Pandemic Play Pleasure

This course was a pleasure to play. We got a tee time at 2 pm. The weather was perfect and no one. was behind us. The course is well-kept and enough of a challenge for intermediate players with rolling hills to keep your ball from going too far off course. The only reason I took off a point is that the driving range ball machine was broken and there was no staff to distribute range balls so that we could warm up.

Great day off golf!

We teed off at 1:00 and the three if us completed 18 holes in 3 1/2 hours. That was great!! Course is in great shape and doesn’t punish the average golfer. Definitely will play again.

Good play for the price

$42 with golf now discount so was happy for the price. The fairways and greens were in great shape but the traps hadn’t been raked in a long time and need sand added.

Don’t waste your time

The staff is very off putting and the course isn’t that special. If this is a course you live near and enjoy probably not a terrible option, but you can probably find better. If you are a tourist and looking for a decent priced fun round, look somewhere else it’s a waste of your vacation time.

Very mediocre experience.

Greens had been aerated within past couple of weeks. They were bumpy, slow and inconsistent from one green to the next. Tee boxes needed mowed. Bunkers were in need of edging. Carts had coolers but we had to ask for ice. They had NO cups or bottles of water. Luckily I brought a cup and a couple of bottles of water. No towels in cart. No tees in cart. No on course beverage service. Went to snack bar at turn and they only had hot dogs, no other sandwiches even though there was a menu listing various other choices. Very lacking in amenities based on a resort type course. Funniest thing of the day was the cart attendant telling us that the course was in great condition.

Old course in need of help

Needs updating to keep them at the same level as the two other courses on-site. Would not go back for the price when you can get better value near by.

August Golf

Overall Maple course layout was fine but greens need significant improvement. Many greens had 2 types of grass growing and could not get a natural roll.

Sea Trail Rees Jones Course in August

An okay experience. Played at just before 8am on a Wednesday. Starters were unfriendly. No beverage cart service on a hot day and no mention of this by either the starters or the check-in staff in the golf shop. Was playing as a single, matched up with another golfer which was fine and expected -- went off of #10. Pace was okay but not great - waiting on every tee and approach shot, not unexpected when playing as a twosome. Layout was good -- challenging at times. Course conditions were okay but greens were rather slow and a couple of course features just felt a bit unattended to (bunkers, tees and rough). Overall an average round of golf.

Ground Keepers need a refresher course on details

The biggest issue I had was the mowers. They mowed with a very close cut that left heavy globs of grass on the fairway and greens.

This course was recommended as a primer course, Just not up to the billing
