Not worth your money

The views of the ocean are negligible, the fairways are dry, the tee boxes beat up and the greens are horrendously patchy with weeds and grass. The carts are old and the clubhouse is the same. The staff were friendly but 150 per player for a visitor for that is outrageous!

Equivalent to taking your money and lighting it on fire.

Ocean views? Forget about it…you will see it from a distance. Might as well pull out your binoculars while you at it. These people charged me 70
Dollars for some garbage callaway clubs. Do your self a favor, save your money or play somewhere else. Course is wide and easy to play though. I just can’t believe I was charged 70 dollars for rental clubs. Lol. 70 dollars!!! I wouldn’t play this course even if it’s on a hot deal again. Only “championship” about this course is that it has the word championship.

Great layout

Was once a great course
It has fallen into a course that needs a lot of attention
Looks old and run down
Needs a serious amount of time and money to bring it up to par

Don't waste your money

As you can read the staff at this course is very good and friendly but that's where it ends.

Starting with the driving range they don't even provide tees for the mats and want you to buy one!

One the course you'll find bare fairways and rough and greens that putt like shag carpet. Long putts almost require a shoulder turn to reach the hole. The greens have a good coverage of Bermuda grass but need to be cut lower for a smoother roll..

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!
