Fast greens for sure

Having played here for nearly 40 years, I must give an A+ to the Super and the Staff. Friendliness always a given, and this round no different. Rough was a penalty, fairways great shape, and putting surface excellent. Wind on this day was not friendly, but we all had a great time.

Hail to Robert Trent Jones

I understand ownership changes and maybe nodding to the past has become blasé, yet, shout out to Robert Trent Jones Sr. for the 1966 layout. Don't miss a green, up and down is no easy task. When the design was laid out 54 years ago, I'm guessing they knew the difficulty they were constructing. Conditions were Good, greens were rolling and fun speed.

Friendly staff, course conditions good. Some fairways were being aerated but not a real inconvenience. The Greens were super, really well kept. Pin placements were devious.

Oh that Donald Ross

Seaview Bay is a great layout. The fairways were so good that we hardly had to lift clean and place. Putting was challenging, the aeration was still effecting, you know, like a Chinese Checker board. The par 3 tee boxes were closed and the temporary tees diminished the holes. Hey, its mid January, I get it. Always friendly staff, cant wait to return.

Ramblewood Charm Continues

Having played this course since the early 80's, still a pleasure to see the consistent care and upkeep. Changes in ownership haven't affected the charm and challenge. Some new faces in the ProShop are friendly and a pleasure to speak with. Still soggy, cart path only was not a real burden. Look forward to returning on those long summer days, and play all 27.

Winter Golf in South Jersey

Twisted Dune is always a challenge, but with Mother Nature pushing a cold winter breeze and grass that has lost its color, the course can be even more challenging. Cart path only warranted, due to the previous days rain, not much roll out, so you can get your exercise too. Understanding the fairways deserve respect and kudos to the management for caring for the greater good. Excellent experience and professional environment. Good luck on 16, a very cool par three demanding accuracy.

Undulating Greens

Mays Landing remains a fun place to play. Greens challenge your skill to read the subtle variations at hand. Course was in decent condition for early March. I need to update my GPS, as a couple holes were not close to accurate yardage. The layout changes over the last couple years make 17 and 18 a true test in a match. After play concludes, the Restaurant and Bar are up to the task. Clean and updated, with nice draft selections and friendly faces.

Another great day at Sea Oaks

Greens were in process of aeration, small holes, and yet, they were so good that they were still the best green I've putted on this year. This is a great course, if you haven't played here you need to book, you will not be dissatisfied. We played on a Tuesday noon, and the course was wide open, staff to help at bagdrop, starter, cartgirl Lauren, staff all friendly and available. Thank You Sea Oaks.

excellent from the back tees

Ive played the course 2-3 times a year for the last 5 years. Currently the conditions are really good. Its not a long course, offering the opportunity for seniors and beginners to enjoy. Still, there is enough challenge for the experienced player. The smaller greens require accuracy, but offer safe zones if missed. The par threes (6) range from wedge to fairway wood distance, and all have their own unique views. Friendly folks, and a tasty 19th hole.

Honoring the donald Ross design of 90 years

I couldn't resist choosing Hollywood Beach as one of my picks for the week in the Fort Lauderdale area.
Actually, it was my first day down from South Jersey, and I had a really nice time. Paired up with two very nice local gentlemen, very helpful for landing short of trouble. Staff was freindly and the Ranger worked hard to keep the flow going when things slowed down. Conditions were average, this course was not plush. Yet, knowing the history of the layout and the fact that it is 90 years old, really made the round nostalgic and special. Even with an up pin, 13 into the wind was classic. If you have a love of golf history, put Hollywood Beach on your list.

Course is in the best shape Ive seen all season

Valleybrook has long been a local convenience. Current management has enhanced the atmosphere on and off the course. Warmth in the facility from the setting and the barkeeps. But lets face it, none of that is possible without good golf conditions. Greens are consistent and roll true, and although Ive seen them faster, I like the condition. Fairways and tee boxes spawn no complaints, and I always see guys working to improve. Keep it up. Ive been there three times in the last five weeks.

Very surprized by the great conditions

Having played a few years back, I was impressed by the improvements and excellent conditions. I played on a weekday, mid day, and found the course to be quite active, yet, never delayed. I thoroughly enjoyed the effort made by the maintenance staff, course looks great, looking to return soon. I rated the condition Pristine, because its better than Maintained. This is a municipal course and it may not have the private course funding, so its a Pristine muni.

Excellent rebound on the greens condition

Having played Freeway for years, I know what to expect from the layout. Hard to score on the front, easier on the back. Freeway puts out a Hot Deal that cant be beat, check it out. In just 4 weeks, the staff was able to revive the negative effects of all the early season rain and the heatwave, that made the greens spotty and almost lost. But to my surprise, the conditions are excellent now, bit slow, but plush and level, and devoid of dry patches entirely.
The rough can be penalizing, its maintained mostly my Mother Nature.

Always beautiful day at Harbor Pines

Course was in great shape, almost gave it a Pristine rating. Staff was very nice, watched them care for the members, above and beyond. Wish I was join there. Layout is not hard, we played white tee boxes, and the tee shots were never demanding. Quiet course, nice carts, friendly cart girl, moderate priced refreshments. I'll be back soon.

Course still Wintered

Red to White, nice day. Moist conditions, but very playable. Greens not green yet, hard to read. The course was still hibernating. Yet, you can see how once it comes back to life, it will be good, as you would expect from Ramblewoods history.
I had great lies in the fairway, no complaints at all.

White tee day due to the wind, 2-3 clubs on some holes. Really super course conditions, had a great day. Make sure to notice where the scorecard depicts water. Some real challenging holes, but ample driving zones.

It was cloudy, misty, and chilly. Glad I had an extra layer. The dampness and the recent greens maintenance prevented putting from saving the day, no true roll with all the tracking on the ball. But as a first timer, I liked the layout, hole 11 in particular.

Quiet woodsy relaxation

Dont book a round of golf on your Anniversary.

Course was in good shape, ongoing fall aeration in a couple fairways, but not too inconvenient.
