Great value
Great course for the money and the staff is very friendly
Course was fun to play and the staff was excellent. The bunkers could use some help and the cart paths have some rough spots. I always have had a good experience here and the price is right.
Coming along
Fairways in great shape looks like they are working hard to get the greens back in shape they are coming along
Needs work
This is a good layout -- Zoeller design -- that needs work around the edges. Good fairway grass...but the rough was out of control. Very wet from recent rains, but the course does not drain well...lots of "mud." Some of that is due to the rain, but also lack of care. Lots of weeds growing in flower beds...cart paths are virtually destroyed in many, many places.
Greens were actually fairly quick and true...except in a few spots where they were burned out. Not a problem today.
Staff are friendly -- but no beverage cart or ranger.
This course gives you the impression they are on the economic edge.
Great price, though! I would recommend as a place to work on your game.
Not first choice but okay
IW is closest course to me so it's convenient and usually not crowded. Greens and fairways in good shape. Tee boxes are a little rough and if I recall ball washers weren't all functional. Cart guy not always out there at bag drop. Overall usually a low price option of the Brown courses. The walk up resident rate is often better than the GN rate.
I love the course. It's a little inconvenient and off island but well worth getting in your car and going 20 minutes west on 278.
lots of risk/reward holes
This is the 1st time I've played this course since 1995. From tee to green the course was in great shape . a few tee boxes need work but not bad. a few greens have some rough spots but overall in good condition. They rolled a little slower than expected.The fairways , for the most part , had very good grass. The sand traps were wet due to heavy rain the past week. i would highly recommend this course and the prices are great.
Tougher than expected
Course was in good shape. Small greens. Could have been marked better, most sprinkler heads did not have yardages. Staff was friendly. Pace of play was good
Prepare to get soaked
Had an afternoon tee time and the sprinklers were going on the entire back 9. What a joke! Couldn't even putt any greens. Not that in mattered, cause the greens are an absolute disaster anyway. This happened another time I played this course, but decided to give it another try... NEVER AGAIN!
I thought that this course was in very good shape greens were excellent brown spot here or there did not affect the play at all fairways excellent I would play this course again any day the price you pay was excellent
Nice course
The greens have recovered nicely since they were aerated.The bunkers need some attention.Fairways could be a little more lush but were good.Long rough.Overall good course.Will play again.
Annual Golf Trip
The golf course layout and fairways were great. The ONLY problem my group had was the greens were in TERRIBLE conditions. We were never told anything during check in about the green conditions and traveling from Maryland only made the matter worst.
My group was highly upset.
Island West
Greens were just aerated.. Plenty of grass when they start cutting. Fairways in great shape.
Greens
The greens on nearly every hole are in terrible condition.
Island golf
Pace of play was good. The greens were in bad shape! The fairways were not great either. I would not recommend this course.
Dear Mr. Smith,
I was so disappointed to read that this was your experience playing Island West. It is our policy to inform golfers of conditions when they book and post advisories on the web. Unfortunately we missed your group. I will work with my staff to improve communications with our guests going forward. Please accept our deepest apologies for the disappointment caused. Thank you for playing with us.
