Great value Very quick pace to the golf course. Arrived early and was able to play 18 in about 3 hours. April 3, 2013
Course is looking good. Owners have been updating Course is really looking good. Owners have been updating and its in the best condition I've seen it. They had a frost delay the day we played and they even called me prior to our tee time to let me know. February 21, 2013
Wow, great people and a great course! Chip was very helpful. Our group came in and had the wrong tee time and he was able to squeeze us in and allow us to tee it up. Course was great, weather was great and we had a great time! Thanks to all at Seascape golf course for being understanding and giving us an oustanding round of golf for our buck! February 7, 2013
Good course Great Staff This was a great course for the price. The staff was extra friendly. Easy to score low if you are a decent golfer February 1, 2013
Cow Pasture Any golfer who lives in the RTP area know this course is some what of a cow pasture and the green fees are too high for the conditioning of the course. We play there as a last resort. It is a shame they don't take care of the course because it is a nice little layout. January 31, 2013
nice variety of holes yet they all fit together this course has a nice variety in both the topography and types of holes. most fairways are generous there are several tee shots where shaping your shot is important. there is also a couple of tee shots where driver may not be the smart play. the greens are extermely small the condition of the bunkers is vastly improved. the general setting is peaceful any houses that abutt the course set back far enough thatyou don't have the feeling that your playing between houses in people's back yards.although the total yardage is short enough shots play long avoiding the feeling that every hole is driver-short iron. only the condition keeps lake shore from being a fine course. January 31, 2013
Not great but reasonable for the price Staff was very friendly. Driving range is very cool because you hit ball into a pond! The course was not very hard, it was in poor conditions, yet it is January so I wasnt expecting anything great. Cart unfortinalty died on the 4th hole but the staff was great and brought out one right away. Would probably go back in the summer. January 16, 2013
Easy, fun layout. Terrible conditions For a short, fun track this is the place to be. However, the course is in atrocious shape. If you are lucky you land in a good spot of grass, and the tee boxes are very poorly taken care of. The greens are fairly well manicured, however they are amazingly slow, they need to cut down some more. There is some fun hole, including a narrow driveable par 4. Bunkers aren't great either. Only come here if you can find a really good deal. December 31, 2012
Course has variance features Generally, greens are good condition for public course, although it doesn't drain well after soaking. Fairways are thin and hard and challenging to hit consistently. Course layout is nice and have certain challenge on every hole. Overall, great value for rate and ease of ability to get tee times. December 19, 2012
Servicable course- OK I had a good experience with the course and grounds. Not a sizzle kind of GC but I have no complaints. It is a good place to get in 18. December 16, 2012
You can't beat the price. I LIKE THIS COURSE IT'S FUN TO PLAY. COURSE IS SHORT BUT NOT EASY. YOU MUST HIT ACCURATE SHOTS. I PLAYED AT 12:00PM. 12/03/2012 PACE OF PLAY WAS GREAT PLAYED IN 3.5HRS.(3SUM). ONLY WAITED ON ONE PAR THREE. STAFF WAS GREAT. December 3, 2012
Okay It's not perfect, but okay. Relative short range from tee to flag. November 23, 2012
Great day with my son Lots of trees, narrow fairways, greens in great shape and fast.. Good condition for the day before Thanksgiving. November 22, 2012
Good course and the amount paid was a great deal! The moment I entered the pro shop I was greeted in a very friendly manner. I introduced myself and the clerk immediately acknowledged my tee time and directed me to the next available cart. He was very cordial and represented the golf course in a very professional manner. I would recommend this golf course to anyone in the area and/or anyone planning to visit. November 10, 2012
Course is in good shape. Great staff. Course is great value and nice challenge. Staff is super friendly and GolfNow is good value. November 5, 2012
Good for the $$ Its fun, cheap and gives you a little challange for any golfer. The only complaint is the greens have no consistency as far as speed and firmness. All 18 greens are different in that aspect which really messes with your putting. Some days the play is really slow and some days its play at your own pace. Overall a good place to play. Ive played here around 10 times this year. New golf carts. (NO BEER CART) Bring your own beer and snacks. October 27, 2012
good great course good shape good greens good price.It has a really good driving range. October 25, 2012
Greens in great shape for this time of year Requires shot making, challenging on some hole, need a way of letting players know pin placements.. October 21, 2012
This course is suitable for beginners. This course is suitable for beginners. This course is slightly short and not so difficult. October 20, 2012
This course is good for short game practice. This course located in good spot in Durham. Little bit short distance for driver shot but good golf course to play for beginner and elder person. Money value wise this is a good course. October 16, 2012
Fun course, slow greens. Fairways were wide and fairly forgiving, lots of water (not unexpected for a course named for the lake it abuts). Groups are sent out ad-hoc and pace of play can be slow. Slower groups let faster groups play through (not always a given). The greens were slow but playable. I'm looking forward to making it my regular mid-day practice spot. October 15, 2012
Overpriced! Someone once said, "If you don't have something positive to say about someone don't say anything." That doesn't apply to golf courses. This golf course is over priced. On wet days you should expect ball washers with rags to be available on most holes. NOT so here! Food choices limited to prepackaged sandwiches on cheap bread. And the staff is generally unreceptive. Running a golf course is a tough business these days, but discounting input from customers is not the way to encourage repeat play. Doubtful I'll return. October 8, 2012
Forget it! This course was in terrible shape. 1st time I EVER witnessed WEEDS on the GREEN! Sure they were cut low but very ugly & distracting. The ball washes were filled with either gross water or were entirely empty... with no towels. Disaster course. I would believe this course was on it's was out of business. September 24, 2012
