great facility, good value

I played 18 holes here with my wife. We both had lots of fun. The course layout is excellent and offers lots of challenges and good view holes. We particularly enjoyed the driving range before the round. The course was a little wet when we played however, it was overall good value for the money.

Soggy round

This was my first experience at Bayview.
Although the weather was excellent, the course was very soggy. It seems to drain poorly, making for a muddy quagmire in places.
The grass was very long, even in the fairways, but the greens were in a little better shape. The rough was very thick and wet, requiring me to sometimes club up a couple of clubs to ensure I'd get out of it.
The greens fees were very cheap, so I guess I got what I paid for.
There was a lot of construction to a local sewer project going on, shortening one hole from a par 4 to a par 3, and creating a couple of detours.
The staff were friendly, and doing their best.
There are some beautiful views of Kaneohe Bay on the back nine.
All in all I did not have an experience I could recommend, but if you're just looking for a quick, cheap round, go for it.

"Short Stuff"

This course is great for practicing your short game although there are 6 par 4 holes (3 front / 3 back nine). Because the par 4 are short one could drive the green, makes it fun for us weekend warrior's. Flags are visible for all holes from the tee.
There are no sand bunkers, only grass/weed pits. The greens are nicer now compared to past conditions. There are no Course Marshalls so sometimes the pace of play can't be very slow, depending on how many less skilled players are ahead of you.
The Snack Shop just opened recently and the food is average.
The two tier Driving Range allows for warming up or just practice. Great place for one to teach a young golfer provided the instructor has golf manners and allow a faster player or smaller group to play through. Beautiful scenery on the back nine.

Good course for both beginner and experience players. Greens in good shape, fairways ok, Only grip was the need for a marshall on the course for slow groups. Had a group with 7 players in front, holding up everybody behind. No limit on number of players in a group?

Great course for short game!

I really enjoyed this course. The views are stunning, and the course itself is really lovely. I took my girlfriend who has only played once before and even she enjoyed it. It offers great holes for beginners and challenges for more advanced golfers as well.

It was the perfect course for my friends and I. I'm a beginner and my friends are a little more experienced and yet the course challenged us all.

Good course for beginners with good $ value

This is a good course for beginners or those who want to play a quick round of golf with friends. It's a par 60, with four par 4s that you can use driver or 3-wood on.

Greens are in mostly good condition though 2 or 3 on the back nine are a little rough, not enough sun gets to those spots. The fairways on two of the par 4s are pretty narrow so you can lose your tee shot if you're not accurate. The view of Kaneohe Bay from the 15th tee is pretty nice.

The staff was pretty friendly and groups seemed spaced out well. A marshal would be nice to hurry the slow groups along though.

nice executive course

Bay view still has some work to do but I enjoyed the round. Greens are in great shape. Some holes (1,2,5,6) need attention. This course will give you a run for the money and I certainly will play on it again. Perfect for the second round of the day.

Great shape and can't beat the price! With GolfNow discount it was almost 50% off but regular price is $20 per w/cart so it is a bargain. Par 3 course with 3 par 4's a side. Not as easy as it seems on score card. Very challenging holes.

Most of the par 3 holes are fairly short (under 130yards). The par 4s are adequate. The greens were well kept. I could see that management was putting $$$ back towards the course through the repairs that were being done to the bridges that connect up the courses (along with the conditions the greens were in). The course had other golfers but was able to play at a comfortable pace and did not feel rush.

A hidden gem

Great course to practice your short game. There are enough hazards to make this par 3 course quite interesting. Some fairways are a bit narrow so your tee shot needs to be fairly straight. The greens are well kept, the views are breathtaking and spectacular, and best of all, the staff is excellent, friendly and accommodating.

The staff is nice, but the local players are slow.

1. Although it has one staff handling everything, he is nice and helpful.

2. The local players are slow. I found some of them played two balls, even though they knew I was waiting behind.

Great beginner/intermediate course,

Whenever we visit the island, I love to play here first as my warm up round. The back nine are especially fun. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Best deal for the dollar on the island.

Stay away...

So I had the day off and decided to play this course based on some recommendations from other people on Yelp about it being a good course for the money. I got a discount and payed around $17.50 (cart included) for 18 holes plus $25 for club rental. I was looking forward to working on my driver but found out pretty quick this is a par 3 course with a few 4s thrown in. My biggest complaint was the upkeep of the fairways and greens. The fairways were what I would call "rough". I'm from Colorado and used to playing in wide open fairways with plenty of "forgiveness" if you don't hit it straight off the tee box. Not so here...the fairways were extremely narrow and unforgiving. I gave up on hole 7 because I lost four balls just trying to get a good tee shot. On to hole 8 and same thing but luckily my first shot was just inside the fairway. The tee boxes were so un-kept that there were weeds growing and were mostly dirt. The staff were friendly and accommodating but that's about the only good thing I can say about this course. My advice...wait until the twilight walking special because that's all I would pay to play this course.

Great for beginners and perfectionists

Great course for those just starting out, especially women. It is also great for those who want to just home in on the tee.

Wouldn't want to pay over $25.00

I started at 9:35AM and it was raining until 11:30AM. If it wasn't raining I would have somewhat had a great time, although the grass is so thick and long in most places outside of the fairway it m,ade it difficult to enjoy the game. They really need to cut the grass shorter!
