Party Round

Unfortunately, our round @ Knob Hill was interrupted by a loud party going on all day at the pool club. You could hear the music & announcements on every hole! The course has a nice layout & challenging holes. I think management needs to speak with their members about fixing ball marks on the greens. Their were many unfixed ball marks on every green! I have played the course once per year and this was the first time I can remember these conditions existing. Staff is very friendly & pace of play was good.

Needs work

I was very disappointed with the conditions @ Spring Meadpw. I last played there in 2021. All of the tee boxes were bare & sloped. The greens still had airation holes & sand residue on them. The fairways had a lot of bare spots. I think the management needs to sink some money into the course. The back nine has an excellent layout so the course is interesting to play. Almost all of the cart paths have big holes & many bumps & need to be repaired. For $60, I expect better conditions…

Wide Fairways

Royce Brook has extremely wide fairways, but the ruff is thick & tall. The layout is interesting & challenging. My one complaint was the condition of the bunkers. There was very little sand in the traps making it difficult to play out of them. Greens rolled true with good speed.

Unfair Pin Placements

The course was in decent shape. The tee boxes were a little ruff. The greens rolled true, but the pin placements were very unfair. The pins were barely on the green & placed on slopes.A lot of the sand traps were light on sand. The course does have an interesting layout & for the price is a good value on golf now.

Interesting Layout

Although I really enjoyed my round on the west course @ Roycebrook, I was disappointed by the conditions of many bunkers on the course. There was very little sand with mostly hard clay making it very difficult to play the bunkers. Other than the bunker conditions, the course was in excellent condition. The greens rolled fast & very true while the tee boxes & fairways were plush. It is very difficult to find yardage markers on the course.

Ridiculous Greens

Although I enjoyed the layout of this course, the greens were so severely sloped it made it impossible to putt. On numerous occasions, my first putt would miss the hole & should have stopped a few feet past the hole, but the slope would take the ball about 15 ft further! Also, My approach iron shots would not hold on these hard sloped greens. Overall, these issues I just listed ruined my golf experience. I would recommend playing this course unless you do not care about your score. The view is terrific throughout the round.

Interesting Layout

Enjoyed the layout @ Colts Neck very much. Had a few par 3 holes over water & nice combination of varied distance par 4 & 5 holes. The sand traps were in good condition around the greens. Unfortunately, the greens had been recently air aided so it was difficult to putt. I got a great rate on golf now which made it worth the trip.

Needs Lots of Work

Atlantis Golf Course is in terrible condition. The tee boxes were mostly bare & rarely would you land on grass if your ball found the fairway! The entire back nine was recently air raided with your putts bouncing all the way to the hole thru heavy sand. I wish management would put money into this course since the layout is very interesting & challenging. As a senior, I got a great rate on the weekend, but still not worth the drive...

Interesting layout

I enjoyed playing Peddie Golf Club for the first time. The course has a very interesting layout with multiple distance par 3’s & long challenging par 5’s. Fairways were in excellent condition, but a few of the greens had some disease & were bumpy. The course is very walkable, but they do not offer a reduced rate for walking. Felt the price was a little high for that reason. They did not have any snack bar open & there was no water on course so you need to bring your own.

Soggy conditions

I have played Blue Heron in the past under much better conditions. Unfortunately, the recent storm left the course in extremely soggy condition. All the sand traps were filled with water & I lost 3 golf balls in the deep water filled traps! The fairways were extremely soft & many balls plugged or got zero roll making the course play very long. Due to wet conditions, golf was cart path only making for a long round of golf. The layout of this course is excellent and the greens rolled very true. I feel that management should have offered a discount for the less than ideal conditions.

Problematic Greens

The greens seem to have been affected by some sort of fungus @ Spring Meadow. There were bare spots & many areas where the ball would bounce on its way to the hole making it difficult to putt. The layout of this course is very interesting with elevation changes & interesting doglegs. The blue tees play @ around 6,200 yards which is a nice challenge for the weekend golfer. I think the course should offer a slight discount for the terrible conditions of the greens.

Interesting Layout

I very much enjoyed my round @ Cream Ridge. There were some interesting dogleg holes & changes in distance from short to long par fours. The greens were in great shape & offered challenging putts. I was quite disappointed with the tee shot on the 18th hole. There is so much overgrown bushes that block your tee shot. You can not see the fairway & with large trees lining the left side & very high overgrown bush straight ahead, your tee shot is totally obstructed. The hole is designed well with water running along the right side & a nice dogleg requires 3 shots to the green. The overgrown bush in front of the teeing area needs to cut down allowing for a tee shot down the left side of the fairway.

Excellent Fall Golf

Eagle Ridge was in excellent condition for a great Fall round of golf! The tee boxes were in the best condition I have seen this season. I like variety & have played 16 different courses this year. The fairways were plush & the greens rolled true. The Links nine has some spectacular views & offers some unique challenging holes. I would recommend any golfer to get in a round here before the east coast golf season ends.

Tricky layout

I have played 20 courses this season. I enjoyed the layout of this track. You do not need a driver on many holes. You need to place your ball in the correct position to have a good shot @ the green. I was disappointed in the condition of the tee boxes, very little grass on many. The greens rolled true & pin placements were fair. I enjoyed the course & would return with better course knowledge. Shot an 87, I am a 16 handicap.

Interesting Layout

Played the pines & links nines. Course has an interesting layout with multiple elevation changes. Really like the Links layout. Very scenic challenging holes. The fairways & greens were in excellent condition. The sand traps were consistent. Pace of play was very good as my threesome played in 4 hrs. Overall, it was a very enjoyable round of golf! It will be a shame if this golf course gets sold & used to build housing!!

Interesting Layout

The course has an interesting layout with challenging holes. I have not played there in a while & was disappointed in the course conditions. Many tee boxes were bare & there were a lot of sparse areas on the fairways. The greens were slow & did not roll like the practice green. Pace of play was very good as we played in 4 hr 10min. Overall, it was a pleasant golfing experience!

55bigdog,

THANK YOU for taking the time to leave feedback. I appreciate all of your comments, in regard to your overall Sea Oaks golf experience. The golf course is "bruised" in some areas, but will return to form quickly with the upcoming weather forecast. Thanks again and we hope to have you back soon!

Quirky Course

Great value for the money. Course has some quirky holes including double tree in the middle of a fairway, blind shot to a 20 yd raised green & extreme dogleg hole making three quarters of a circle to the par 5 green! Conditions of fairways & greens were better than average. Overall pace of play was adequate. An enjoyable day on the links...

Multiple Elevation Changes

Course has multiple elevation changes . You will rarely have a flat lie. The fairways are mainly thin & hard. Greens are in good shape & run fast with some sharp breaks. Course needs to have more yardage markers. I believe the course is over priced unless you get a hot deal from Golf Now.

Interesting track

Vineyard National has a nice layout with generous fairways. The greens are large with some difficult pin locations & sharp breaks. The sand traps are desperately in need of additional sand! Overall, an interesting, enjoyable round of golf. Need to play in the pm to get price rate reduction.
