Not too shabby

Nice layout, friendly people, good amenities, and reasonable conditions (greens were pretty bumpy but overall pretty good). The pace of play at St Marks can be an issue but we managed to finish today in exactly 4 hours.

Better have a lot of time available

Course is well laid out and has some challenges. Overall condition is very good.

Pace of play is AWFUL.

4.5 hours to play 14 holes.

Had to quit as way too frustrating to spend 6 hours on a round of golf.

Solid as always

Pace of play was a bit slow, but the course was packed. The course was in good condition and it is always a good time here. Food afterwards was and always is solid as well. It was a tad pricey on the weekends but you split the charge for the cart of you rode with someone.

Fun Time- A tad misleading

good place for bogey golfers IF your ball goes straight-ish...frequently houses on at least one side of the fairway.

I found $20 for a cart (on an otherwise economical outting) an unwelcome surprise.

Really enjoy this course. Good value. Rough can be tough. Especially in the early morning when still wet. Todays round was under 4hrs! Whens the last time that happened?

Absolutely recommend.

Fun course to play. A few blind holes makes it challenging for an intermediate player like myself. I used every club in my bag.

I will definitely play it regularly. I know my wife will enjoy it as well!

Hit the Mark at St. Mark

Well layed our course with just enough length and difficulty for good golfers but enjoyable for those in the nineties. Good chance to shoot low scores. Hole 14 is classic.

A good value and fun!

I’ve always enjoyed playing this course. Staff friendly, great food and vibe. Covid precautions taken very good,. I feel safe.

Course layout is good for every level of golfer though lower handicaps may not find it as challenging as they'd like. Practice are is generous.

Pace of play in my early afternoon round was perfect.

Course conditions today was probably the only small negative. It was wet to soggy in spots with some small areas of deep mud. I’m not sure why this is but watering seems uneven.

Having said that, it was a great day on a laid back course and during these times, an island of calm and relaxation.

Try the food and beverages after your round, you won’t regret it!
