Course layout is great but Fairways and 2nd Cut needs some work. The grass was non existent or very thin in most areas.

Nice layout, meh conditions

We liked the layout, with lots of movement to the fairways and some fun tee shots. The greens are cool, with different tiers and slopes.

Greens were nice medium-fast speeds and consistent.

Aside from greens, conditioning was a mixed bag. Fairways were OK. Rough very mixed (though we recognize it’s spring shoulder season). Tee boxes were quite poor - really chopped up, long grass and in a lot of cases, no flat spots.

Some BIG alligators in lakes and some...aggressive turtles!

Perfect weather
Used cart

Drive slowly on the "cart paths"

The course was empty, after a busy morning, and I went out as a single as the twosome I had been paired with did not show up yet. Front nine was empty and I played well. When on #9 I could see a group on the 10th tee, so I made a few extra putts , before making the turn. When I got to 10 tee, there were 4 carts and 8 players in the fairway, a tee shot away??? Rather than waiting for possibly 16 more shots, as it was a long par 4, I decided to jump ahead. I did not want the back 9 to take 3 - 3.5 hours. As a single I understand I will have to wait sometimes, but that was ridiculous, especially within view of the clubhouse. Not sure if this is a policy of this course to allow large groups to play together, or perhaps they were members playing some sort of competition on a slow afternoon, but I have never seen that before.

I did catch a threesome one hole later, but they moved along at a good pace, and I was happy to slow down a little, and take a few extra shots, or putts and not push up on them.

Enough of that, I did find the staff to be very friendly in the pro shop, the cart guys and the starter. Around the 15th hole a ranger came by and I told him I was going to play #10 before going to 17 and 18, and he was fine with that.

Over all the course was in average condition, tee boxes, fairways and greens were average. The rough was very thin hard packed dirt, not bermuda, and lots of leaves, pine cones, branches etc. to penalize some shots that missed the fairways. The worst part of the course were the cart paths.

Great time, great conditions

I had a great time playing this course for the first time. Everyone was friendly and informative, 9only 2 holes other than the par 3's were cart path only. Greens were fast, but overall course was in great condition. I will definitely be playing Sea Trail again.

Singles have No Priority

Lay out was OK, no blind shots & everything is in front of you so no surprises. There are 150 yd stakes in the fws but found no distance markers on sprinkler heads so some guesswork. The greens had patchy poa annua but overall decent & few spots w no grass. Teeing areas were not poor but below avg Played as single, starting on back 9 & whizzed through the first 5 b4 slowing to near stop behind a 4some of elderly gents. Other groups ahead of them prevented playing thru so as a single I held no priority & they could’ve cared less. Course meanders thru residential area & fws tight in many places & run out sooner than looks. Shorter hitters should not play anything beyond whites, could be more enjoyable moving fwd n tee selections. The par 3s r longer than avg there, the 4s range from mid 300s to over 400 & for linger hitters (250+) there are opportunities to reach the 5s in 2. Greens smallish for “resort” style course & have some elevation changes & undulation so bring a good set of eyes to putt well!.

Overall a good experience

We knew they were sending groups off of both 9s we finished our front nine and had to wait to start the back nine until the back nine groups went off. We have never had to do that before. Groups coming off the front have had priority. That slowed our back nine down tremendously. We did not see a group behind us on the front nine at all. Cannot understand the reasons.
