Course in great shape.

I live here on the King & Prince golf course. It's a great course & a good lay out. I am 76 years old and I would play more but my body fights me. I love the course but wish they had a better rate for people like me who would join the course but couldn't play enough to make it feasible money wise.

Booking through GN

Booking through GN gives the customer zero flexibility. Will not utilize GN or play King and Prince again..

Personality

Course Is really nice. Greens & fairways in great shape. Views are beautiful on the marsh. Only thing negative would be if you don't get a hot deal the price is very high. I live on the Course but I have not joined mainly cause my body only allows me to play once or maybe twice a week so it wouldn't pay for me to join. Wishing they had a local or senior rate available for those who live in the neighborhood.

Fun Course

The course itself was great. The yellow flies, which dominated the day were horrendous. I had not played on this island before and the yellow flies were unbearable. It would have been nice to have a warning from the clubhouse. One of my other pet peeves is when a course is in this price range (I paid about $150 with tax) charges an extra 8 dollars for range balls. The course itself was in great shape and the layout was very fun. Lots of unique holes and there is a stretch on the marsh that I really enjoyed.

Did not know what to expect since I had never played. Front nine is amongst residential development with a couple of memorable holes. The back nine moves to the marsh and is very impressive.

Hit and run

Stay away from this place in the morning!!!! The yellow flies were out in force. I drove into a wooded area after an errant slice and had to leave my ball where is was. There were literally about 30 yellow files that attacked me and swarmed the cart. There were at least three or four holes where I had to jump out of the cart with club in hand (so that it would keep rolling and draw the flies with it), run up to my ball and hit it and then run back to the cart and floor it. The yellow flies pestered us the whole day. I don't recall one hole where I wasn't swatting with my hat.

That being said, the course is lovely. The 4 holes out in the marsh are very cool and very easy on the eyes.

I almost left after a few holes due to the yellow flies, though. Not management's fault, just mother nature being nasty. Be nice if they offered a discount for morning tee times and warned you in advance...

Beautiful Course

The front of the course is very similar to traditional solid beach course. The back nine is one of the most beautiful stretches of golf I’ve ever played. Very picturesque and in great condition. Not long but challenging.
