Play the Course

Played the course on midday Labor Day and finished in just under 4 hours! Great pace of play. Tee times are spaced out either 10-12 minutes as opposed to other courses that rush everyone to the first tee. Practice putting green was quick. Greens are the North/East course were consistent but not as quick as putting green. Course is in very good shape considering the lack of rain. Play the course and you should enjoy it.

Great course

The conditions were so so, I have seen better at Compass Pointe. The tee boxes were ok and for the most part, the fairways were perfect in most spots and there were some areas where you could see they were doing some work. Greens were better than average but overall good enough to stay on line.

Comfortable golf round.

Went out for a round of relaxing golf and got that. 4 hour round despite a packed course. Excellent conditions. Good greens. So worth it. Only negative is the absence of water stations especially with the immense heat.

Great rate for a great course

First time playing here, really enjoyed the course and the layout. They had just finished hosting a tournament the week prior and had some fairway replacement in progress. Not enough to detract from play. We got a great rate from Golf Now app for a 3:36 tee time and the only issue was the timing put us at hole 18 looking straight in to the sun. Still hit the best shot of the day on a dogleg left. Thank you!

Maryland Trip

Course was showing signs of stress from recent hot weather. Lots of ball marks and it looked like nobody was rakiing bunkers or fixing ball marks. Could your a course Marshall or two. Nice course for sure.

Great course, poor experience

Staff failed to tell us we were staring on Hole 10 that day. Wasted time driving to Hole 1 which put us under pressure to tee off with folks now waiting.

Gave us the wrong score card so we couldn’t reference the hole stats during play. Besides the staff member who was asleep at the wheel, it’s a well maintained and challenging course.
