Happy New Year

I always enjoy playing a round of golf with good company, in shorts, on New Year's Eve. The Pearl is a nice track in good shape you should put on your list when visiting MB.

Throughly enjoyable

The desk staff were engaged and friendly. The starter was full of tips, plays the course often, so he told us some things to avoid, but left other enjoyable adventures for us to discover on our own. The course was set in spots, done holes were carry path only, but it is Dec. A great day on a great course, in a great setting.

Great track

We had a great day at the Pearl, great layout in very good shape. I was apprehensive booking tee time when it was wide open on a Saturday morning, so glad I did. The course is a great layout with many different challenges. There are several holes around Marsh and river views that will keep you in good spirits

Outstanding Course / Great Layout

Course was in good condition on fairways and greens. Cart paths could need a little work. Layout was challenging, but fair. Nice scenery, particularly the West nine. Will definitely play here again.

A Pearl Plus Experience

Other than some mosquitos and some wet spots due to recent heavy rain, a great day. The staff is quite friendly. Beautiful course with excellent greens. No rake in traps due to Covid - no problem. since they must drag the traps nightly. Fairways are great too - wish I hit more of them though. Bring some mosquito repellent and enjoy a great round at an excellent course run by super nice staff..

The Pearl no longer shines

The Pearl is no longer a 36 hole complex as they have closed the East course holes 3-11 only playing holes 1,2 & 12-18. With the exception of the last two holes on the East nine, the East course’s conditions have become horrendous...bare tee boxes & fairways on holes 13-17 makes one wonder why they just don’t abandon the East course totally. The West course (we only played the original back nine) is in pristine condition. So sad to see this gem literally die off. Unless they go with just the West course only, this will no longer be in our rotation.

nice track....bad mosquitoes

Course was nice and in good condition. Staff was not very friendly. We preferred not to use the bag drop due to COVID-19. We asked to take a cart to the parking lot and were told no. Then we saw two other groups pick up carts and take them to the parking lot to get their clubs. Must treat tourist different than locals. Also, the mosquitoes were the wort I have ever seen....so take bug spray!
