Seaview - The Bay Course

Greens in good condition. Few rough spots in fairways.

Great layout, pace of plat (under 4 hours) and fair price for Donald Ross gem.

Greens were perfect and views were spectacular. However, I am an 8 handicap golfer and I'd like to know golfers who enjoy playing on golf courses where if you miss a green by 1 yard or hit near a sand trap you end up in two foot tall grass. I lost four balls in high grasses that were less than 1 yard off the green.. If you look at the picture on the front of the Bay Course score card (old time golf photo) the high grass is no where to be seen. Cut the grass! It may look great in photos but it stinks to play.

Slow greens and slow play. Otherwise a good value.

From central mass. Exellent place to play, great pace 4 hours exactly. Easy scoring course if you don’t get in junk lol

Nice course. Very playable as long as you keep your ball in play. 4.5 hour round is the norm. Small, speedy greens. Rough was pretty long and penal. Fescue is basically an automatic stroke and it’s around most greens and fairways but course is short so if you keep the ball in play you can score. Played at discounted price of $49 on Golf Now. Wouldn’t play it for over $100.

We had a terrific round at Seaview today. The course was in great shape and we finished the round in four hours. The pace of play was fabulous for a public course. We did not wait on anyone, and we had no one pushing us. After the round we went inside to the Grill and had crabcakes sandwiches, which I would also recommend. We will definitely be back to play another round at Seaview!

Great course in very nice condition. Layout is nice with some awesome views. Watch for the fescue, it’s a ball eater. The pace of play was my only issue. The foursome in front of us was painfully slow. Finally on the 10th hole a ranger came out and said something to them ( they were 2 holes behind ). Told us to call clubhouse if they did not pickup pace. Called twice and no one answered the phone , left a message and never saw the ranger again. Hopefully this is not the standard

I had a group of 8 women out to play the Bay course and we had a terrific experience. The course was in great condition pace of play was right on schedule and our overall experience was really enjoyable. Thank your

Slow play, too expensive, poor cart path, poor tee boxes, and too many bugs.

Wouldn’t even consider paying $80 a round here.

Let’s just say I play a decent amount of golf but left this course extremely disappointed. Usually I’m in agreeance with reviews on golf advisor and typically do my due diligence, but this one stumped me.

Where to start...

$140 - for a round here is completely unacceptable.

The tee boxes - poor shape with divots, high grass, and off level footing everywhere. You won’t feel comfortable hitting one ball. Okay, maybe one..but that’s it.

The cart paths - poor, plain and simple. I locked up my back a couple times rolling into the never ending pothole country they call a path. I even noticed some gaping holes in the rough where I lost my footing. But it’s okay, that was just a reminder of the mistake I made booking this course.

The pace of play - disastrous (our starter assured us the members ahead were quick and under 4 hours). That was not the case.

The course - Awkwardly, it plays tight on the front with a few blind shots surrounded by fescue. Expect to lose at least 2/3 balls. If you shoot in the 90’s get ready to empty your bag. Even though my cheeks were a bit tight after the front, the back is a different story. A little more open and forgiving but still not up to the standards I expected.

Sprinklers - on one of our holes the sprinkler remained on so we were at a standstill for about 8 minutes so we just watched our box and fare-way get showered on while we melted in the sun.

BUGS - I battled bug bites more than I battled the track itself. I killed 3 bugs within 40 seconds and felt better about that more than my birdie putt.

Luckily, I shot a 37 on the back which gave me a little hope in liking this course. Unfortunately, the damage was done and I quickly realized I would never come back here. Ever.

If the price was $40 a round I MIGHT actually consider playing there again until the reflex instilled in my brain reacted and told me NO so I can actually enjoy myself and play either Twisted Dunes, Atlantic City, or Ballamor.

Fairway and green are in excellent shape. Ross is really hard to get out of. A lot of fescue. Awesome views of bay and Atlantic City.

First off this isn't just a golf course, it's a full service golf facility with an attached spa and hotel. We are never disappointed playing either course. The bay has better views, and a easier open layout while the pines is tighter and a bit more challenging (and has more bugs). This is a true resort experience and we always feel like we are getting the private upscale experience here without the commitment or investment. Dollar for dollar there isn't a better option.
