Super Green Course

Tee boxes are kinda short. They are greening up the farther ends of the tee boxes. Putting greens run good. The humidity is making them sorta sticky. Come out and play this awesome 9 hole. A true fun place to play and sharpen your iron play.

Sunken Gardens course conditions

This little course is kept in good shape. It would be better if players would repair their divots and pitch marks.

Greens aerated

Kinda sucks when you drop $22 on a 9 hole and every green is aerated and topped off with sand

Sandy Greens

the green were covered with sand thus it was literally putting on sand on all 9 holes! Please do not play at Sunken on Monday because it is their maintenance day! Even the practise green is covered with layers of sands. It was closed.

1 of the best 9 hole courses in The Bay

Well groomed fairways and putting greens. Flag positions are a challenge. Tee boxes are not in the best condition. But who cares. Because it just adds to the challenge. Best times to play are anytime. Days are getting longer so make this course a regular visit.

Beautiful day

Nice course, nice layout, great staff. Only problem is I pre-paid for two people and my friend came up sick in the morning. Was hoping to get a rain check for another round but was denied. I called GolfNow but couldn’t get any personnel on the phone.
