Terrific course and awesome scenery

First time playing on a recommendation from a friend. The weather had been heavy rain the day and evening before. It was only a mist when I tee’d off with another single as the first group out. He had played a fee times before and offered several tips throughout the round. The course was wet, but I was still able to play my ball down, which I think speaks volumes for the condition of the course. The greens, despite the wet conditions, were quick and true. The front nine winds along the top of the property, skirting the forests. The back nine has all the spectacular views. I will be back to play again on a nice sunny day!

Would play here again

The course was in great condition. Most holes are right in front of you, a few holes may have required some local knowledge for placing your tee shot. Greens were rolling nice and almost all the greens had some "character", that is, they all seemed to have plenty of breaking putts!

These greens are not flat!

Played in terrific weather. The course was in great shape and the greens where rolling well. As a first time player at this course, I didn't find there were too many "local knowledge" holes. Everything is pretty much right in front of you. Would certainly play here again.

Great course, would definitely play again

We were the first group off, so I can't judge pace of play since we played in just over 3 hours as a twosome in the same cart.
The course was in great shape and greens were rolling quick and true.
Didn't visit inside the clubhouse so I can't comment on that aspect.
I booked using GolfNow and had a "Hot Deal" which is why I had such a low rate. But I think they're regular rates are quite reasonable.
Would definitely play again if I am in the area.

Greens were nice and quick. Greens and fairways were in good shape, I didn't have a bad lie all round. Rough was still dormant so no problems when I missed a fairway. Would play here again.

Always a pleasure

I've played the North course previously and now I've played the South course. Both courses are always in great shape and perfect conditions. Will play here again when I get a chance.

Will play it again

The staff was extremely friendly. They have a driving range if you want to hit a few balls, and a nice putting green that matched the speed of the greens on the course. Fairly wide open fairways make it easier to hit your driver from almost every tee. Larger greens also help your greens in regulation stats, but you may be faced with some lengthy putts. I'll make an effort to play this course again when I'm in the area.

Great course, local knowledage would be helpful

Played this course in the first group out and we made a point to make sure the group behind us never saw us again after the first tee. Lots of dramatic elevation changes and doglegs. Would definitely play many of the holes differently after playing here for the first time. Lots of awesome views though. Would play here again on a future visit, probably trying out the Europe and Asia courses as well.

Great course, local knowledage would be helpful

Played early in the day, one of the first groups out. Course is pretty much in front of you. Lots of elevation changes requires some thought in your club selection. Also a few doglegs that I would have played differently after seeing them for the first time. Would definitely play again on another visit.

Must play

The course was in great shape. Loved the fast bent grass greens. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. They had a nice range and putting green right by the pro shop for warming up. A couple quirky holes required some local knowledge, but a really enjoyable round.

Play it if you get a chance

I got to play on a weekday mid-morning, the tee sheet was fairly open. The staff were very friendly. Played with two locals, one in particular was quite friendly and offered tips about playing the course. The course was in perfect condition, although the fairways were a little soft from a rainy winter. The greens were smooth and rolled true. The layout meanders up and down the rolling hills of the property so a majority of your lies will not be flat. They have a warm up area for putting as well as a range.

I got to play as a walk on at noon on a weekday. The staff were very friendly. I played with three locals and they were all very friendly and a pleasure to play with. The course was in perfect condition. The greens were a smooth and true. They have a warm up area and range. The greens fee included a cart, but it's cart paths only, so walking is the only way to go.

Play it if you get a chance

I got to play first thing on a weekday morning. The staff were very friendly and offered tips about playing the course. The course was in perfect condition. The greens were a little slick but rolled true. They have a warm up area for chipping and putting but no range. If you have time, stop by Oceanview Driving Range over on nearby Kelly Ave before arriving at the course. The greens fee included a cart and I wanted to play another 18 that afternoon so I rode, but the course is very walkable.
