Where's the sand?

Too bad group that runs this course doesn't care much. Bunkers have been bad for years, but now they are unplayable! No sand in any (I played Gold/Red) and most filled with rocks. Tee boxes also poor, fill of divots.
On the plus side fairways, rough and greens were good.

Golf at Meadows

The course is a pretty good value. The greens were in very good condition. The fairways and rough, not as much. The pace of play on this day was excellent. I'm not sure if the smoke from the Canadian wildfires had an effect on this. Visibility was greatly restricted, but not the course's fault.

Needs new management

I have played this course for many years. It is a shame what it has become. Bunkers full of water, with no rain for a few days and no sand.
Round took over 5 hours and never saw a ranger, but they had at least 4 starters! There were at least 4 holes open in front of the group holding everything up. That was as far as we could see.
It was absolute torture, not one time could we get to a tee and hit. When we got to the 10th tee, there was a group on the green (the one holding everyone up), one in the fairway and 2 waiting on the tee.

OK, but conditions could be better

The course is near to Ocean City and convenient to reach. The conditions were spotty. Many places appeared to have different types of grasses. As it is connected to a college, maybe they test grass varieties, but not a lush course. The layout is tricky for first timers, as many tee shots require you to know distances to water hazards and some had posted distances, but not accurate.
Overall a good value.

Improved

The course is much improved. I avoided this course for a few years due to conditions, but new owners have greatly improved the conditions. Fairways still a bit thin, especially on steeply side-sloped holes, where balls run off even on well aimed shots. Crabgrass was rampant last time I played here - now gone.

Crabgrass everywhere

The course layout is fairly good, but the conditions were not. Crabgrass is everywhere! Most greens are in good condition, but that is the only part of the course that is. Bunkers were virtually unrecognizable, mostly dirt, grass and, you guessed it, crabgrass!

Course was excellent. The only minor issue was the greens, they were a little bumpy. This affected short putts, sometimes dramatically.
