Cherry Island is a great value and challenging course

Course and greens were in great shape. Practice putting green speed was same as course which is rare. Only problem, there was cart shortage which put all afternoon tee times behind schedule. Pace of play was a bit slow. 5:15 round is average for weekend. Would reccomend this course.

Short, but not easycourse

Course in good shape. Tee boxes were punched recently, fairways and greens in very good condition. Course knowledge a must as distance become less important than pinpoint accuracy. Most fairways are tight, so accuracy is a must; got to hit your intended ball flight and target distance. Greens are not very fast, though placing your ball on the correct level and side of the hole is important. Only other negative is the speed of play which was a bit slow. Would definitely recommend playing this. Ourse.

Fun! Interesting layout

First time on this course and the layout was a lot of fun to work around. Fairways could use a little help but it is also February. Greens were great and fast.
