Another wonderful date!

My wife and I play here regularly. She is not up for a long course, so this works out great. They have done a great job fixing it up. We can usually complete a round in 3 hours, so it’s great for a quick round.

Nice views but poor customer service

First time playing here. We paid for four green fees to play together as a twosome. We needed to rent clubs and we were forced to rent four sets of clubs despite only using two. Course conditions were 2 star and greens inconsistent. Hole layouts were nice on the back 9. Views were beautiful on the back 9, but poor customer service and nickel and dime approach let a sour taste.

Challenging

Lots of Par 3's but can be truly challenging with narrow fairways, or none at all. Much of the course under construction but be ready for a good time. Staff is very friendly and helpful

Best bang for the buck!

Great views. Beautiful setting. First 6 holes are par 3. Very short course. Great for working on your short game. Restaurant has amazing food and atmosphere!

Worth the visit

A shorter, somewhat challenging in places, but very enjoyable course. Highly recommended. They offer junior, senior (62+), and military discount rates. Be good if Golfnow noted these.

GREAT COURSE

This is a great go to course,staff is always friendly and willing to help. The course is challenging enough to improve your game yet still able to enjoy. The grounds crew is constantly making improvements and the food and drinks have always been fantastic. Driving range is always a good place to hone your skills with some of the same friendly accommodating staff! Definitely recommend going here it's one of my favorites.

Great executive course

Has a great covered driving range with a nicely appointed snack shop. The course is short but reasonably well kempt. Some great views on the back nine. Can’t beat it for the price.

Easy Front 9 Challenging Back 9

This is a short 18 hole course I found enjoyable to play. There are a number of short holes and no Par 5 holes, but that's okay as this gave me a chance to work on my iron tee shots and chipping. The greens were decent and consistent. Better than the local municipal courses but only by a little. Waling the front nice is easy, but I am very glad I rented a cart as the back 9 is hilly and challenging. You can loose a lot of balls on the back 9 too! ...But overall the back 9 was more fun! Also booking thru Golfnow.com was easy to use; and I basically paid the published weekend rate and got the electric cart for free! So I will use Golfnow.com more often to find other last minute rate specials at other Oahu courses. And yes, I would go back to Bayview again.

A great executive muni

Started a little boring at first but the layout became more interesting in the final 11-12 holes. Great views of the ocean from some of the finishing holes. Conditions good overall despite very dry conditions. Pace of play dictated by the group in front like any course, but you can probably get through in 3-3 1/2 hrs on a weekday. The driving range is a little pricy but it’s shaded and has great amenities/drinks/food. Staff were friendly and helpful. For a quick, laid back round while visiting Oahu, this place needs to be considered.
