Last year we began distinguishing the golf course pricing as either moderate or premium. We believe it was a good and helpful idea. We are continuing with the separation but please keep in mind, Lighthouse Sound, while in the premium category, should probably be in a "super premium" category all alone. Premium courses are noted in red below.

The Bay Club
Golf Course Photo Tee up for more golfing fun for your buck at The Bay Club. Nestled amid the picturesque woodlands and natural wetlands of Maryland's celebrated Eastern Shore, The Bay Club offers 36-holes of championship golf and is located just 8 miles from Ocean City, Maryland in historic Berlin. The West Course features the area's original island green, Devil's Island. And, the East Course offers the area's only tour quality Zoysia grass fairways.



Bayside Resort Golf Club
Golf Course Photo Designed by one of golf's greatest champions, Bayside Resort Golf Club's Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course surrounds the community as if guarding against the pressures from the outside world. Special care was taken to leave Bayside's wetlands and woodlands in their natural state. As a result, dramatic views of Assawoman Bay's breathtaking coastline are visible from several holes, lending to the incomparable natural beauty of this championship course.



Baywood Greens
An "Exclusively Public" 18-Hole championship course, Baywood Greens offers golfers the most scenic and spectacular golf on the Delmarva Peninsula. Described as the "Augusta of the North", at Baywood Greens you will experience the meticulously manicured woodside and waterside nines with eight timbered bridges and 27 acres of man-made ponds, two tunnels and over 200,000 flowers, plants, shrubs and trees.

Bear Trap Dunes
Golf Course Photo Bear Trap Dunes Golf Club offers one of Delaware's most challenging golf experiences through wild, winding bentgrass fairways, natural dunes and impeccably groomed, oversized greens. This Carl M. Freeman golf facility offers 27 championship holes of scenic beauty. Golf course architect Rick Jacobson designed Bear Trap Dunes with imaginative design techniques and a diversity of lengths and tee placements, challenging golfers of every skill level.



Eagles Landing
Eagle's Landing remains one of Ocean City's most popular golf courses. Challenges abound at every turn. The marshlands protect more than just the flora and fauna -- they also have taken many a golf ball under their protection never to be returned to its rightful owner.

The Easton Club 18 Hole Championship Golf Course is a par 71, 6,501 yard layout that offers unique challenges for golfers of all abilities and is open to the public. The golf course was designed by Robert D. Rauch and Richard Mandell. The course features stately trees, dramatic waterscapes, bentgrass and a challenging island green.

Heritage Shores
Golf Course Photo Heritage Shores Club offers an exciting links style golf course and Nantucket inspired Clubhouse for comfortable inviting retreat with every visit. The Arthur Hills championship golf course, stretching just over 7,000 yards, features a signature design with water flanking a majority of the holes. With an array of strategically incorporated bunkers and undulating fairways, coupled with the water obstacles, this par 72 course will challenge and test each player's abilities. Golfers are offered a selection of five tees providing a unique experience with every round.



Lighthouse Sound
Voted Top 10 Best (Golf Magazine) & Top 5 Best (Golf Digest)

Welcome to the Links at Lighthouse Sound. Not often is a golf course architect provided a site with so much natural diversity. Our goal from the beginning was to create a course that allows Mother nature to show off her beauty.

Lighthouse Sound offers great variety in terms of visual excitement and strategy. As often as possible we tried to take advantage of the expansive views of the bay and Ocean City skyline. Ten holes border the pristine marshlands found within the 1,000 acre site while others are framed with mature hardwoods.

Man O' War
As the legendary horse it is named after, Man O' War will fast become the crown jewel of the Eastern Shore. Located on the infamous GlenRiddle Farm just 3 miles west of Ocean City, this gem of a course will provide a truly spectacular golf experience and the supreme challenge for the seasoned golfer while offering those new to golf an opportunity to fall in love with the game.

Opening the Spring of 2006, Man O' War will play 7,035 yards from the back tees and challenge golfers with distinctive double fairways, large greens, pot bunkers, and sand dunes. To preserve the beauty and significance of the historic racetrack, used to train so many champion thoroughbreds, designer Joel Weiman incorporated the track as a strategic cross hazard on three holes.

These pure windswept links of golf will also feature bentgrass tees & greens, bermuda fairways, a practice range with a dual grass tee area, chipping and putting greens, full locker room facilities, and fully stocked pro shop. Man O 'War, a division of Ruark Golf, will also be home to the GlenRiddle School of Golf and Ruth's Chris Steakhouse.

Nutters Crossing
One of the options to play on your way into or out of town. This course affords you the opportunity to get your game in order before you hit town with its open fairways. If you're on your way out you'll leave with a great feeling of accomplishment and a few birdies under your belt.

Ocean City Golf Club
The newly renovated Newport Bay course is a hit. It has quickly become one of the most requested courses in the area. The change in design leads you through some highly challenging wetland holes and if played in the afternoon you can enjoy a spectacular sunset while finishing on 18. The Seaside course continues to hold its own as the Grand daddy of Ocean City courses, and a worthy sister course to Newport Bay. Also added to the courses is the ProLink computer system to give you the best possible advice on how to play a hole and the most accurate yardage from your ball to the hole.

Ocean Pines Golf and Country Club
Golf Course Photo Ocean Pines is home to the Delmarva Peninsula's only championship 18-hole golf course designed in 1971 by the legendary Robert Trent Jones, Sr. With tree-lined fairways, heavily guarded greens and subtle undulations on the putting greens, this is one of the most challenging golf courses on the East Coast. The Ocean Pines Golf & Country Club is a membership course with limited tee times available to the public through advanced reservations. Our professionally staffed facility features a clubhouse, full service pro shop, locker room facilities, double ended driving range, sheltered driving area, practice chipping and pitching green, two practice putting greens, two practice sand bunkers, a modern learning center, and the Fairway Cafe. Services available include clinics, private lessons, club repair, club cleaning, and bag storage.



Queenstown Harbor Golf Links
When coming from the Baltimore-Washington corridor, there are a couple of courses worth breaking up the trip to the beach. Queenstown Harbor provides two of these options - the Lakes Course and the River Course. Both coures are challenging and offer spectacular vistas of the Chesapeake Bay.



River Run
This Gary Player Signature course is a perennial favorite. No wonder -- it is always in lush condition with extraordinary bent grass greens. The 9th and 18th fairways run parallel to one another and play to two well guarded greens. They are spectacular holes without the wind but even more so with the wind.

Rum Pointe
This course borders the Sinepuxent Bay with Assateague Island and the Atlantic Ocean beyond. This course offers one of the true links experiences when the wind is blowing. The front nine leaves you totally at the mercy of the elements as if you were truly on the coast of some British isle. The back nine affords a small opportunity for some relief with a brief meandering through the pines, then back to the stunning finishing holes. This Pete and P. B. Dye design course should not be missed.

Sand, Surf & Sun Links
The staff continues to earn its reputation for being the most hospitable in the area. The OuterLinks confounds with its tight fairways and numerous water hazards making it the course most likely to take the most balls. The InnerLinks, the original of the two, shows off the Ault, Clark and Associates design work at its finest. It's easy to find your ball most places but not necessarily easy to get it to the hole from where you find it.

War Admiral
Golf Course Photo Man O'War's sister course, War Admiral, is routed through mature forest and offers a completely different golf experience. The course is sheltered from the wind, but provides a demanding test from the tees. The site's beautiful tidal marsh comes into play on five dramatic holes, offering amazing views. Rugged, breathtaking bunkers reminiscent of golf's great past is the signature of the War Admiral Course. From the rear tees the course plays to a par of 72 and a length of 6,889 yards.
