Put the driver away...

Nice course in fair condition. Some greens were a little spotty but overall rolled well. Most greens are flat some greens 2 tiered so not much to read in terms of breaks.
Fairways and tee boxes in fair shape as well.
Bunkers - horrible (see below)
Played the west course - has some nice holes but you are not going to take the driver out often and I played the blue tees.
Staff not overly helpful - never saw a ranger and the halfway house (bathrooms) were locked with the vending machine not taking dollar bills.
If you are looking for an inexpensive course in fair shape that is not that busy - this is your spot.
FYI - don't hit out of the sand - filled with rocks - I thought I moved them all and damaged a club due to a large rock buried under my ball.

Good value

Played the seaside course as part of a golf weekend.
Course was in average condition -
Greens - good
Fairways - avg
Tee boxes - avg to poor
Rough -avg to poor
This is in comparison to other courses in the area. But the value for the money spent is good. We have various levels of golfers in our foursome so it was a more enjoyable course for the higher handicapped golfer. Will definitely go back because of the value and it is a fun course to play.

Loved it...

Great course - many tees for various levels of players.
Would highly recommend this course to anyone.
Course was in very good shape - especially for the time of year.
Will be back. One of my favorites on the OC/Del golf lineup.

A nice challenge

Beautiful course with many challenging tee shots. Greens and fairways were in great condition - a couple of tee boxes were a little worn for this early in the season. Only real negative was the greens were a little slow for this type of course - which is challenging. For those golfers that don't have a lot of carry off the tee they have forward tee boxes that will make the course enjoyable.
Course has a ton of water so accurate shots are a must.
Second time I have played and will return again.

YES

My favorite course to play in OC. Course in great shape with many tee box options for different levels of players.
Pricey but well worth the extra $. Can't beat the scenery when the shots are being blown all over the place!
I will be back....

For a first time golfer

I took my father who had not played in years and it was a perfect place for him to go.
The course itself is in terrible condition but it would be great for a beginner or family to attend. My father will be back as he is trying to get back into the game. Not recommended for anyone that plays regularly.

Nice course - would return

Positives - tee boxes and fairways in really good shape. Greens in good shape but very slow.
Negative - staff - no one to be found outside for a while and finally got some instructions. Greens slow. Pace of play was a little below average but no ranger to be found to help.
I will return because I enjoyed the course except for one hole (can't remember the #) Par 5 with no landing zone - one side of the fairway straight up a hill the other side straight down. Just felt like they tried to squeeze a hole in. Other than that - I enjoyed the layout very much.
Will return.

nice views - very nice course

Lived in the area for a long time and never played here until today.
Course was in good shape and pace of play was decent for a holiday weekend. Saw the ranger multiple times.
Negatives - for some reason even though the course was dry they were cart path only for the day which slowed the pace slightly.
Outside of seeing the ranger - the cart boys were no where to be found - dropped my clubs off, went to the proshop and paid came back out loaded my bags onto a cart waited and then finally someone came over to direct us.
Outside of the staff issues really enjoyed the course and will return. Course has many level changes but was fair and not many blind shots.
Greens were in very good shape but were not as fast as they could have been.

Very nice course -

Course was in very good conditions for this time of year - greens were not quite recovered from the aeration but rolled well.
Really enjoyed the course and will definitely return. Has a good amount of sand and water to really keep your attention on every shot.
Looking forward to coming back this summer.

Wow

Went in with no expectations - and loved the course. Course was in great condition for this time of year.
Played 27 holes with the replay rate of $15 for 9 and $20 for 18 - can't beat that. The multiple tees options are great as well.
Will definitely be back sometime this summer.
Loved the finishing hole. Outside staff was no overly helpful with information but that was the only negative part.

Overrated

Played the private course - got a very good rate through golfnow. Would never pay full rate or anything close to a full rate for this course - very disappointed because I read good things about it.
Very plain course and not in great condition even for this time of year but it didn't help that the greens were aerated and we were not informed.
Too many other courses in the area I would rather play - won't return.

Pleasantly surprised

Made a last minute tee time - due to such poor conditions at another local course (Bay Club). Was pleasantly surprised at the conditions of the course.
There were a couple "weathered" tee boxes and greens on the back nine - nothing too bad. The front nine was in very good condition. Pro shop and snack bar is limited and there was only one person there to run both but he was very friendly.
I would definitely put this course on my list of courses to play outside of the "big" name courses in the area. Good value for the price.

AWFUL!!

The conditions of the course were pathetic - no matter what you are paying. I played this course 2 years ago and it was in pretty good shape. I would not go back to this course for a $20 green fee.
Tee boxes were bear or just had some weeds growing on most of them. Many greens were spotty or even bear in spots.
Not sure what happened and there are too many other courses in the area for a much better value.

Nice course - a little over priced

Course was in good shape - greens excellent - some of the tee boxes were a little beat up. Overall I enjoyed the course - the layout was nothing spectacular but it was enjoyable to play (I am about a 10 handicap).
Price was a little high for a morning round in September - I would play it again for a reduced rate.
