Greens were in great shape for this time of year. Course is challenging and fun to play. Bunkers weren't groomed very well but for the most part we had a good round

Great day at Island Point

Was on short vacation to PF and wanted to play a little golf on a beautiful 80 degree day. Have play her before and knew it was a good and challenging course. Zoyzia fairways were good and greens rolled true with medium speed. Some repairs were going on in couple fairways, but other than that, courses was really good. Pace of play was good considering the 80 degree day in November. Would re comend playing here.

Fall golf

It was a late fall day, light wind and 75 degrees. The course was in above average fall shape and the greens were rolling well. We played the white tees at 6200 yds ish and I felt the fairways were fair and reachable at my 230 ish avg. The course winds down to a river and it is pretty. The par 3 with the forced carry over the river is awesome. If you are in the area, it is a good place to play, challenging but fair. I played with my Air Force buddy so that made it even better….

Bad pace of play

Tee time started 15 min late and there was a fivesome two groups ahead of us that took forever. We had to end the round early because we were running late. Slowest I’ve seen in a while

Awesome

I played the course a couple years ago and it was rough. Never thought I would go back. I was really impressed on the changes. Course is beautiful! Bunkers could use some work but all in all the course is in great shape.
