Nice corse let down by poor facilities

Very pretty course but the club house looks like a 1950s bunker with poor access. We got sandwiches from the on course cart person who was very nice but the sandwiches were literally from a convenience store (we saw them later) and were mushy white bread ham and cheese.

The course was in decent shape for the time of year and greens rolled true.

We booked at a discount rate. Staff were very friendly but they sent out a foursome ahead of us at the 10th and pace of play went to a standstill.

Nice course/poor customer service

This course was great but the customer service was disappointing. They also teed off both nines simultaneously which meant after you made the turn you now were behind several groups just starting.

Course was in good shape, but had trouble finding the red tees for my wife. Greens were smooth but covered in nuts and leaves. Cart paths were a total wreck. They had no food in the pro shop or anywhere else.

Great Greens!

Really enjoyed playing the course. Used a cart, but could have walked as well. Staff very friendly and professional. Some other reviews spoke about the condition of the cart paths. While they do need some work, I would not take that away from a really fun course.

M Travaglia Review

This course is one of 3 at Sea Trail with its own clubhouse. the Dan Maples course was in far worse condition than the other two. There was no amenities at this course. the clubhouse was closed before we made the turn at 11:30 and couldn't even buy a bottle of water or a snack. we called the jones clubhouse to ask for a reason they were closed and didn't have an answer. They sent us the beverage cart after we requested it and didn't offer to send it. Overall the course was in ok shape and the staff was non accommodating. I will not return there to play again. there are tons of courses in the area to chose from who treat their guests better. .

Rough Greens

Just over seeded and the greens were terrible. Would not recommend playing for a while until the new grass comes in. Extremely slow, we played first 7 holes in 50 min and then hit groups in front of us and no rangers on the course to speed up play.

Excellent course

We played 3 courses on this trip and this was by far the best of the 3.

Tom at the pro shop was very friendly and enjoyable to speak with.

Corse was in great shape and a fun and very fair challenging course.

I may be a little bias on this because I shot my best round of golf in 5 years.

I shot a 76!!!!!

Making pats and birdies are very achievable and the greens ran very true.

My son had an off day but he also loved the course and said he'd like to get a chance to play it again sometime soon.

I would recommend this course over about 15 others on the strand that I've played.
