Wild Dunes Resort

My brother and I played this course in March and it was in great condition. The wind added a unique and challenging experience in course management. The value for the money might be better at the Harbor course which feels similar but is slightly shorter and easier. The links course has alot of character so be sure to grab some photos during your visit.

The signs were poor. Wandered around for 10 minutes at Halfway House looking for the bathroom. Not nearly enough parking. Could not go to driving range to practice beforehand bc we were worried about losing our parking place and being late for our t-time. Only lunch food was hot dogs. Course itself was nice.

Resort golf with a few holes on the ocean is not usually a cheap proposition, but even at Hot Deal pricing, the condition of the fairways were a real disappointment. Staff claimed cool conditions in April and early May were the culprit, but other nearby courses seem in much better shape. No such complaint about the greens, however, they were excellent. The attractive Fazio layout kept your attention, though often fairly tight as you might expect. Pace of play suffered because a family of 6 with 2 children were directly in front of us and had our threesome waiting for every shot. Even if only 4 of 6 were playing, the decision by staff to allow 6 on the course with 2 10 years olds playing at 1 pm was questionable.

The Harbour course was beautiful and well maintained. The group ahead of us combined 2 threesomes which meant waiting for 6 players to play a hole and really slowed down the pace of play. We never saw a Marshall on the course. There were huge signs everywhere promoting bringing food or drinks in but the drink cart had no food and both snack bars were closed. We were starving by the end of our round. For a major tourist course I expected more.

Professional staff. Nice layout but fairways were a little thin or bare in some areas.

Absolutely loved the course...we were on vacation and played with my son, daughter and son-in-law. We had a blast, the wind wreaked havok on my game 10-18, but was impressed with the friendliness of the staff and the course overall. Will definitely play again.

First time playing and trip to the Grand Dunes Resort

Course not well sign posted from security hut and issued map is not detailed enough,. Disappointing that the range was closed with no prior warning.

Course was in good condition on the fairways. Greens were a little sandy and signs they had been punched a shot time ago but still ran true.

Greens are tiny and a real enjoyable challenge.

When we arrived we found no carts were available and only got a cart 10 minutes before tee time. which with the range closed didn't pose an issue just not ideal.

Pace of Place became an issue, we were a four ball following a 4 ball grouping of two pairs. once out of sight of the starter the group in front split in to two groups. this just then caused a back log.

overall out a great day out just a few snags, the views and general layout make it easy on the eye and paper over a lot of cracks. would return for the same price but anything more than $60 i would consider excessive

The first thing to know is that even from its longest tees, the course in a little less than 6400 yards, so if you are a long hitting single digit player, it may not be the distance test you are looking for. There are three shorter tee boxes, so if distance is not what you need, you should find something that suits you.

The course was in good shape when we played it. The fairways were nice; the greens are a maybe a little thin, and maybe a little slow, but they do still roll pretty true.

The course has a lot of interesting holes. Both long and short par 3's. Some short par 4's that are still a test. It starts with its 3 and 5 handicap holes, and ends with 2 and 4, so a tough start and finish.

The scenery is great - a wonderful trip through the marsh. There are pretty good distances between holes (including a half mile between 4 and 5) that might make walking less than perfectly enjoyable.

One thing to note - no driving range here. Its over at the Links course, so go there to warm up before coming to play here.

Overall a good value for the $60 a person we paid to play on a Tuesday afternoon.

There were many bare patches on fairways add near greens plus everything was aerated. I felt there should have been a fees discount given course conditions. The greens were in very good shape.

Tough if you’re wild off the tee. Breezy so you have to take it into account.

Greens were small but were in great shape.

Fairways are tight. Would like to have a map of the holes that have distances from the tee to know lines off the tees to hit.

Pace of play was slow, and a they are about to lose a few of the fairways. Tee boxes and greens are fine. Pretty lay out. Worth it if you can find a deal tee time.

The course layout is OK, but the condition left something to be desired. Not as green as I had expected for a resort course. The snack bar was slow and very slow to get our food out - waited 25 mins for a hot dog!! The carts should have a GPS system - even my home course has that!!
