Just needs some TLC

Played Babe for the first time yesterday and got paired with two really nice guys. The shop attendant/ starter was really great… the course had some really clever routings, just had some very thin fairways.., probably could use some rain… otherwise the course and the outting was fun and I would do it again… would have given a “ 1/2” to the 3 and it surely could be a 4 with some thicker fairways…. Thx for a fun day…

Missing Big Course features

Right out of the gate, realized some things were missing. Very little ‘staging area’ signage. No one in bag drop area to answer questions like… where is the range? Will a starter meet me/ pair me up … no starter ever!?! Never saw a single ranger… didn’t see the cart girl until we were on 16…!Pro shop was ( apparently) closed at 5 when we finished!?… wanted to get a shirt or hat… never saw a ball washer… home construction area was very distracting, I realize it’s unavoidable, but might be worth a $10+-
Consideration.?? Nowhere to get anything “ at the turn”??
Loved the greens. I guess it’s supply and demand that gets you >$100.. but I was mildly disappointed. I sponsored the Lady Keystone in Hershey in the 90’s.

Long Time favorite

It's been a long time since I'd played Old South but it was a worthwhile wait. I remembered every hole and enjoyed sharing the course with a very long time friend....
The course was in great shape, we were first out (love that) and the outside and inside course representatives were engaging and very friendly.
I'll definitely be back in a much shorter time than this lapse....thanks Old South...

Long time ….

Hadn’t played Port Royal in quite a long time… and still remembered most of the holes. Had a great time, played on pace and we’re paired with a lovely Canadian couple… would play again when I can. Thx Port. Royal staff, inside and out!!!

Forgot the fun

Had not played Oakland in several years… and had forgotten how much fun … and “ challenging” the course is. Also, had a great interaction with the pro shop staff… good guys.
Won’t wait so long to get back to Oakland!!!

Fun Day at Jensen Beach GC

Have used the range several times but played the course today for the first time. It was fun, the greens were fast and true. It is an interesting layout I am anxious to play again.
Good job at Jensen Beach Golf Course....

Solid " in your face" golf course.

I have played this course many times since the third day it was open in 19i0, a despite many rerouted due to the skiing operations, the course has maintained its character. The 140 slope from the blue tees is well-earned, and the conditions yesterday, especially the greens, were remarkable.
Its sister course, Lodestone, gets the #2 Maryland ranking, but Fantasy Valley ( I still call it WISP) is a worthy 'partner'.
Can't wait to play both courses on a "play both for $99" special.

Stolen Day

It was just too nice a day to pass on golf, so a great " trip" to Golfnow paid off with a great price. While it was crowded, everyone was courteous and we did get around in just over four hours. The course was in very good shape, especially the greens.
Perhaps because this course is so close to home, I often don't think about the Wetlands right away.
After a very friendly reception by Robert,,the starter and Jack of all trades, I got paired up with three good guys. We hit it off pretty well right away and had fun all round
At 75 degrees, and a brilliant blue sky, it was a great "stolen" day when the season was seemingly " winding down" .
I would highly recommend giving The Wetlands serious consideration when looking for a r reasonable course in the Aberdeen / Havre de Grace,Md. Area.

Long time, no play

Had not played the Seaside course at Ocean City golf and yacht club, and was pleasantly surprised at all aspects of the course. It is not a difficult course, but the conditions were excellent, the staff was friendly, and it was a nice experience. Also, it helped that we were paired with two very nice guys who were good players.
Hope to get back to the Newport course there, but had a great time at Seaside.

Even in winter, it's great

Have played Baywood several times, and while usually a bit overpriced, it is a great venue. Got an unusually nice December day, got paired with a nice gentleman and got around in four hours, yeah. In the peak season, 5 is the norm. Have been to Augusta several times, and 'in season', Baywood Greens is even more beautiful than Augusta. Not the Amen Corner of azaleas, but more, and varied.
I would put Baywoods up against most courses "you can play" , just have found it to be a bit snotty, and overpriced. Wish they would give a break, perhaps just two or three times a season, to us locals. However, I do love Baywood.

Surprise December day

Any day playing golf in December in Maryland is a major PLUS, but to play a great course, for $25...all the stars were aligned! Played in just a golf shirt, until the cold front blew in...but 14 holes was better than sitting with a Yoohoo and a Twinkee inside.
I had played man o'War once before, and it is a great course. Nice variety of holes, interesting routing, reminiscent of the Carolina's' best ...anxious to get back in the spring to play both Riddle Farm courses, and Rum Point...the Ruark tri-fecta my wife gave me for Christmas!

Bayside Resort Golf Course, Selbyville, De.

I have played this course several times before, and love it. At the golfnow rate, it's a top ten ever deal. Got paired with a "local" who was a hoot...lots of laughs. Bonus day of late October just made it even greater. Thanks for the wonderful Bayside experience!
