Baywood Golf Club

The overall course needs lots of work especially the greens and tee boxes

We played on a hot deal with GolfNow and for the money, it was ok. Poorly marked and the water features are so vegetation filled, it's hard to tell it's not fairway until your ball is in it. As few of the holes were a little hokie. Greens were rough and inconsistent. Grass was spotty but they may be having a shortage of employees like everyone else.

Let's start with the fairways and greens. The fairways are nice, wide open, well kept, and I would say forgiving. The people who live there are active and if you insist on quiet when you play. Well, you will be disappointed, as the residence enjoy their homes. I did not mind it, there were a couple of parties going on.

But back to the actual course....the greens were a little odd, as some seemed to be mushy, and the ball would just die, and others the ball would run away from you. I am sure there are people who play a lot more than I and may have a different perspective. I am also sure from my experience that some would just rake this course over the coals for not being perfect. If you are new to golf, someone who just plays for the fun of it, introducing a new golfer to the game I think you would like this course.

It's a little unsettling to see a for sale sign at the entrance, but it is clearly an active and maintained course. I highly recommend looking for hot deals or lower fees. I personally would not pay more than 20 dollars to play this course. With all that said though, the fairways are wide, and I think it is a nice course.

Unfortunately, when I went the snack bar was closed. Not sure if it was closed permanently or if it was closed because it was Sunday. Regardless, it does lend to the vibe of the course being for sale. It is clean! The 19th hole being closed is why I can't say the off-course amenities are average or higher.

I cannot say anything about the course or facilities being dirty or in disrepair. Other than the bathroom on the back 9. The light did not work, and the lock was missing. It was clean though.

If you are like me and for some reason you always seem to find every bit of water on a course, bring a few extra balls, you will need them. LOL!!!

Bottom Line:

Is the course maintained well? Yes

Are the greens perfect? No, a little inconsistent

Fairways? Wide and well maintained

Would I play again? Yes

Staff? Only saw and interacted with one gentleman who was friendly, polite, and attentive

I feel baywood has improved tremendously. It was overlooked by a lot of my friends due to the poor course conditions for the past few years. But.. I played yesterday and they are putting in a lot of time and money to rebuild. The tee boxes were good, greens are 80% good-still needs a little help on 20% if the course fairways are nice. The second cut and rough was too thick but I shouldn’t hit there to begin with right? Overall, for the course was a lot more fun to play and the staff is great.

Only thing I didn’t like then and still don’t like now is the range is in bad shape. But I’m not on the tour so it’s nbd.

The greens were ripped up. There were any piles everywhere and the range wasn’t in good shape either.

I’ve been going to Baywood Golf Course for years. It’s pretty good course and no other course in the area can beat it’s price. The greens are in better shape and than they were a few weeks ago. Lots of water hazards and some cool dog legs. I’ll keep going to Baywood and I highly recommend.

Really could be an awesome course the rough was nicer than most fairways and I don’t want to start with this greens but place has serious potential with its location a little lotta tlc I would go back once it’s in better shape

Fairways looking good they are working on it , green need much work
