Beautiful nature all around course. Course layout was challenging with plenty of variation. Greens and fairways could use some work.

Course

The course was in decent shape considering all the rain we had that week. The greens were in good shape, the fairways needed cut but the rain set them back in maintenance.

Outstanding greens

The greens are fast. They are Bermuda and still dormant so the grass is still brown colored. Once the temps warm up, the grass will green up. The staff are very friendly and accommodating.

The day we played the weather was great until we arrived at the 14th Tee box. The sky turned black and we fled to the parking lot. About 5 minutes later the bottom dropped out of the sky and it poured. Good for the fairways and greens, I'm sure...:-) Will be back again soon!

I recommend this course to anyone no matter what level of golf they play - from beginner to veteran.

The greens are Champiom Bremuda and stay dormant and brown until the temperature get to a constant 70 degrees,we play there all the time and there in great shape and really fast,So don't always believe what you read come see for yourself.

It's a fun muni course

You get what you pay for. It's a fun course that has some challenging holes. Chipping is pretty easy as there isn't really any rough. I felt like the greens were different speeds but maybe that's because I suck at putting. Not dying to play there again but worth a trip if you don't want something too expensive or if you have a buddy that lives in the area.

Play and enjoy

this is a course everyone should play. If you hit your ball straight you will enjoy a great second shot. The course plays with several dog legs left and right however you will like the layout.

Great day

We had 3 groups play at Suffolk today and found the course and staff to be very nice and accommodating,not real sure what the previous 2 reviews are all about from the same guy(you have to wonder why he was a single NO FRIENDS from bad attitude)we have played it so many times and will return again soon because John and the staff have been more than willing to help with our group anytime we have been there.Keep up the good customer service and course conditions.

Not Worth the Time Not Worth the Money

Horrible experience! First time and last time at the course. There are may well run municipal courses in Tidewater this is not one of them. No starter. Blown off by the assigned twosome. Offered to play as a play through single through a shot gun tournament. No golf etiquette. No southern etiquette poor customer service. Spend more play a better course!

Great day of golf.

Maybe my best golf now experience to date. All of the staff were friendly and professional but I must single out the nice lady behind the snack counter for providing warm friendly service at the turn. I was teamed with a golf now threesome and we started right on time. Dave , Nick and John were great guys and I really enjoyed the round with them. It's a fun layout with a mix of doglegs to the left and right, some fun par threes and most of the par fives where reachable birdie holes. There hasn't been much rain around here lately so the course was a little dry and the greens were firm, but it was still very playable and that added to the challenge a little. You will like this course and enjoy a lake view on a couple holes.

Course is in great shape

Our group hadn't played at Suffolk in about a month and we thought it was really nice the last time but the course is in such good shape you can play the ball down in the fairways,John the pro told us they have been fertilizing them every month and we must say they are nice,the greens were smooth and fast and the new cart paths make it really nice,Hats off to the maintenance crew and thanks John for making our round enjoyable as always

Nice for the price

The greens were still full of sand from maintenance...wasn't published prior to starting the round. The distances are very poorly marked. A rangefinder is highly recommended.

Playing better than any course in Tidewater.

Nothing but great things to say about all aspects of this course, staff and facilities. Playing better than all the other courses I have been playing in the area.....and I have played them all; municipal and private. Tee boxes, greens and fairways in spectacular shape. Pro shop and snack bar staff very friendly and practice facilities are adequate. Price to play 18 with cart more than reasonable. Challenging design that makes you think! Play this course now!!!?
