Great Course!!
Awesome course.. Great value for the money. Friendly staff. Definitely on the list to play in the future.
Not worth the money
Might be due to weather, maybe the season, but course was WET! Water on fairways, very soft fairways, greens missing spots. Had fun, wasnt unplayable by any means, just needs work. Got a discount play at $81.00 through golf now but dont know if its worth that. Nice club house, seemed like nice housing on course, but play was little less than desired. Carts delivered as soon as we arrived, and very friendly staff on start. Kilmarlic is a name I regarded as High End and Perfect, but this trip didnt meet it. Maybe COVID maybe just weather, at $60 id play again, but anymore Ill try elsewhere. Check reviews closer to date for conditions.
Great layout Great customer service
This is a beautiful course with lots of challenges, but yet is a fair course. When you do get into trouble it is deep trouble. The layout is very nice, with no two holes alike. Its not a grip it and rip it course. I'd definitely play it again and agian.
love this course
Play this course ever time im on OBX and I hate 12 always bogey..
Greens need work/Fairways cleaned up
The greens had chickweed throughout most greens. Most fairways had clumps of grass clippings that were not cleared. Disappointing for a high value course.
Back 9 was spectacular
Great parkland corse, somewhat wide to spray a bit. Really enjoyed my round.
This course has gone downhill
While on vacation in the Outer Banks, I played Kilmarlic with my friends twice. I had remembered this course as being one of the finest In the Outer Banks area. I'm just not impressed anymore. Many areas are burned out, making it much harder to hit your ball off of burned, hard ground. Most of the sand traps have either little or no sand in them, which is very annoying. Then there's the greens...really in mostly bad shape, with weeds and muddy areas, just not even close to befitting a top grade golf course. Now, if they charged a fair amount of money to play there, it would be different, but they are still wanting high tee time fees. Not likely I will be going back any time soon
Crabgrass growing in the greens,greens not in the best shape.No ball washers.Too much money per round and not enough ammenities.
Great Experience
Bag drop was well managed and friendly welcome. Starter was very helpful and professional. Tap Room 19 hole was over the top. Would recommend to anyone. Thanks!
Visually intimidating, fun, a little weird, odd routing
This is an interesting course and worth a play. Fairways were in fantastic condition, greens were hit-and-miss. Bunkers, not really all that good. Most holes look frightening off the tee and often so from the fairway: tall grasses, lurking hazards, bunkers, trees. However, it's not quite as hard as it looks, as the greens are huge and pretty accessible.
The weirdest thing about this course is the routing, which is affected by being laid out among bogs and subdivision plots. But the fact that the designer only designed two courses explains some of it, too--Nos. 2 and 11 are twin par 3's played side-by-side. Holes are spread far apart and it's hard to keep track of where you are on the course. For example, from 9th green you pass 5th tee, 4th green, the clubhouse, 1st tee, the driving range and finally you're on 10.
What's cool is all the holes pretty much stand alone. What's not so cool is there are a few too many risk/reward gimmicks, such as the C-shaped 12th short par 5, which actually plays shorter than the severe dogleg par 4 4th. Obviously, walking is pretty much out of the question.
Overall a good/fun challenge. Like many OBX courses, very expensive, but I played midday and not only was the price lower, but there were very few others on the course, making for a nice quick pace.
Amazing course layout, greens need work
Absolutely gorgeous course with awesome bunkering, ponds, and penalty areas. Challenging, but not too tough for almost all handicaps. Only downside was divots on fairways and really bad punctures on greens, they definitely need some work.
