Bluewater Bay has a very nice layout and will test your drives on a few holes. Very forgiving and in very good shape.

Would love to play here in a month. Early spring was the only difference between good and great conditions. True greens.

A few too many doglegs

Overall a good experience. Great golf for the price. A lot of tight fairways, not very forgiving if you miss. Some very challenging holes. The holes along the bay especially pleasant.

Ok for the money.

Course has some nice holes but wasn’t in the greatest shape. Some greens on the second nine were a little rough. Price was low and enjoyed the round.

Tight fairways and lots of trees

Many trees on a lot of holes and plenty of sand. Challenging course but very nice.
