Sand traps

Tee boxes and fairways were in good shape. Sand traps have been neglected for months. Some washed out. Might find a rake every once in a while. Greens no mowed and ball marks everywhere. Safe your money and play somewhere else.

Links in good condition

I have played here numerous times. The course was in very good condition. Driving range was closed. Barely noticed the overseeding of some greens. They all rolled nicely except 17 which was slightly bumpy. Perfect weather. Nice layout.

Windy weather

I've played this course many times and its always been great. This time it was in horrible shape. Very disappointing. Looked like there hasn't been enough course workers around to take care of the course. Traps looked like they hadn't been raked in a week or so, Mowed areas were shaggy. Don't know what was going on. Played at Regatta Bay the next day and it was in great shape for November.

Rocky greens

Frustrated with all the small stones on the greens. I guess they came from the sand traps. They were large enough to divert your putt if you did not sweep them off your path.

Overseeding But Good

As is the case with many courses in the South this time of year, Baytowne is coming out of overseeding so the conditions are not ideal. Greens were very slow and the course was moist but that's because they need to keep the grass from getting dry. However, this is a nice track with some great holes and I would definitely play again when its' in better shape.

Lovely afternoon

We always enjoy playing Baytowne. Not as soggy and wet on the course this week. Wish they’d offer specials for locals and for playing only 9 holes.

Lovely course and great views along the bayside

Despite 3” of rain the previous day the course was open and 90% of bunkers were in v. good state to play from. Some wet spots on fairways but managed well by course markers and officials. Got very windy for our back 9 which was challenging, but course was in great condition after overseeing and greens ran well and fairly quick.
