“The Jack Nicklaus design requires solid decision making from the first tee to the eighteenth green. The prevailing wind creates a significant challenge, creating a battle on holes that otherwise would play on the easier end. Course was in great shape."

“The Peninsula does a nice job of offering a golfer a multitude of shot options during his round. The courses natural seaside vegetation and backdrops made for a very pleasurable round as you had multiple views along the sound throughout the day."
