Seaview - The Pines Course
About
The lesser known of the two 18-hole courses at the Seaview is the Pines Course. It originally started as a nine-hole course but another nine-hole course was added later and the two courses were eventually combined to form the Pines Course. The course has a par of 71 and it is 6,731 yards from the back tees.
Seaview's Pine Course doesn't provide scenic views but it does offer a good game. Some even prefer the Pines course because of its quiet location behind the resort's hotel and also because of its more challenging features. The golf course has tight fairways lined with trees, medium-sized greens that are undulating, and strategically placed bunkers.

Golfer Reviews
Conditions
The overall layout of the course is decent however the tee box conditions were some of the worst I played. Between the uneven grass growth and sand filled divots, getting a comfortable tee and stance was difficult. The rough grass just left and right of the fairway was way too long and not long in the sense of challanging for ball striking but long in the sense of laziness which made the long par fours even longer for the older gentlemen I was with. The greens were a good speed but there are some irregularities in the breaking. Overall not a bad price but I would spend a little more to have a nicer round
Nice greens
Tee boxes on a few holes bare sand, the starter apologized before the round for this said they resodded them and it didn't take. Found the greens and fairways excellent especially after the dry weather and hot days of summer bare spots and crab grass off the fairways nice place nice pace of play
long tiring game
Waited on every hole and every shot. left after 14 holes
History & Tradition
I can't tell how greatful and admired was with this course and all the history that keeps on every corner! And I got Par in the 16 hole, the same one in where Sam Snead defeated Jim Turnesa to win the 1942 PGA Championship!
Great time
The History and quality is out standing. We played in about 31/2 hours meet some great people. Course was in great condition and greens in great shape. They made us feel welcome and service was great. Lunch was tasty and the service friendly. If you can play here you should ! Try and play after the LPG event on the bay course. The greens will be so fast you think you are putting on Glass.
This is normally one of my favorite courses
Played many times love this course; however, I was disappointed the last time I played (August 5, 2015) with the condition of the course. The tee-boxes were in terrible condition, fairways were burned out, and the greens were slow. I won't be back for awhile, hope that conditions improve. At this point, I wouldn't recommend playing here.
Seaview The Pines
This is a fantastic track- it is tight but fair need a strong to tee ball to attack this course. Lots of sand and bunkers well maintained. Check yardage blind shots and if off trouble is everywhere. Great value and much different than the Bay Course this is a stroll thru memory lane and days of Sam Snead at his best. A great example of S Jersey Pinelands. Rough is tough and thick but fairways are like carpet Enjoy
Nice to revisit the Pines
I have played the Pines course numerous times since the mid '70s. Back when it was a private course the conditioning was immaculate. I've played in the past when the conditions were bordering on lousy. The last few years it has been making a comeback. The most critical I can be of this current round is that the practice putting green was rolling much slower than out on the course. And unfortunately there was an outing (scramble) played earlier in the day which left many un-repaired divots, ball marks and unattended sand traps to be negotiated. Still, I'm happy to see the improvements of late and I'll definitely be back!
course was beat up
T boxes were in terrible shape, fairways were decent but in places patchy with no grass. Bunkers were hard and rocky, greens were ok, second cut of rough was unmanageable, overall not worth the 100$ green fee
Even better then the Bay Course
We have played the Bay Course several times in the past, but this is the first time that we played the Pines Course. The views may be better on the Bay Course but I think the tees and greens are far superior on the Pines. Will definitely play the Pines course again. The only complaint was that we booked a tee time for 8:40 but when we got to Seaview they had us down for 9 AM.
Great course, any level can play it!
The reviews scared me a little bit because experience golfers with low handicaps were calling this a difficult course. I didn't think that was the case at all. The fairways were wide enough, there wasn't a tremendous amount of traps and if you hit a good tee shot you always had a chance to hit it on or close to the green on your second or third shot. Now, if you are a slicer or you have a major hook then you will have a problem (but it has to be major!). The balls were easier to find in the woods than I expected and they were even easy to hit out. The only dislike was that the rough was, well, rough. Rougher than most courses I play. Really deep and almost necessary to hit a wedge out of. my recommendation is to layup vs. trying to be a hero and land it on the green. You will most likely be taking three or four whacks to get it out. Additionally, have a good crew with you to help you look for the ball as you will need it. Will definitely play this course again. Lastly, the course didn't play long at all!
Great course
The pines course at seaview is one of the must play courses in the south jersey area. Price was great.(thanks to my golfnow app) the pace of play was not my favorite tho. I have played here several times and and yesterday's round was on pace for about a 5 1/2 hr round. This not always the case and it will not keep me from coming back but I feel that should be an issue that needs to be addressed.
I will play this golf course over and over again!
For this time of the year this curse it in exelent condition, I can't wait to play it this summer. ..
challenging with the windy conditions
The course was in average shape - was expecting more. The price was high but the course was fun to play. The tree lines were full of leaves - so don't have any mis-hits or you can kiss your ball goodbye. Many - many sand traps.
Enjoyable round of golf on this pristine course
My friend and I played this course after not having played here for awhile....big mistake not to have played here sooner and more often. The course from greens to fairways was in excellent condition. The staff from the starter, cart persons, and rangers were very pleasant. We will definitely play this course more often. We thoroughly enjoyed our round. A must play for someone who has never played here before.
Pines Review
Pines Course was entertaining to play. Considered it a bit redundant with more than a handful of holes dogleg right. Greens were very healthy with true rolls, but somewhat furry. The rough was also healthy and punitive. Pace of play was brisk. I would recommend it as a solid course. reminded me of Saratoga State Park in Upstate NY.
CAN'T GO WRONG
I live local so my expectations are high. Point blank SEAVIEW ALWAYS DELIVERS...Best practice facility around. 2 courses ALWAYS IN GREAT SHAPE. Never have had a problem with pace of play. Treat yourself you wont be disappointed.
this course is very appealing.
Really good condition. Very playable. Fairways, greens and bunkers in very good condition. Only criticism I could find is the par 3 tee boxes were not level and abused.
Would recommend play to all.
