Worth the trip

If in the area, Harbor Pines is a worthwhile challenge. Overall good condition with trim fairways, bunkers (lots!) well kept, and big, rolling well-kept greens. Holes mostly straight, can play long. Mid-summer Friday took 4:20, so not too bad.

Interesting Course

In area visiting family, first time playing here. Interesting layout with lots of hills, very wide fairways, doglegs. Pace very nice - 3:45. Staff great Negatives: greens recently aerated, with lots of sand on greens (not told of this, but I may have missed a sign in the pro shop), and fairways not really in great shape, trim/short, but lots of weeds. Overall, playing an unfamiliar course, a good day at a very decent price.

Nice Challenging Course

First time playing any course is always a challenge, and it’s especially challenging playing a course with a lot of hills and doglegs. But course management was pretty intuitive as to direction, except for blind streams, etc. So shot placement is important. Some holes tight, and others fairly wide. Big, rolling greens. And the greens only reason not 5 stars in all categories. Very hard greens, fast , and you can tell recent aeration.
Staff, especially starter, friendly and helpful. Overall, a worthwhile day on the course

Good Links Course

First time playing course, and found it in very good condition. Fairways great, greens true. Biggest problem is not knowing the course. Lots of blind shots, and undulating greens. And VERY WINDY today, so that did not help. As expected in a links course, lots of hills, no trees, so wind played a big part.

Good value for this time of year!

Anytime you can play in comfortable conditions this time of the year in then Northeast is a bonus. Course was in very good condition, with the only minor problem of wet conditions. Some muddy areas, but overall real good. And have to say that the greens were much faster than they were during the regular/summer season. Overall, a good day.

Nice Course to Play

Had not played this course in about 2 years. Course is somewhat challenging, with links style fescue lined holes (some, not all). Only problem really was the pace of play. Not too slow, but some waiting. Could see some novices on the course, but not near us. Overall fine day.
