Beautiful Course and Views

Course has wide fairways but the approach to the greens are elevated and many protected by bunkers. Greens were in excellent shape but a little slow. Think about moving forward on the tee boxes . Almost every hole required a fair amount of carry of the the tees.

It’s Time to Enjoy Kayak Point

Kayak has become a little ragged around the edges, but the course retains its awesome setting and layout. It drys up later in the summer, but it is great condition now.

Thanks for your comment we have been working hard on winter projects to include automated fairways and growing fairways a bit higher (1/4 of an inch higher) to keep the place greener this summer.

Good Course for the Money

I play this course every once awhile. Most of year the fairways are good, however in mid yo late summer the dry out considerably. The large greens reman beautiful, fast and true. The course just added two additional tee boxes on each hole, giving them a total of five. I liked the arrangement and it allowed me to select new ones that better fit my distance and skill level. The topography of the property required the course have a few quirky holes, which take away from the course, That said, for the money it's a fair value in a relaxed atmosphere.

Excellent Course for the Money.

Whidby Golf Clup is semi private course, and for the most part, is built and maintained at a level consistent with a private golf club. The layout, coupled with the design an adaquate hazards make this course challenging and yet fair. The. only negative I noted was the somewhat outdated and poor practice areas, especially the driving range. That said, this is still an above average place to enjoy golf.

Camaloch Good for the money

This is great course for the money. Greens are fast and fair, however the layout on the back nine is quirky,. The fairways are a little sketchy as to grass type and mowing.

Beautiful and Challenging

This course in well maintained and has a very challenging layout, making use of the natural wetlands in the area. I thought the water was somewhat overdone and a little oppressive at times. It dictates placement of your second shot on almost every hole, and often isn't visable when taking your second shot. Since there isn't a diagram of the course on the score card, purchasing a yardage book is a must. Asthically, the number of homes and their proximity to the course was a negative.

Very Dissapointing

This course once had a reputation as one of the best municipal courses in the country; and while the layout and natural beauty remain, little else has. Other than the greens, the golf course has been lost. The tee boxes don't have grass on them, the fairways are dried out and rock hard and covered with mogels. The majority of my shots were like hitting off of asphalt. Don't plan on returning until it gets the attention it needs

Thank you for your comments we have had some issues with our irrigation system to include a clog in our main intake line. I am happy to report that we brought some divers out yesterday and they removed 100 gallons of debris and cleared our main intake line. Our staff is out watering the course about 20 hours a day. With the cooler temps coming and the repair fixed we are greening up everyday and should be back to normal shortly. As is always the case please reach out to me via email anytime at steve.stensland@golfkayak.com
