LBI National Golf & Resort

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.

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.

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.

Enjoyable round. It would be nice if there additional yardage markers like on sprinkler heads.

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.

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.

We only played 5 holes due to thunderstorms. Golf Now only gave us a partial credit not a full refund which I expected.

I have always liked this course. The layout is great and it is a challenging but forgiving course. I was very disappointed in the conditions of the greens. Many black spots and bare spots forced them to put in unusual pin placements. Lots of bare spots in the fairways as well.

Good pace of play, 4:10 for 18 holes with a 1 pm tee time.

Friendly and helpful cart girl came around several times as well as Rangers carrying coolers of cold water on this very hot day.

I have enjoyed playing this course multiple times and like its proximity to LBI. Last year the course was in great shape. This year it’s in really rough condition. Not sure if something specific happened but the greens had areas of very large black patches and around the greens was bare and rough as well. Could be a fungus issue or something like that but at the price point it would have been good to know in advance the course was having some condition issues.
