Adequate but disappointing

Played the east nine. (Legacy) for the first time since the renovation. One green location seems to have changed, but otherwise it is the same course. Conditions were good but the greens (supposedly regrassed) were disappointing. Some better than others, but generally chewed up and loaded in places with worm cast.

Staff friendly and helpful. Price of the round (9 holes) for a resident senior was $18 - a good deal. Price of range balls ($14 for 75) and beer ($7 for a draft) was not..

Back nine in bad shape

I never write reviews but trying to help fellow golfers. Back nine is in terrible shape. Water issues, huge patches without grass, greens not cared for, rough areas eat golf balls it’s so thick and uncared for, and guy at counter in clubhouse had no idea how to do his job.

They full 18 are in better shape.

Convenient, fun track.

I had not been to the Sportman’s facility before and as a North Shore resident it was great to discover this place which features a full length 18, 9 hole, par 3 course, decent range, and mini golf for the kids. We played the East 9 on a time crunch and though straightforward and simple, the East 9 was really fun to play. Tight to the marshland in spots, we definitely lost a few balls due to lack of course knowledge, but the gps in the carts was generally useful (missing several bunkers), and if we kept it straight, we were out of trouble. Staff was friendly, attentive, and fun. Will definitely be back!

Sportsman’s East

Course was soggy due to all the rain recently. The rough hadn’t been cut in a while and was deeper than usual. Pace of play was extremely slow.
