Another good round

The club house had been knocked down and under rebuild so food and drink service are limited. Course is in good shape. This course is one of our favorite in the area.

Really good track,a good solid test.

Maryland has had a tun of rain. Course very wet but held up really well. I think the better golfers will appreciate and enjoy this course. Very difficult par 3 holes. Fun par 5 holes.

Bill's two cents

Had a wonderful day of golf at Ocean Pines, Berlin, MD. As noted course was in great shape, weather a bit overcast but perfect.

Great value for the money, especially with other area courses charging twice, or more, for greens fees.

Only negative would be having additional information detailing some holes on the course. Couple of blind shots and water coming into play. Didn't recall from previous time playing.

Good Value for the Price

The staff was friendly and attentive. The course is poorly marked for first time players - -no info on score card, yardage markers hard to find or non-existent. That being said, the price, available on GolfNow.com was a good value in comparison to the $80+ per round courses nearby.

Instead of printing yardage information on our scorecards, Ocean Pines Golf Club offers a custom app that can be downloaded for free. It has GPS, playing tips for each hole, live scoring and more. The USB charging ports on our carts make it easy to keep your devices powered up on the course. The next time you visit, be sure to ask our Golf Shop staff about our app, or search the Apple or App stores before your round. Fall is a fantastic time for golf on the Eastern Shore, so we hope you'll play with us again soon!

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Jim. You're correct that the end of summer has brought some substantial rainfall to the area, although we've been able to dry out in the past week. We're glad that the somewhat soggy playing conditions didn't interfere too much with the enjoyment of your round on our Robert Trent Jones-designed course. We look forward to having you visit us again soon!
