Disappointing

They had an outing that day and we were not informed about it. We had to play the same 9 twice.

Pearl is a Gem

Played for the 1st time and really enjoyed it even though the greens were recently sanded. Great views along the marsh. I will come back and play where there is no maintenance going on.

Pretty great

Played the Pearl for the first time. Good conditions, nice variety of holes. The course was empty, and as a single, got through 18 in <2.5hrs. I thought it was great. Will definitely stop by again!

Great Brunswick Cty Public Course

The Pearl is an enjoyable course to play. We teed off at 9am Friday morning. The starter maintained a good flow and the pace was a 4h round. Fairways were forgiving and greens in good condition, though slower than expected.

NW courses were great!

Firs time playing the Pearl and it was awesome! I’d strongly recommend to anyone on vacation who wants to play. Course was in great condition. Fairways were plush and the greens have filled in nice since they plugged them. The North course greens were tough- small and most of the pins were on a crown, so accuracy and being able to stop the ball was a must. West was nice too. Wish I would have played the East too. I would recommend playing 27 if time permits. Not crowded or backlogged for a Thursday afternoon.

Great layout and very good conditions

Played with my son and son in law. Other than a couple showers, it was a great day. Greens a little slow (imagine that at the beach) bunkers were well maintained, and a lot of water and sand hazards. Great test of golf.

Good course in beautiful nature

Course layout is challenging, condition was good (greens not fully recovered from aerifying). I liked especially that there are no houses along the course, so you can enjoy the nature

Fairways and greens in great shape.

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at The Pearl. The course was in tremendous shape throughout - the greens especially. The cart paths could use a little work - they’re quite bumpy in many places. But that was a minor inconvenience. We played on July 4, so the crowd was down. That also meant the drink cart and bar/grill closed early. But we understood - everyone deserves a holiday. Overall, we loved it and plan to go back.

The Pearl staff & conditions

Very disappointed from the start, dropped clubs, tried checking, waited & waited, I guess checking inventory was more important. Could not charge range balls on ticket with golf, had to pay cash?? People that were late for tee times still got put in ahead of us,, making out start delayed 20 minutes. Play was terribly slow, 3 groups on every hole.

Hey if you want a 5.5 hour round this is your place. Will never return.
