Thank you so much for your feedback and for playing Ocean Pines Golf Club. We're so glad you enjoyed your round on our Robert Trent Jones-designed course! Due to some substantial rain, our maintenance crew was unable to complete its normal mowing because it was too wet, which might help explain the condition of the rough when you played. We're in great condition going into the fall, however, and hope that if you're in the area this season you'll stop by for another round!

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback and for playing Ocean Pines Golf Club. Please know that some heavy rain impacted our ability to mow when you played, which is why some of the areas were not cut as they would be normally. Our maintenance team does do regular trimming, so we hope you'll give us another try. Fall is a great time to golf in Ocean Pines, so please play a round with us soon!

Alright value.

Tee boxes were decent depending on where you were teeing off. Fairways and green are nice. Greens were soft and rolled true. Pace of play, however, was slow. We had to wait a free every shot which was hard to get into the rhythm but overall experience was ok.

Good and bad, some ugly

The course layout is superb, the condition is not good. In fact the worst I've played in Md this summer. I'm a resident (summer months) of Ocean Pines. Extremely disappointed with the condition. I'm an 80 yo vet with a 9 handicap. In fact, you folks at Tee Time might consider a visit; I guarantee your reaction would be similar to mine. In fact I attempted to call at the end of 6 holes, only to find out you have no phone reimbursement policy. It was a waste of money. In fact my son choose not to play the last 7 holes, I did take some pictures. No computer competency.lol

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback and for playing Ocean Pines Golf Club. Please know that your round was played shortly after aeration, so the course was still recovering from that process. In addition, we had just experienced a good bit of rain, which caused some wet conditions. We're so sorry to hear that your experience was disappointing and hope you'll give us another try. The course is in great shape going into the fall and is more typically what you'll experience when you play here. If you have any additional feedback, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at golf@oceanpinesgolf.org. Thank you.

Superintendent needs to step it up on course improvements

Fairways were found to be inconsistent in grass growth as well as large bare spots across most fairways. Had to lay winter rules in fairway. Greens were aerated and sanded so putting is a challenge. Interesting being so close to the ocean that sand traps were hard and little sand. Excellent driving range and putting green. Management needs to invest in fairway /tee area upgrade to be more enjoyable. A Trent design course is demanding for straight shots down the fairway. So much potential

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback and for playing Ocean Pines Golf Club. You are correct that the course was aerated just a couple of days before you played, so it was still recovering from that process. We do know that there were a couple of hotspots from the end of the summer, but those areas have been addressed and the course is looking great going into the fall. We do hope that you'll give our Robert Trent Jones layout another try the next time you're in the area!

Thank you so much for sharing your review and for playing Ocean Pines Golf Club. We're glad you enjoyed our Robert Trent Jones-designed course but are sorry a beverage cart wasn't available when you played. Unfortunately, we were short-staffed at the end of summer, but have worked to resolve that issue. We hope it didn't impact your enjoyment of your round too much and that you'll come back and play with us again soon!

nothing memorable but nothing awful

I replay my round later in the evening in my head...I had trouble remembering this one and no alcohol was involved. The course is just bland. The holes are very similar...Most are tall pines left and right, mostly doglegs left it seemed all with raised greens to help water drainage (so add yardage most holes)..but most greens are raised but flat without too much slope. One STUPID hole with two trees in the middle of the fairway, I guess that's been debated and cursed many times (and yes I birdied it). The condition was fine, greens slow (but it had rained hard night before). The course just needed a "spa day"..could use some cleanup, some color, a few potholes here and there, something more than just green and pine would help...the bunkers were tough, but that's the rain and no raking...the greens were not too bad with divot marks...the range is wide, nice grass tees, and plenty of space, the clubhouse is new and deck/bar are fine (my hotdog was overcooked but a great steamed bun)...there's water on a few holes but nothing awful...most hazards are easy to see..it's flat, would be easy to walk...the challenge is staying out of the trees or being smart and punch out...play to the edges of the doglegs...little advantage to cutting corners....think 3 woods off tees, keep it in play and have fun on this course

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback with us, and for playing Ocean Pines Golf Club. Our course definitely earns the "Pines" in its name, which you clearly encountered during your round! We do think our Robert Trent Jones, Sr. course offers a challenging yet fair layout - and definitely showcases Jones' use of bunkering. We're glad you had fun and hope you'll join us for another round soon!

Good Value

Friendly staff. Course is decent condition. Greens a little slow with too many ball marks which is typical of a public course. Had been tracking towards a 5 hour round until Group let us play through. Price for early morning start was reasonable for mid summer.

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback and for playing Ocean Pines Golf Club. Because our course is so spread out, our standard pace of play is around 4 1/2 hours, so it's definitely possible that it would take a bit longer on a busy day. We're sorry if the pace lessened your enjoyment of your round and hope you enjoyed the course, even if it took a bit longer to get through. We truly appreciate your patronage and hope you'll give us another try the next time you're in the area!
