It’s also very nice to meet other golfers. As much as I don’t mind golfing as a twosome, I think that a foursome helps increase the speed of the game.

Attracted by name but disappointed with quality

Greens were packed with tuffs of thicker grass and had a lot of debris. Fairways were hard and made it hard to know if a shot hit where to wanted would stop on fairway. All said, I learned that if a course is named after a famous person,it doesn’t mean that it’s kept up to any standard.

Disappointed

My wife and I played the course for the first time and expected better. First off, no GPS on the carts which was really needed as they were a couple of holes on the front nine that were difficult to figure out where to hit to (layup fairway landing over march etc) and having to play 6 holes "cart path only".. Because of this pace of play was extremely slow for groups ahead as we constantly waited on every hole. It became so slow that when we got to the 12th tee, we were the 4th group on the hole. We called the proshop and they sent out the "golf ambassador" as they have no oncoure ranger. He told the group holding everyone up to let us go ahead. We skipped the 12th hole and found that there were 3 holes open ahead and played pretty quick. Them we got stuck on 17 behind a 5 some and waited more to play the last two holes. The layout is challenging, and the greens have a lot of undulation. They were made even more difficult to putt as most were bumpy due to spots of poa annua

popping up all over. Without having someone on the course making sure pace of play is maintained, not allowing 5somes and adding GPS to the carts, we probably won't come back.

Needs Work

Challenging course due to water & sand, but condition of tee boxes, fairways were subpar for the price and the bar personnel were rude, yet on course staff were wonderfully helpful and personable.

great course and friendly staff

It was a great course and extremely friendly staff. I have never been there so I parked me truck and was walking over with my clubs. a staff member rode a cart over to great me, put my clubs on the cart and then let me know where to go and what to do. Everyone I interacted with was very friendly and made my trip enjoyable. they allowed my boy to ride in the cart with me at no extra charge. some of the other courses charge for a rider. The course was challenging for me anyways, and well taken care of.

Nice course but the greens are shot

Baypoint used to have actual grass in the fairways, now it is dust. Their greens used to be great, now they have so much Poanna that most of the greens are totally un-puttable. No true lies anywhere, like putting on a mattress.

Gimme’s

Not rewarded when making shots to the greens what with obscure mounds or large mounds protecting the greens …add in rock hard greens and a flop shot is 20 feet off the green…lol

Greens are starting to show a need for some herbicide to stop the “little green patches” showing up to make a putt look like it’s a basketball being dribbled

Bring extra balls as there are some tee shots over water that will intimidate most low handicappers

Add in lightning fast greens you putt strength need no more than 1/4 of the way to the cup

Still laughing at the tee where you go over marsh in one way, only to cross back over in the opposite direction to get to the green

The putts that are close have to GIMME’S lol
