Yopu've Got Better Options

The greens were the worst I've played in a long time...fungus, bumpy, very little real grass.

a flat 4 footer was a bumpy ride. They need to offer a discount and tell patrons that the greens are rough.

Great layout, but course was very wet due to major storm the day before (not their fault), but greens were not in good shape due to Winter…greens need another month to grow-in, but Fairways were in good shape for early Spring golf. A definite course to play starting April.

Don’t think you’re wrong playing this course

From the time I pulled in till the time we left, every question was answered played the course in a little less than four hours. Everybody was friendly. The staff and other patrons were amazing. We’ll play it again. Next time I come down overall I’ll give it five star.

Slow pace

All was good except the pace. Took around 5 hours to finish. No marshall came around to try to speed up slow players.

Byrd current condition 12/15/2024

The Bryd course is underwater from the sprinkler system. I played the front 9 holes and quit. Staff allowed us to play the front 9 holes of the Jones course to complete our 18 holes. The Jones course was in great condition.

Terrible conditions

Course is being reseeded. Extensive watering makes for saturated fairways. Almost unplayable.

Average

First time playing - got a good rate plus an additional Golf Pass reduction.

When we checked in at their newly renovated club house, we were impressed and assumed the course would match the calibre of the club house. Unfortunately not.

The Sea Trail Jones Course was in rough condition, particularly the greens which were patchy best. The layout was somewhat unimaginative and snaked its way around the massive array of houses. Fairways were over seeded (expected for fall) but unfortunately very wet as rain the night before limited play to cart path only (understandable). The baroness of the course allowed wind to searingly face head on no matter the direction of the tee.

Long story short, the course needs attention to align with the prowess of the club house. There are plenty of courses surrounding it worth playing so management should pay heed.
