Everything is on a hill

Nothing is flat. Tee boxes need some work. Pace of play is slow. Good amenities though.

BV Late Afternoon Aug

I hadn’t played here for a few years. I came back to check out the new Ownership and changes. It was nice to see bright green fairways and lakes with plenty of water. I have always enjoyed the course layout and design. I think Bay View has enhanced and brought out what most liked about the course. The views are still spectacular. The course still is a workout to walk up and down. I liked the out of bound areas mowed down. The greens are still fast and tricky. Solid course in which I hope maintains its conditions I saw today.

Good maintenance

it's a nice course and fun to play. shots need to be accurate as most fairways are tilted which may penalize good shots, though it's not very difficult to recover. the course maintenance is well above average in public courses and I hope the club continue to maintain it well.

Cart path only

Very hilly course. Cart path only. Really miserable unless you hit it near the cart path every time. Greens are poor condition. Conditions overall improved from a year ago. Still in mediocre shape. Great staff in bar and clubhouse though.
