Brigantine/Clipper at Shipyard Golf Club

The course has 3 nines and all play about the same. Golfers need to hit the ball well to score - lots of forced carries and doglegs. The grass used for the greens does not grow in the winter; they dye the grass green and roll the greens daily, resulting in fast but true greens. The pace of play was just over 4 hours.

Fantastic staff!!!!! Everybody was very accommodating and friendly. The attendants were very helpful with knowledge of the greens, (super fast) pace of play and any other requests you may have. We played here back to back days and will definitely recommend playing here.

There isn’t a golf course on the island where you will be treated better than Shipyard. The staff members are so friendly, accommodating, and professional. The course is in excellent shape. I purchased a 2 month winter special through Heritage Golf. I have the choice of 6 courses with this package. I expect to play shipyard the most. In my opinion, you will not be disappointed playing this course….

This is a 27-hole layout with a decent range, chipping area, and putting green. Interesting layout including force carries, dog legs, and a good mixture of par 3, 4, and 5 holes. The pace of play was around 4 hours. Greens are interesting as grass goes dormant in the winter, dyed, and rolled making for fast putting.

I was visiting from out of state (New York) and decided to play a round. The staff was so welcoming and friendly from the moment I got there. Made me feel at ease. The course was in good shape for the time of year. Saw multiple gators throughout the course, which was a cool experience.

The staff at Shipyard Golf Club was amazing. Very friendly and helpful.

Course was fun to play!

Arrived 30 minutes ahead of my 9:16 tee time and was greeted warmly by the staff. Got set up, hit some balls, some putts and out to the course, Got an escort to the first hole of the Clipper (I played Clipper then Brigantine 9's) and chatted briefly with the starter (we are both originally from Massachusetts) before starting the round. I was initially worried how the greens would be since the practice green has recently been punched (tiny punches) but the greens on the course were in really good condition.

Played the blue tees since the rating matched closely with my home course. Some of the blue tees were pushed back to the gold lengths, which presented a few challenges I didn't expect, but it was a pleasant round. Played 18 holed in 2:30, nobody ahead of me or behind, only maintenance crews on a few holes.

Everyone there was friendly and in good spirits. The course was in great condition given the time of year. Tee boxes and fairways were very good, greens not too fast and rolling true. It was my first time playing but everything is in front of you so nothing tricky, just straight golf. I would definitely recommend it.
