ocean pines golf club

Golf course is still very wet. Golf path only (last 3 weeks and its pouring today} Cart people are good but the counter staff are not very friendly. The lady was but the men act like they don't want to be bothered. Also, need to let people know they don't take cash, credit card only, even for the driving range.

Need a pro shop sign over the outside door.

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback and for playing Ocean Pines Golf Club. We're glad you enjoyed your visit, but are definitely sorry to hear that you weren't treated courteously in the shop. We usually pride ourselves on our friendly customer service and are disappointed that you didn't experience that.

We do currently have a no-cash policy to protect the health of our staff and guests during the pandemic. We're sorry that this was not better advertised when you visited. Your suggestion about having a sign over the Golf Shop is a good one - it's one of the last finishing details we've been waiting on since we opened our brand-new building. Hopefully it will be up and in place the next time you visit - we hope you're able to play a round with us soon!

Great Layout, dramatic improvement from September

Played here in September and was very disappointed in the course conditions. I had heard they made some staff changes and had put a lot of work into addressing the course, so I thought I'd see for myself. Wow what a differerence! Most improvement was the greens, no more bare spots. Tee boxes and fairways have been over seeded and grass has grown in well. Still a few spots in low lying areas where water doesn't appear to drain well, but a dramatic improvement from September. I'd like to see the rough cut a little shorter, but overall the course was in very good shape.

If you haven't played here recently because of course conditions like me, I'd recommend you give the course another shot. I'm glad I did. Rates are good this time of year and they have a new Clubhouse and food management team.

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback and for giving Ocean Pines Golf Club another try! You are correct that the course had suffered some at the end of the summer, but our recently hired superintendent and assistant superintendent have worked hard to identify and correct the issues, issues that we don't expect to experience again moving forward. We will be sure to share your compliments with our team and look forward to having you play another round with us again soon!

Good OCMD Course

Enjoyed it, first time playing the course paid for a 12:50 Fall tee-time rate, was about average. Wouldn't pay too much for the course, but when we played it seemed average. In OCMD you can pay 3 figures for GREAT golf but I recommend paying half of that for Ocean Pines.

Greens were a little slow, tee boxes weren't mowed too well, but overall very green, tight course, great layout, enjoyed an afternoon with the guys, had a few birdies and shot 76!

Thank you so much for sharing your review and for playing Ocean Pines Golf Club. We're delighted that you enjoyed a fun afternoon of golf and offer our congratulations for your great round! We had just seeded the tee boxes when you played and were letting the grass grow and become established before we mowed and the winter season sets in. Our recently hired superintendent and assistant superintendent are continuing to improve the condition of the course and we're looking forward to a great year of golf - we hope you join us for another round soon!

Fairways were in great shape. For the most part, greens were good but some were being repaired. Pace of play was 4 hours because it was cart path only due to wet conditions.
