Two Distinctly different golf
courses – Seaview Bay Course and Seaview Pines Course.
The Bay Course is challenging
enough to be a regular stop for the Ladies Professional Golf
Association Tour – ShopRite LPGA Classic.
All you need to know about the Pines Course at Seaview, is that
by any measuring method, it’s much more difficult than the Bay
Course. At first glance, the extra 161 to 484 yards, depending
on what set of tees are played, combine with the thick rows of
trees down both sides of most fairways to explain why the Pines
Course rates as tougher. The rough makes the Pines Course play
even tighter. The goal off the tee is not just keeping the ball
between the tree lines. Staying in the short grass also makes a
significant difference. Doglegs and the fact that traps at times
narrow the fairways, rather than just define them, make the
course one that demands some skill off the tee. The numbers tell
you that the Pines Course plays 6,211 yards from the white tees,
6,731 yards from the blue and 5,276 yards from the red. The
white tees course rating is 70.1 with a slope of 126, six higher
than the Bay Course. The Pines Course was built prior to World
War II and some of its holes were combined with the Bay Course
to host the 1942 PGA Championship. More than half a century
later, the layout stands the test of time and still provides a
significant test to modern golfers. The only major change is the
switch to Bent grass fairways and Kentucky Bluegrass in a 20-foot
strip down the sides of each fairway as the primary rough. The
new grass is intended to leave course conditions less
susceptible to disease and extreme weather. Two great golf
courses in one location.

First class all the way, from the
moment you arrive at the Bag Drop to the time you order your
car, you will treated like royalty by Seaview’s very
professional staff. Once on the course you will experience
either the winds and fescue of a Scottish links style course
(Bay Course) or narrow tree lined fairways and 2 incredible,
back to back, 200 plus yard par 3’s of the (Pines Course).
It truly is amazing how completely different these two courses
are, we guarantee that you will enjoy the conditions of both
courses. The Bay Course is more forgiving thus, you’ll probably
score better. Located less than a mile from the renowned
Galloway National Country Club. Have fun and enjoy! |

If world class golfing is your
reason for choosing the Seaview Marriott Golf Resort & Spa,
you’ll be pleasantly surprised to discover that the Marriott
maintains not just one, but two championship golf courses for
guest use, including the Bay Course and “Parkland-style” Pines
course. Pines Course Recently renovated, the 6,731 yard Pines
Course features narrow fairways with well-protected landing
areas. It was originally designed by the team of Howard Toomey
and William Flynn, creating a sensational golf experience. The
golf club also features one of four world-renowned Faldo Golf
Institutes, providing professional instruction to golfers of all
skill levels. SMGR & Spa
which was named to "GOLF Magazine’s" 1996 list of "Silver Medal
Resorts," features two exceptional eighteen hole regulation
courses. The Bay Course is a seaside links-style design that
features undulating greens. This course has several sand bunkers
spread throughout its design, and water hazards come into play
on a number of holes. The Pines Course offers a traditional
design. Water hazards come into play on five holes. The greens
are fast, and the fairways are tree lined. This course was
recognized by "GOLF Magazine" as one of the "Top Challenges" in
the country. In addition, "Golf Digest" rated this course as the
6th "Best Public Course" in the state for 1996. If you’re
looking for a good deal, try twilight golfing, which is
available at this unique resort. You may only walk these courses
during the off-season months. Have fun and Enjoy! |
