Nice Short Course

It’s a short course. One long par 4, four short par 4’s and four par 3’s. It’s a fun resort course,

So pace of play was a little slow. The golf cart with towels was nice. The practice facilities were nice (no mats). I liked that they posted the yardage at the tee box as pictured. Tee to green everything was fine. If l had one issue about the course it would be the (at best) medium paced greens. And they were a little soft, almost spongy. Off course, l got done around 4:30, and the pub didn’t open until 5… All in all l would return if l needed to get a quick nine in.

Excellent course, resort feel

We played 18 in under 3.5 hours on a Saturday afternoon. Course was in excellent shape, not long but hit a few drivers. The staff is first class, as a 9-hole course, the turn can add back-ups, but not a problem for us. Great value

Not Long, but Strategic

The staff couldn’t have been nicer. The course was in excellent shape and overall not a long course, you had to play your ball well to stay away from the many hazards. The pace of play was great until, on the back 9, we came upon a 4 some who thought they were the only people playing on the course. They were taking turns on every shot and playing VERY SLOW...so slow, that over the course of 3 holes there were 4 groups sitting at the tee box of the 17th tee waiting to tee off. I was second in line or I would have approached the group and said something. Overall, it was a great time playing a great course.

Excellent resort course

The good news is that the course is challenging and well maintained for a shorter course(no par 5s').The bad news is that it is only 9 holes which makes for a logjam at the turn. The course is part of a Marriott Vacation Club resort, and tends to attract average golfers at best. The holes alternate par 4/par 3 , but can be challenging.Greens and fairways are excellent. 18 holes can be played under 3 hrs and if you have a backup at the first tee, go to the Grille for great food and a beverage .

I will return soon.

Nice 9 hole course

My wife and I enjoyed this course for the first time yesterday. It has a fun layout and if you play different tees on the 2nd time around, it makes it feel like a different course. Course condition was good and pace of play average. Unfortunately, the weather cut our round short, but we will be back.

Report course

The course itself was in excellent condition. But the pace of play was very low at the turn. This is a 9 hole resort course & it shows. Booked for 18 he's & only play 11 because we get to the 12 the tee & 3 groups on the tee box. Wasntwilling to wait 20 minutes for the box to clear. Ridiculous.

slow play bogged down an otherwise enjoyable day of golf.

We went out as a twosome behind a 3 some, waited every shot for the first 8 holes. They finished play after 9 holes and we continued play...breezed thru the next 6 holes and caught up with a twosome on the 7th hole. One person from the twosome fished for golf balls and searched the fringes for balls. On # nine after finishing the hole, they continued to sit left of the green for a couple minutes, moved forward about 20 yards and exited the cart to look in the rough for golf balls. We don't mind people gingerly moving about on the golf course or searching for balls, as long as they wave the group behind them thru.

Great Monday morning

The course was in great condition except for some VERY wet fairways from all the recent rain.

Met some wonderful guys on the first tee and had an enjoyable round.

The course was much more challenging than I thought it was going to be with water in play on may of the holes.
