Cost effective but crab grass needs to go

This is one of the best options in terms of cost and value in Virginia Beach. That said, the greens need work. Crab grass plagues most of the greens even after aeration. killing crab grass is actually an easy fix that needs to be done.

Good deal for decent municipal course

We had great weather on an uncrowned day.

Friendly staff. Cheap beer! Good BBQ sandwich at the turn.

Greens were not consistent and some had large bare spots.

Looking forward to playing again.

Some recent negative reviews about this course but I was really pleasantly surprised. Some of the greens are in rough shape but for the most part the course was in good condition for late summer. Layout was playable but had some challenging holes from the blue tees. No development anywhere around the course so just trees, water and nature to look at which I really enjoyed. Employees were friendly, 6 pack of beer was reasonably priced. 4:15 minute round on a holiday weekend 12 minutes from our hotel for $25 hot rate, seriously wants not to like? I’ll definitely be back.

Slow play

It was my birthday, wanted to go play 18. Ran into slow play with a 4some in front of me. Would not let me play through. I left at after the 9th hole. Asked for a rain check for 9 and was told no, because I paid on line. Nice course but the slow play is a turn off.

Would like a rain check for 9 holes.

Very disappointing on my birthday!

Thank you

They have lost half of the greens. Two fairways had swamp areas. Very disappointing. I will not play that course again.

Paid full price - poor condition

Course was in poor condition, the greens were recently aerated and it was like playing in a sand trap on the greens. I’m okay doing that if I don’t pay full price but the staff did not agree. Besides the greens the course as a whole just was not that good of quality. I wouldn’t pay more than $1 per hole for a course like that.
