Excellent now!

I played this course several years ago pre covid and a major complaint would be the the conditions. The fairways are flush and the greens are in perfect shape! It deserves a minimum 4.5 star+ rating now.

Beautiful day

First time playing and what a great experience. Tough but manageable with excellent maintenance to the course. Greens were fast and if you thought it would break you were wrong. This is now a course on my list for next year.

Calabash golf without crowds

Theearl is a good choice for Calabash / N MB golfers that want to escape crowds. The course is nicely maintained with a fair layout. It is tucked in between Sea Trail and Ocean Ridge Plantations, but there are no homes built on the course. It is a good choice for a challenging round of golf.

Beautiful course in great shape

The course is beautiful and in excellent shape.! The only negative I encountered was pace of play. We had an extremely slow foursome in front of us. I mean slow! Having a ranger on the course could have helped this situation.

Best conditions we’ve played this season. Very impressed considering they had no real issues this early in the season. Tee boxes, greens, and fairways were spectacular. Pin placements were tough, but the greens weren’t fast, so they were playable. We played West/East and enjoyed our round thoroughly.

Enjoyable and fair course

Played blue tees, good test for my handicap (20). One or two greens had no sand in a bunker. Other than that, good condition.
