New favorite course

To start off, the staff makes you feel like you’ve known them for years, extremely friendly. The course conditions were amazing for the price. Front 9 hilly with some challenges and back 9 wide open and flat with a nice view of the piankatank. Ill definitely be returning here.

Slow greens. Un fixed pitch marks on greens. Tees and fairways are nice.

Fun to play but greens inconsistent

It was relatively fun to play except the greens were consistently in-consistent. Some greens like a shaggy rug and other cut as expected but still rolled slow.

Challenging and Fair

I spend between a third to half the year on the Middle Peninsula. This is the best and friendliest course around. The head pro is great. The range is simple but well-cared for. I don't need anything special there. I really enjoy the course. The two nines are very different. I think the front plays harder. Several holes on the back play along the river, with views. I was really pleased with the conditions during my round. The staff has been doing a great job with the upkeep and improvements. Ill keep coming back.

My review

The course was fairly nice the greens were in good shape. However, the maintenance guy started turning on sprinklers without warning as we approach certain holes which was an inconvenience and a pace of play slow. They put a foursome in front of us in on the first hole the one guy hit four balls off the tea. Not worth the money

What a Gem!

What a gem of course with two completely different experiences! Front 9 is hills and valleys and simply beautiful in every way. Making it a challenge yet really fun time. Back nine is flat and completely different and changes your approach and game which makes it all a really unique and exciting place. We’re so thrilled to have discovered this! The staff and people are just beyond polite and helpful. What a great course! A must play!
