Unexpectedly wonderful

I was staying at hotel and originally was told as a non member we could not play until 10:30 am. Called back later and after realising it was off season they let us play at 8 am. Played Tiburon day before and aa dissappointrd with that this course was surprisingly awesome, greens were beautiful, fairways were great, one guy had rentals which were old TM r 7 , he had better rental at Tiburon but liked Laplaya better. Could not stay to eat as our conference started at 1 pm . We played in 4 hours. Range was grass even had range finder on it. Loved our experience, would play again.

Expectations not met

After seeing this course on TV several times my expectations were high, but in person it looked awful, the greens were patchy and discolored, found out the next day it was a fungus. I arranged for our foursome and was embarrassed to say the least. Saving grace was we did not pay full price as my dad hooked us with a reciprocal off season rate. Consensus was if we paid $250 we would have asked for our money back. Golf shop and restaurant were closed when we finished at 6:30. Fairways are crowned you have to be in center or you roll into " hard pan of crushed shells" this scratched clubs

A hidden gem

Played on a Thursday afternoon as a single, teed off at 3:20. No one on course finished in 2.5 hours. (before dark). Great course, lots of elevation changes. greens rolled true, zoysia fairway. Wish I lived closer. I was last one on course and at end even though it was closed the staff managed to get me a Gatorade. (Chrissy I think) Great course you will not be disappointed.

Interesting Layout

Very friendly staff, very undulated course, no flat holes. some fairways need work. greens were aerated 2 weeks before we played. Two suggestions 1.get a yardage book there are no maps on the tee , no GPS, . 2. bug spray or wear long pants the bugs bite. We played on a tuesday afternoon took 4 hr 45 min. 5 Holes and par 3's are cart path only. Would love to play again in the fall when leaves are changing. We actually called the pro shop on the third tee and they drove us out a yardage book. great service. restaurant closed at 7 so we missed the food and beverage.

Nice but not $125 nice

When you pay over $100 for a round you have certain exceptions, like a grass driving range, GPS , cooler on the cart. Staff that knows the course, rangers that actually do something. We had to wait for 2 groups on 16 tee. Asked the ranger what pace of play was and he said well all the groups are playing a good pace. Really... 10 minute tee times we should not be waiting on almost every tee. 4 hours 50 minutes . $4 for a gatorade.. kinda steep. The putting green was the nicest green of all. Best thing was ranger going around with ice cold towels. I would never pay that fee again. Would do twilight rate.

Favorite in Ocean City area

Expensive if you play outside an outing. Great shape, mix of long and short holes. Shared green on 2 and 3. Staff is awesome. Grass range nice practice area. Always try to play when in OC. Best value is after noon when price drops.

Overpriced

I was staying at the resort for a conference. Green fees were $105. Greens were recently aerated ( should have told us). No gps on carts, did include range balls. Beverage cart disappeared after 6 holes. Would rather play Waverly woods

getting better, long round

This course is close to my house , I do not play regularly due to the 5 hour rounds. Waiting on lots of tees on a sunday morning, I was given a free round as a gift, no one in shop mentioned they just aerated greens. I was given a 2 for1 coupon however. rough is thick, greens should be great in 10 days. I did birdie the TPC hole, so great day.

Hardest 6300 yard course I played.

This course is in magnificent condition. Greens are huge, undulating , speedy and true. Fairways are perfect. If you are off them by 2 feet your are in deep stuff. When calling in the staff said I could walk. I do not recommend that. after 6 holes I was in a cart.Some fariways are narrow. The Par 3's as a group are stunning. $95 is worth it. Thought it odd to pay extra for range balls (beat). range is grass. Practice area has trap. Shower facilities available. Overhead shower was awesome. Only complaint is the water coolers had mold in the spigot.

Looking much better

As a Walden community resident for 10 years, I can say this course is improving by leaps and bounds with the new management. All Traps have new sand, Big Fan on #6 green. Clubhouse remodeled. Brought in new Pro, adidas/TM clothing. Pace of play is usually 4 hours on weekend. Can walk if you like

Best in MD

Hands down best public course in MD. You can walk, ride, get a caddy. Conditions are phenomenal. greens are fast ,true but hold. Staff is best of any course I played. You can even get shoes shined and spikes changed. Frequent Player pass is a great deal
