Patriots Point is a decent little course with several challenging holes, especially #17 & #18 where the wind can really make life difficult. The views on the final few holes are very nice as well.

Course: The course is pretty well kept. Greens are in very nice condition and rolled well. Not a lot of break in them, even when there appears to be, so putting can be a challenge if you're off your game. The downside to this course? The fairways. On some holes they are ok, on many, they are the bumpiest pieces of land I have experienced outside of my Jeep.

This is a "links" course as it is described, but the hills on the fairway are small, and only a foot or two apart, which makes for an extremely unpleasant ride out to your ball in the fairway. A few times I thought the cart was going to fall apart.

Pace of play: Pace was a tad slow on the front 9, and no real issue on the back. Finished in a little over 4 hours as a twosome. Had to wait on a 4-5 holes, but not long.

Staff/Clubhouse: Clubhouse is nothing special, but gets the job done. Staff was friendly and accommodating.

In the end, I would play this course again if someone asked me to, otherwise I would probably choose another course in the area that would not make me lose my lunch while gleefully riding to my ball in the middle of main street.
