What a gem

I’m not that great but the pace of play was good and not overbearing as to sap the fun out of a round. All my friends from out of town also loved this course.

Preakness East

First time playing this course and had a good time. The fairways are open and forgiving. The rough was not too rough but that thick grass can hurt you. A great deal and well maintained for a county course . Most of the challenges come from the tee box - the back nine have a few holes with the inability to see the hole from the green

Decent Value

Enjoyed the course overall. Decent value, good pace of play, good conditions (a bit dry / burnt in some rough areas, otherwise greens, tee boxes, and fairways were all in good condition) but overall very good for county course. Would play here again

Meh

Played the East. This review is for the East course. For me and my taste.the back 9 certainly better than the front.

The course was not marked well, or at all.. if you are not going to put distance marking out other than the occasional one, at least have a real scorecard instead of a photocopy so first time players know where the dog legs are. I’m not an app on phone guy, I’m on phone all day working. Mark the course better or have real s ore cards on the east.

County course above average.

Overall a good experience playing the east course. Pace of play was slow that Monday. Short yardage but in good condition. Did not visit restaurant.
