Perfect weather, course was playable even after the last few months of cold winter weather, some very challenging holes/shots, would come back.

Winter golf conditions

I bit ragged even for winter golf. Fairways and greens in need of repair.

Conditions have really deteriorated compared to several years ago.

Rather disappointing because this is a great routing, but the conditions really drag it down.

Snails pace

Started out as a twosome caught up to twosome in front of us on the seventh hole and after that waited on every shot on every hole at one point, there were five groups on one hole, namely, the 10th. called the pro shop. They sent somebody out there, but nothing was accomplished. Took five hours to play around a golf and it was frustrating as all he’ll. never again.

One of the best

This course was laid out perfectly. It was extremely comparable to courses that I played in north and South Carolina and even in Arizona the greens were in excellent shape given this time of the year and the course played beautifully. This is going to be one course that I will definitely play again.

Excellent Experience

I usually play this course in the Spring and Fall due to price and it is less crowded. I was thoroughly impressed by the course. The course was manicured and meticulously landscaped. The tees, fairways and greens are in perfect condition. This is the top public course in Ocean County. The best attribute is the layout. No parallel fairways so each hole is not shared with other less accomplished golfers. The design is challenging for both a novice and experienced golfer. I walked the course and there is plenty of shade in the fairways which made the experience even better on a warmer day. I recommend this course and encourage more golfers to walk a course like LBI National.

Very interesting course with complex holes and in good condition

Played for the first time here. Was an interesting course layout that offered a good challenge while not being overwhelming. There are some spots which could be improved for conditions, but paying GolfNow rates, it was wonderful.

Not Worth the Money Currently

I would be extremely upset if I paid full price to pay this course (booked a hot deal) because almost every single hole had terrible bare spots on both the fairways and greens. The greens were atrocious and consistently bounced even with good rolls because you would constantly put through divots and bare spots. I don’t get how they hiked up the green fees from a few years ago and now the course is in a worse condition

The course is back to quality playing conditions.

I played LBI over the summer and was looking a little beat up with the summer weather. Played again Monday and it's back to what I'm used to. Will be back.

It’s time to recognize the staff at LBI National for being the best I’ve ever seen

It is clear that management makes a significant effort to hire and train their staff. The courtesy, friendliness and effort to serve their clientele is evident across the board. As an example, I remember when Eric who works the bag drop was first hired many months ago and you could see right from the beginning that was the right kind of person. Now, after becoming one of the regular cart guys when I play there he has grown to do all of the little things that make my golf experience more enjoyable. The cart bag loop is always through the slot and not covering one of my zippered pockets. There is always ice in the cart cooler. I mentioned one time that my grips needed to be cleaned and when I came back he had taken care of that too. Of course the clubs are always cleaned properly and he uses the brush his partner Kyle lobbied for to even be sure the iron grooves are clean. You don’t get that kind of service at most courses. There is no quick wipe of the irons without the head covers coming off the woods at LBI National with these guys.
