We picked this course since it was on out way to Ocean City and I wanted to play somewhere that wouldn't be too hard for my wife. The layout is very interesting, with the front 9 pretty traditional. The back 9 however is where things get interesting. Some really short par 4s which make you play strategic, as well as reachable par5s . Overall we loved the course, driver stayed in the bag most of the round and I got a lot of practice with my new hybrid. The staff was amazing and friendly. We had a such a good time, we stopped by and played again on our return trip!

Played here for the first time yesterday. There's been tons of rain so the course had areas where it's still damp, but completely playable. The layout felt very much like a links course, fescue all around if you don't hit it straight. But not so bad that you need to be perfect. The staff was so friendly, my wife had a bad round but they cheered her on and raved about her score and swing (they was her tee off on the 1st). Definitely coming back to try it again when the conditions are more dry.

They had an outing where every hole garbage cans stuffed with beer cans. Some greens had 5-6 guys on them goofing off. Balls normally fly from other holes on to your fairway, but I saw my first today where somehow 3 folks from 3 different holes hit on to ours.

What normally is a 3-3.5hr round here turned into 5.5hrs. However, we made the best of it. Just wished they would have alerted us about the outing and maybe pushed us onto different courses away from them (Middle Island consists of 3 separate 9 hole courses).

The course conditions were better than I expected based on other reviews. The greens were rolling fast and aside from 2-3 holes had very few pitch marks. The layout is great, lots of doglegs that require long irons and woods instead of driver for the bombers. Unfortunately, slow play bogged us down and we had to confront the group behind us more than once since they tee’d off a few times while we were waiting on the group ahead of us. Ii’ll definitely come back though as I do enjoy the course.

Great course and layout. Even in mid October, the course conditions are amazing. Greens roll fast and true, the rangers get the pace moving. Will aim to play here often next year.

Played there on the last Sunday in Sept. Was warned beforehand that the course was being aerated so we were prepared and expecting the worst. However, the course is still in pretty good condition for this time of year. Most of the greens ran well (though some still had sand). We had Dog to Spruce, which IMO is the best of the 3 9-hole courses here and the pace was great The last hole on Spruce is a great one to end the day on....open fairway to an elevated sloping green.

Course was overall pretty good. Greens we ok, a little beat up but that seems to be the case with a lot of course this year...nobody is repairing their divots!! This place is made up of 3 separate 9 hole courses. Dog is a mix of long and wide holes, Spruce is wide open with some water in play and elevated greens. Oak (my back nine this round) is the longest of the 3 and plays tighter. Also more hilly. In summary, had a great time out, always even my rounds here
