Course needs a ranger

It took our foresome over 5 1/2 hours to play 18 holes! I probably would not play this corse on the weekend again until the off season unless they address the need for a ranger to keep up the pace of play.

Also the course ran out ou golf carts! Thats just crazy!

Really nice open course, well maintained. Must say sand bunkers are very intimidating.

greens were quick

Greens were quick, did not like the pin placements when the greens were on a hill, if you were above the hole, forget about getting it close. Too hard for normal golfers. It was like they were setup for the US OPEN. Other than that, great course.

Great course. Terrible pace.

Great course. Best greens in Wilmington. Fairways are ok. Pace of play is unforgivable. Staff had complaints early on but did nothing. Nearly 5.5 hours beginning with the 2nd shot of the first hole. The slow-pace means I can't recommend it to anybody.

Spring time course

The best time to play this course is in April and early May. In the dog days of summer the course gets baked up pretty bad because of how wide open it is. This time of year is when the course is at it's finest. The greens were soft but very fast and the fairways were very green. If you're going to play Ed Oliver you need to play it before Memorial Day
