Not worth the Money

Course is fine, but not worth the money. In addition to the hot weather taking a toll on the course’s overall condition, the course is not being cared for properly. The bunkers are horrendous with weeds, mud, pebbles, etc. Embarrassing. Tee boxes are a joke. I am finding a lot of these so-called great courses down here in south Jersey are now just average due to neglect. The demand to play is there, so I suppose there is less incentive to maintain the courses to higher standard.

Always love the layout here and clubhouse is second to none, but greens were in horrible condition. A lot of the tee boxes were beat up. Frairways were ok. I will wait until next ear to play again and hope it is in better shape.

Terrible condition, great layout

Many greens had multiple spots with no grass. Tee boxes in terrible shape. For $120 I would never play this course again for that price. It’s a shame because it has a great layout hole by hole, but they need to take care of the course better. Almost went into the pro shop after the round to say something, but decided it wouldn’t lead to anything. Call ahead and ask about the greens and tee boxes before you book!!

Exceeded my expectations

This was my first time playing with the help of the Hot Deal. The course had many great views from the tee box. The fairways were not too tight but layout kept you on your toes with the sand traps, unexpected water on a few holes, and dogwood left/right turns. I loved the smooth greens which helped to helped my putts roll more smooth than ever.

I’ll definitely throw this course into the mix during me next stay when Im at the Marriott Fairway Villas.

Slow

Although we enjoyed playing LBI national pace of play was awful! 5:15 to play 18 is inexcusable. Also the fungus on the greens must be rectified.

Nice layout, conditions only ok

The owners also run Vineyard National, which I liked. For over $100 even for a hot deal tee time at LBI, I was not happy to find multiple patchy greens and the fairways near the greens being torn up with deep divots. However, the layout of the course is fun, and the cocktails from the bev cart were good. For the money though, there are better courses available further south near AC and I likely won’t be coming back here anytime too soon.

Issue with the greens and surrounding areas

It’s great that the course is so close to LBI, but something happened to the greens and surrounding areas. They were not in good shape. Not sure if it was a fungus or something else but difficult to justify the current price in that condition.

Great course; Great welcoming committee

We vacation at the Shore and play 8 rounds in 2 weeks. LBI has certainly earned the “must play list”. 1st class accommodations as you pull up to course. Bag attendants get bags from car and get you ready for your round. Course is in pristine shape. Tees, fairways, bunkers and greens and great shape. Challenging design with 5 sets of tees. Played on a Friday afternoon in 4 hours. LBI is a 35 minute drive from Ocean City. Value is acceptable with a Hot Deal. Paid $79 for a 3:00 tee time. $179 a bit too steep for my pockets.
