The place has friendly staff!

They need to cut the grass. The grass was too long, can’t find my ball. You can tell the place is not maintaining well. Won’t play that place again. Vacation from Vegas. Very disappointed on the course.

Enjoyable

I lost 2 balls that I hit in the middle of the fairway. If the fairways and rough were groomed better, it would be fantastic course

Great little course right at the edge of Town

Getting a little me time in the midst of a soccer camp my kids were attending. Dropped them off and had a chance to walk 9 holes. Starter was friendly, bathrooms are clean, and looked to have a nice restaurant that I would have loved to try but had to get back to the kiddos. Try this place!

Not what I was hoping for

1st thing to know is you play the same 9 holes if you picked 18 holes. The fairway grass was as tall as the rough. A good tee shot and you can still loose your ball in the fairway. This would be holes 1/10, 2/11, 3/12, and 4/13. The locals were extremely friendly, let you play thru if you were a single.

Save your money

This 9 hole whole course is in poor condition. We ate at the restaurant and waited 45 minutes for our burgers and there were hardly any other customers.

Great vibes

Great warm up. What a super cool place.

I maintain a golf course and know the difference between eye candy and "hey let's go play some golf". This is a go play some golf course. Sure the greens are postage stamps that stimp about 6. Only a holes complain about that when paying $28. I recommend playing it twice for the 18 if you're serious about being ready for the more expensive and challenging courses the island has to offer. Hit up the club house after for a bite and drink, island hospitality at it's best 👍

Gem for a quick 9.

Must play and I think underrated- it’s the oldest course on the island. I live about a mile from this course and it is very easy to walk on most afternoons for a quick 9.

Starts with a drivable par 4 that really makes you work on your course management. Miss right and you hit a house or a car. Short you are in the creek. Left is playable but might smack the group on #2 .

Ball placement is important on most holes- as there are only two where you can grip it and rip it. Greens are small. No bunkers at all! Don’t expect pristine conditions, but they are good enough to enjoy the round- especially for the price. There are some steep hills so you have to be fit-ish to walk.

There is a fairly new restaurant there with good drinks, and really solid burgers. There is no pro shop so bring what you need.

This course is a really solid relatively inexpensive municipal track that will challenge you. I hope you try it- pace of play is pretty quick and the members get testy if they have to wait on you. So just keep pace and don't lollygag when its busy.

Very Welcoming staff

An enjoyable day. The course is quite basic but it was still fun. The fairway grass is a little too long but the layout has some challenging and interesting holes. The staff within the course are extremely friendly and welcoming and I recommend staying for a meal afterwards as new management have taken over the restaurant and the food is top notch.

Great price and location

This is a nine hole course with an interesting layout and some blind holes so I decided to play 18 holes even though it is just replaying the same 9 so that I had a better idea where to aim my shots on the blind holes.

The pace of play was better for the 1st 9 that I started around 11 am and the 2nd was busier. Can't beat the price or location.

Great 9 hole ciurse

We chose this course to ensure my husband could hit a ball after a back injury. On arrival, David was so helpful and got us set up in no time. Practice area is very basic but enough for us to try out our rental clubs. The bar and restaurant were closed unfortunately but the staff were helpful all the same. Facilities for ladies are very dated and could do with a makeover. The course was in pretty good condition and interesting and challenging enough for us to play. I particularly liked the 8th.
