St Joseph Bay Country Club

A Hidden Gem with Big Improvements! I recently visited St. Joseph’s Bay Golf Club for the first time in a while, and I’m really impressed with the recent upgrades. The greens have improved tremendously—they’re rolling smooth, true, and in much better shape than in years past. You can tell the grounds crew has put in a lot of effort. The recent clubhouse renovations are a major highlight. It’s got a fresh, modern feel while still keeping that classic coastal charm. Whether you’re grabbing a bite or just relaxing after a round, the space is clean, comfortable, and welcoming. Overall, the course looks fantastic. The landscaping is clean, and the entire facility feels rejuvenated. You can tell there’s been a serious commitment to bringing this club up to a higher standard, and it shows. I can’t wait to see what is planned for the future. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area—great golf, friendly staff, and a much-improved experience all around!

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. Easily one of the worst golf experiences I’ve had. First off, the staff is absolutely terrible—rude, unhelpful, and clearly playing favorites. We were told we couldn’t play as a group of six, yet we saw multiple groups of women playing with five or more people, no issue. When we brought it up, they gave us an excuse that “they were members so they can do that.” It was clear they were just picking and choosing who to enforce rules against. The course itself? A complete joke. The tee boxes were chewed up, uneven, and looked like they hadn’t been maintained in months. The greens were just as bad—patchy, bumpy, and slower than anything I’ve ever played on. If you’re looking for decent playing conditions, don’t waste your time here. The pictures attached is what basically every tee box and green look like. To make matters worse, the place gives off a clear anti-military vibe—if you’ve served, don’t expect any respect or appreciation here. As for the so-called “pro,” he’s as soft as they come—completely avoids face-to-face interaction and has no interest in actual customer service. When an issue came up, a staff member came to speak with us, but instead of addressing it himself, he just stood at a distance, clearly visible, yet never had the nerve to come over and handle it directly. We even asked to speak with him. Save your money and play somewhere that actually respects its players and maintains its course.

They take good care of their field, and try to maintain the greens well. Customer service was pretty good, and the staff were all friendly. Their food was pretty good, the chorizo burger was delicious. Gave me a diet Dr pepper, instead of a normal one, but I didn't mind so much. Great price on 18 holes, and had some great distances on the holes. Overall, was a pleasant experience.
