Port at Harborside International Golf Center

This used to be a great course. Unfortunately, I feel Harborside management has let it go on multiple levels. I know there has been a lot of rain lately, but the 1st cut of rough is rediculously long. Other courses are not like this. If you are not in the fairway, you literally can't find your ball 50% of the time. We spent so much time just looking for balls, then trying to hit them out. I'm talking balls that were 1 or 2 ft from the fairway. Not a fun round of golf. The cart paths are literally the worst I have ever seen at ANY course. Be prepared to hit large potholes in gravel on every hole. And the clubhouse looks dated as well. I don't understand why a course that charges sometimes over $100 can't get this right. This was not always the case here. I hope they get it together, it's not worth anywhere near what they charge. Won't be going back any time soon.

Bunkers need some repair too much cut grass everywhere

Being relatively close to the center of the city gives harborside a big advantage. Generally speaking it’s a fine course for the money depending upon what green fee you are paying. At 70ish dollars it’s a nice layout in fair condition but not up to par w many of the better maintained suburban courses. The cart paths are terrible and the greens could be a bit faster but I’m hoping that and the washed out fairway bunkers were partly due to the recent heavy rain. The course’s biggest issue seems to be the ignorant golfers who apparently can’t be bothered with raking a bunker and the great practice facility that could use a little TLC. The staff is great. Couldn’t be more pleasant and helpful.

Cool layout, esp close to city. Frindly staff and nice practice facility. Recent heavy rain forced 90 degrees on fairways (it was very wet) and greens/fairways were a little shaggy (but not course fault). Pace moved well, and saw ranger and beverage cart several times. However, cart paths are attrocious: Pot holes, uneven, disrepair all over. For $90 (twilight rate) this shouldnt be an issue. Fix them.

advertised as $132 for greens fee's and carts. Get to the pro shop and they charge $150. We were constantly getting notifications that cart path only had been removed and it was now 90 degree's from path. Every time we tried to follow the 90 degree from cart path instruction, the cart would shut down.

My only problem was the rough off the fairways and greens, I get it’s supposed to be unforgiving but man I lost about 10 balls just off the fairway. Really had to comb through thoroughly. The sand was concrete but that could be because it rained a few days in a row before I went. Overall had a very fun time! Amazing hotdogs btw best ever at a course.

Not a fan of this course anymore,starting to show age,cart paths you take your life into own hands,greens where no one fixes hallmarks,pot holes in cart paths,no sand in bunkers,worse was playing through multiple foursomes as a single where was forced to wait while golfers in front were giving lessons to players,won’t be back

I originally booked a deal time for the Starboard course. Upon arrival I was told that there was an outing on the Starboard course and the website shouldn’t have made that time available. The Harborside staff did a great job problem solving a situation they didn’t create (at least I don’t think they did) and got me out on the Port course.

PACE: Given the circumstances, I was dropped in as a single amongst 4somes, which is fine. I finished in just over 4 hours. However, 2 groups ahead of me was a 5some. They moved well, but I was surprised to see that at Harborside.

CONDITIONS: As with all courses, Harborside is in need of some rain. There were some bare/burnt spots, but most were in areas you shouldn’t be playing from anyway. The tees were beat up with divots. The fairways and rough were in good condition, and the bunkers splashed great. The greens have a bunch of potholes (repair your ball marks!) and ran at a fair speed.

STAFF: Excellent! The starter let me know about Starboard having an outing and offered a solution. The women in the Pro Shop were understanding and helped rely that message to the manager who worked to resolve the issue. I hope Harborside can work with that tee time booking company to prevent issues like this from happening again, but on this day they did a great job of troubleshooting and ensuring customer satisfaction. Thank you!

VALUE: As I said, I got a deal time online. Harborside is an enjoyable place to play but its regularly priced greens fees are outside my golf budget. Play it if you got it.

LAYOUT: I booked Starboard, and I do prefer Starboard’s layout to Port. Port does have a good collection of par 3s, and the closing 3 holes are fun and challenging. It would be nice to see some better yardage markers on sprinkler heads and maybe a 150 pole (the equipment is already installed in the fairway). Your greens fee will include a cart, but Harborside will let you walk if you want and both courses are walkable.

Was celebrating my son's 30th birthday so we choose this course. A bit pricey compared to what I'm used to. Beautiful course and design. Lots of sand and I felt like I was in every trap. Had a great time and maybe the next time we'll play the starboard course.

The courses are normally well kept, but it was in horrible condition. From the traps ( no sand, no consistency), tee boxes were hairy with no grooming, the fairways were horrendous with rough in the middle of the fairway ( the mowers missed huge swaths of grass, the greens were beat up and hairy. Not one aspect of the course was in good condition. For a course that charges the top fees around, this was absolutely unacceptable. I will not be returning till course conditions improve, I wouldn’t recommend it.

The wind and the rough make this a really tough course. The pace of play and the entitled attitude of the people at the course that day ruined it for me. If it’s busy it’ll take atleast an hour to get through the final 3 holes on the port course. Cool holes but it’s a log jam.
