Nice course layout. Fairways are wide, good condition. Greens had some bare spots, particularly around periphery, but seemed fine within 25 feet of hole. Sand traps were hard, not raked, really not much sand. One of the biggest problems is that there is NO water to drink on the course. No coolers, no fountains. And it was HOT AF that day. We saw the beverage cart twice, on number 3 and on number 16. The bathrooms are locked. No one told us the code was printed on flag position card. Nor were we told of no water on course. Thankfully we had a cooler. We had a good time, but I think there are other courses in the area which a much better value.

Byrd

The greens are so fast but roll true. Impossible pin placements. Ball stopped at hole and rolled 9 feet down hill. Crazy! Course is in great shape.

Great course

I played the Byrd course. It was very good. Only thing I can pick on is the holes were cut on slopes and the greens were fast so putting was a challenge.. all in all a great place.with plenty of challenge. I would go back.

Greens were aerated.

The greens were aerated the day prior to playing. They did notify us prior to booking the tee time.,

The clubs we rented were top notch.

They had the wrong scorecard on the cart.

Lots of Room for Improvement

I will try to keep this short and start with the best things. I played the Byrd course which had apparently had the greens redone, and the green were really nice...but that was the best part of the course. The fairways were cut almost too short and were scalped in several place. It wasn't a lunch fairway at all.

My BIGGEST problem with the course is that I was playing in the summer and there was NO hydration! They had one drink cart running around BOTH of their open courses, so you were lucky to see the drink cart which we finally saw on hole 17. But the bigger problem is that they didn't have any water stations around. Most courses don't allow for coolers, but you better pack one when you come here. So far, this is my least favorite course in the area.

Greens hard as concrete.

Ball won’t stop on greens that are hard as concrete. Grass sparse in fairways and tees. No driving range or putting or chipping green.

Poor Green

Overall experience was meh. Wild life and layout was great, but that’s where the good ended. Every green has an area that is under repair and the fairways were scalped. Not worth the $75 per person that we paid. There are cheaper courses in the area in significantly better condition.

Jones course sea trail

The greens were all in bad shape, fairways and tee boxes were good.

Hope that the greens are addressed since putting on them was difficult.
