Too Busy!

Had to wait at every hole and we strarted from the 10th hole. All the greens were just weeds cut short. Very little signage for each hole and for yardage on the fairway.

Don’t waste your money

This is the worst golf course in the area. The cart paths look like land mines have exploded. Everything is dried out burnt up and the greens are like putting in the fairways. Sand traps are dirt holes. I wish I knew this before I payed money to play and need to get my money back. I haven’t played a track this awful in years. I didn’t even finish the round. DO NOT WASTE TIME OR $$.

The course is under construction which is not indicated on their web site. Difficult to reach certain holes, with very little signage. We drove thru the area under construction in and around heavy equipment. Not safe at all.

Cow pasture.

What a terrible course! The tee boxes and fairways were not cut and the rough was just dirt. The cart paths were straight out of a war zone, just chunks of asphalt and craters. It looks like they are probably going to shut it down and are trying to maximize their profits by not putting any money into it. I would not play this course again even if it was free!

Very disappointing

Terrible condition, no up keep. Way overpriced. Not sea trail like we thought we would be playing. Not worth $ 80. Should have been no more than $ 35. Would never recommend.

Once you get passed bag drop…..

Once you get past the bag drop/ check in process you can finally relax and play golf. Don’t know how or why it has to be soo confusing and disorganized. I get there is no place to stage a golf cart by the first hole but communicate that. Every group we talked to said the same time. We ended up hopping in a cart finding the first tee. Realized there were 5 groups on the same hole went to 10, played the back first and never waited again. Great track.

Nice course, will not be back

Played the Jones course on Friday April 5th. Course was nice. I was crunched for time, had the first tee time as a single. Starter asked if the twosome set to tee off on 10 could join and start on the first. I was fine with this, played with a couple nice fellas from Michigan. I asked the starter if we would run into anyone on the back when we made the turn. “I’ll put this flag on your cart to make sure no one gets in front of you.” We get to 10, group on the green, group in the fairway and group waiting on the tee! 3 foursomes! Needless to say I was not impressed! Round took longer than 4 1/2 hours. Thought about talking to the starter afterwards but ultimately decided to take my business elsewhere in the future!

Needs attention

The tees, and greens were in fair condition, although the greens had a lot of poa. The fairways could be better, and the cart paths were terrible as well as the areas off the fairway. We will not be playing here again…very disappointing.

GREAT COURSE TO CHALLENGE ALL TYPES OF PLAYERS

First let me say that I disagree strongly with some of the past comments. Number one... Construction give me a break yes there is construction going on but it only impacts 3 holes, 1.3.9 on the Jones course and only modestly. Yes the cart path is torn up in a couple of spots so no biggy just go on the sand and go slow outside of this their cart paths where some of best for no bumps. Next conditon.. Give me another break.. We played 4 other courses this week and this one was the best. I really think some people think the course should be in prime condition in February and March.. It just doesn.t happen. The Jones course has a nice mix of holes offering a challenge and birdie opportunities. It is also scenic and we played in just under 4 hours with a one oclock tee off. The staff are super friendly both in the club house, loading and bar. My only complaint and it is a weaker one I guess would be that we did not see the cart person on the front or back despite the office confirming there was one. Would definetly go back next year.

Stay away

This course is in extremely poor condition, they are closing soon for renovations and seemed to give up on maintenance. Greens were very slow, signage is non existent and bunkers and rough is a shambles. I can't believe they charged over $60 to play this course, embarrassing!

Under construction!

Sea Trail is doing construction. Had to start on the back nine and felt as if I needed an orange vest and a hard hat. Extremely difficult getting to and from certain holes. Very difficult getting from hole 10 to hole 1. Nothing was marked save for some faded spray paint on the blacktop. Get some signs! Holes 1-9 were very pretty, but getting back to the club house proved a challenge.

Not on my do-over list.
