Lion's Paw at Ocean Ridge Plantation

This course is open off of the tee. It is also long. Very fast greens with long approach shots make it hard to score on this course. Choose your tees wisely!

We were suppose yo play Lions Paw. When we got there we were asked to play Panther Run. We agreed. Well panthers run is absolutely horrible condition. Crab grass for tee boxes and also kn thr fairway. The greens were horrible also. No good roll. Patches if grass were missing from the greens. We never play any of the 3 courses in Ocean ridge again

Course is tight with trees, so bring some balls. Whites play a bit long. Greens are rolling nice. Sandtraps were hard with mud, not well kept so try to avoid. Overall, fun round.

Greens were ok but the rest of course was in rough shape. Rough hadn’t been cut in weeks and the bunkers were not great. Weeds all throughout the fairway and had workers weed eating in fairway while we were trying to tee off. Also had a ranger tell us we can’t drive our cart to range because people get lost and don’t know where to go. Makes zero sense when I can see it from clubhouse and there are spots to park your cart at range. Only good thing was pace of play because no one was on course but makes sense now because of course conditions. Def won’t be back unless they make some major improvements.

Starting on the first hole, you notice that the greens are in poor shape along with overgrown rough and overgrown brush around every hole. The layout was fine. The staff were great but the course conditions were awful.

Some greens were bumpy. Fairways so so - grass is dormant in some spots still. No yardage markers- not even a stake. Had to pass a threesome for slow play.

On a positive note- easy to navigate- just follow cart paths to each hole. Also $43 on Golf Now is a good price compared to other courses in my area. I’d imagine that in a few months course would be visually appealing.

Bag dropoff area is run well

Very poor greens and had 6 groups on hole 13. Many better options than here unfortunately.

My group booked the 7:45. We had a frost delay until
9:15 but the food and hospitality was great. For the time of year the course was in good shape and I really enjoyed the layout. We ended up playing a second 18 to finish the day on Panthers Run with the carts in by 5 o’clock.

Weeds on the greens in some places and even portions of the green missing any type of grass. But we played in a twosome very early and were done in 3 hrs.

Im positive you know what you doing there but keep greens in condition that you can put on them at least.
