Definitely not enough value for the money. It’s a great course for $35, too bad they charge twice that. Fairways were ok, greens really slow, and rough is basically crabgrass. They should consider lowering their rates.

Greens were recently aerated, so a little sandy/slow, but otherwise, this place is in superb condition. Better hit your ball straight on the front 9! Tight and watery. Opens up a little on the back, but still some tricky holes. I’m a 90s golfer and did not get frustrated at it, but I did donate half a dozen balls to the course...all in all, loved it!

Pretty terrible conditions. Course is worth about $20-25, but they charge twice that. Instead of hiring better/more greenskeeping staff, they decided to buy a fleet of GPS nanny carts that, due to the tight layout between green and next tee, force you to back up all the time cause they aren’t programmed correctly.

The greens were terrible. Recently aerated, but looks like if they had rolled them they could have been far less bumpy. Some greens have huge bare patches, and the speed from hole to hole was wildly inconsistent. If you want to charge that much money, the greens HAVE to be good. I can hit an iron off of a crummy fairway, but putting on bad greens is just annoying.

The staff are friendly, and I love the layout otherwise it would be a 1-star considering they charge residents $40. Pretty absurd. I can play courses in Hilton Head that are twice as nice for that price.

Do better, Bacon Park, or lower your rates if you want to continue being a crummy course. I might try again in 6 months, but this round left an awful taste in my mouth.

Definitely a place-your-ball sort of course. Choose your shot wisely, especially on the front-9, where I wound up with 7 penalties. I enjoyed it though, and the staff were nice. Would definitely play here again.

This course was better than when I last played it a few years ago. The bunkers have been refreshed with some softer sand. The greens were super fast in comparison to other public courses in the area. Pace of play was great, probably because we snuck in right after a tournament finished (I recall people tend to struggle to a 5-hour round here).
