Nice we are doing 18 @ Montaup tomorrow for their last non-member tee time @ 2:54 (we are only a 3some so if someone wants to join let me know!). The boys wouldn't spring for Newport National (damn) so we are up in the air for a course for Friday, probably just going to do 9 at Jamestown then hit the beach. Thanks for the input.

Boy, wish I had seen this, but I wasn't in town last week (away for work).

If you're ever down here, (this includes people searching and getting to this thread) shoot me a PM. I play at GV mostly, but will travel for golf if you need a 3rd/4th!

Put up a review of the courses so others can read from an unbiased reviewer (as I'd be wicked biased as I play all the courses down here). ;)

Ahh too bad it would have been great to meet a fellow WRX'er out there!

Montaup CC was nice, I'd say a pretty good value for the price. Played 18 in 4 hours on a busy Thursday afternoon so pace of play was great. Its not the longest course in the world (sorry WRX'ers) but I had a really enjoyable time. Conditions were great, greens rolled smooth. They have some great views of some bridge and the bay on the back nine for a few holes which was awesome. I'd definitely play it again, especially because its on the way to Newport from Boston.

Jamestown is the perfect course if you are newer to the game. Pace of play was brutal Friday morning. We had to wait on the first tee for about 50 minutes since they don't take tee times (by wait on the tee I mean sit at the bar, have a few beers, and watch the British Open for 45 minutes). The course is short but again in really good shape and greens rolled great. I'm a pretty good golfer and I still had a great time at Jamestown (although I'm not super picky regarding courses golf is golf), its a super easy walk for 9 holes there is really no reason to take a cart. For the price ($19) you really can't beat it, especially around Newport as an out of towner.

I'd definitely recommend both but; Montaup over Jamestown in my opinion if you only have one round of golf. Hopefully I'll get to play GV or Newport National next time I go down!
